第一則：台灣護照購票受阻 春秋航空澄清
大陸春秋航空在9月22日爆出爭議，傳出自9月12日起一度不承認台灣護照可購買境外航班機票，客服表示此舉是基於「一個中國原則」，要求旅客必須使用中華人民共和國認可的護照，有人購買大陸至日本航班時遭退票。
春秋航空台灣首席代表丁彥俊下午澄清，問題源於系統升級錯誤，隨後恢復正常，目前台灣人仍可用台灣護照購買境外航班機票。
Taiwanese Passport Flight Block? Spring Airlines Clarifies
On September 22, Spring Airlines sparked controversy after it temporarily stopped accepting Taiwanese passports for international flights from September 12. Customer service said this followed the “One China Principle,” requiring passports recognized by China. Some travelers booking flights from mainland China to Japan had their tickets canceled.
Spring Airlines’ chief representative in Taiwan, Ding Yanjun, clarified that a system upgrade error caused the issue. Operations are now normal, and Taiwanese travelers can still use their passports for international flights.
第二則：法國正式承認巴勒斯坦 國際高度關注
法國總統馬克宏在9月22日宣布正式承認巴勒斯坦國，他稱此舉是「對哈瑪斯的挫敗」，並強調維護「兩國方案」。
此舉激怒美國與以色列，白宮表示總統不同意此決定，認為對解救人質與結束加薩衝突無助。目前約150國承認巴勒斯坦，但法國的決定特別受矚目，因其國內有歐洲最大穆斯林與猶太社群，以巴議題極敏感。
French Recognition of Palestine, Sparking Worldwide Attention
On September 22, French President Emmanuel Macron announced that France officially recognizes the State of Palestine. He said the move is “a setback for Hamas” and stressed the importance of maintaining the “two-state solution.”
The move upset the United States and Israel. The White House said the president disagreed, believing it would not help rescue hostages or end the Gaza war. About 150 countries recognize Palestine, but France’s decision drew attention because it has Europe’s largest Muslim and Jewish communities, making the issue very sensitive.
第三則：林佳龍訪奧地利 陸方批「台獨死路一條」
外交部長林佳龍近日出訪奧地利，參與音樂會並與議員交流，中國外交部隨即重申「一中原則」，並批評相關行動為「搞台獨死路一條」。
中國強調，反對任何國家與台灣發展官方往來，認為「兩個中國」與「一中一台」的圖謀終將失敗，突顯兩岸在外交空間上的持續對立。
Lin Chia-lung Visits Austria, Beijing Warns “Taiwan Independence Is a Dead End”
Taiwan’s Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung recently visited Austria, attending a concert and meeting with lawmakers. In response, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated the “One China” principle and criticized the trip as “a dead end for Taiwan independence.”
Beijing stressed its opposition to any country engaging in official exchanges with Taiwan, stating that attempts to promote “two Chinas” or “one China, one Taiwan” are doomed to fail, underscoring the continued cross-strait tensions in the diplomatic arena.
第四則：主管推動改變需拿捏速度 平衡真誠與效率
研究指出，主管推動改變時，速度過快恐遭質疑不真誠，過慢則被視為不積極。涉及困難的改變時，需要循序漸進，並清楚解釋背後的思考過程，才能取得員工的信任與理解。
專家建議，主管應重視所有回饋，主動解析問題並妥善管理員工期待。唯有在速度與真誠感之間找到平衡，並依照改變的難度分階段推進，才能確保改變順利落實並獲得團隊支持。
Leaders Must Balance Speed and Sincerity When Driving Change
Research indicates that when leaders drive change, moving too quickly may be seen as insincere, while moving too slowly can be viewed as passive. For more difficult changes, a gradual approach with clear explanations of the reasoning is necessary to gain employees’ trust and understanding.
Experts suggest that managers should value all feedback, actively address issues, and carefully manage employee expectations. Only by balancing speed with authenticity and advancing in stages based on the complexity of the change can leaders ensure smooth implementation and secure team support.
