Speech On Public Ministers, A Ruler Of State And...

Concerning public ministers, a ruler should field competent ministers who seek to serve the state and not their own interests. Essentially, public servants or bureaucrats could fall under this same criteria of selfless service. This does not mean that ministers should go without rewards due to them for good service, but should a minister think himself able to be the ruler they should be removed. Good public servants will contribute to the reputation of the head of state and incompetent ministers will reflect poorly on the ruler. This is similar to a well known concept of leadership where the leader accepts responsibility for both the success and failings of their subordinates regardless of if the leader actually had any influence in the situations that transpire. When dealing with ministers and advisors it is important for a ruler to acknowledge their advice but not take it as absolute truth or in the best interest of the ruler. It is very possible that advisors will have ulterior mo tives and attempt to influence the ruler for their own gain. A ruler must be open to advice but be swift with discarding manipulative advisors for their own sake and the sake of the state because a manipulative advisor is not acting in the best interest of the state. Given all of this advice, a ruler who is recently found themselves in power will be more successful than any of their predecessors because they have demonstrated in history the proper and improper courses of action for a state.
