when to listen

to listen to others...

I agree, but I can't change the sentence.

This sentence is fine as it is. And since people already submitted translations to it, it should no longer be changed to conform to other languages. (Doing so would mean it no longer conforms with the new Dutch and Finnish translations.)

Instead I unlinked this sentence from #1647055, #1647058 and #1647053, which all have a word meaning "listen" instead of "follow".

You can submit the sentence "A wise leader knows when to listen." as a new translation of one of the three original sentences.

I think it's a robot.
This record doesn't belong me. It was added by someone else.
