Joe the "nose to the grindstone"

Joe was put in charge of an engineering team at a packaging plant to tackle a difficult task.He first meets with seven members to plan projects and arrange personal assignments.Joe pointed out that whether the work could be signed on a long-term contract was closely related, and employees took extensive notes during the meeting to show that they understood the difficulty of the task.Joe was very happy when he saw this. "Everyone must be ready to go," he thought.There were only four months left before the crossing.

The weeks went by, and Joe was busy with his work.Give your employees a nudge once in a while.However, he still did not find the actual problems of the team at this time, they did not become a unified whole.

Once Joe overheard a conversation between two employees and learned that the engineering group's marketing and logistics were seriously out of sync."This must be settled at once," thought Joe.An emergency meeting was called, and the team (especially Joe) worked overtime for the rest of the month to get the project finished two months after the deadline.Senior management was very unhappy with the delay, but fortunately the new client was saved and the important contract was secured.

Joe was relieved to have the project finished, but the experience wasn't easy for him.For example, the members of the team are not focused, they often fail to complete tasks in vain, and occasionally they disagree about the goals of the project. These problems are handled by him personally.

Joe's management style is "nose to the grind.he always does the unfinished work and solves the problems his employees have.Sure, the team had to work together to solve problems, but Joe was doing too much as an executive and his work was not as effective as expected.

There are too many things going on for managers to have a whole period of free time, and their time is interrupted by so many things.This kind of management style is at best equivalent to the management level of the school team. The problem is that they are negligent in management and lack the consciousness to lead the team and train members to complete tasks.

There are many problems with hard work, and Joe's team is not as productive as expected for the following reasons:

1. Inadequate planning

The team has no written plan to follow, and each member has his own understanding of work objectives and tasks, lacking a unified understanding.The result is conflict, duplication, and sometimes not getting the work done.

2. Lack of regular summaries of achievements

Joe rarely talks to his employees, does not hold group meetings, and rarely summarizes the team's work status unless he encounters particularly significant problems. Therefore, members rarely have the opportunity to discuss work progress and some difficult issues together.

3. Just keep your head down

Joe is not a team leader worthy of the name.As a whole or individually, it does not train and supervise in the same way that coaches do.He is the typical team leader who keeps his head down and takes on too many chores himself.

Bian Que three brothers

King Wen of Wei asked bian Que, a famous doctor, "You three brothers are all skilled in medicine. Which one is the best?" 

Bian Que replied, "My eldest brother is the best, my second is next, and I am the worst." 

The king asked again, "Then why are you the most famous?" 

Bian Que replied, "My brother treats a disease before it starts.Because people didn't know he could cure the disease beforehand, his fame didn't spread beyond our family.My second brother treats a disease at the onset of the disease.People expect him to treat only minor ailments, so he is only a minor celebrity in our village.And I bian Que treatment, is the treatment of serious illness.Most people see me doing major operations such as draining blood through the meridians and applying medicine to the skin, so they think I am the most skillful, so I am famous all over the country. 

King Wen repeatedly nodded and said, "What you said is very good." 

Control after the event is not as good as control in the event, and control in the event is not as good as control in advance. Unfortunately, most business operators fail to realize this point and seek to make up for the significant losses caused by wrong decisions.Good reparation, of course, is famous, but more often than not it is too late to mend. 

Computers will never be able to replace the most important talent a senior corporate leader has -- the ability to make good judgment.

Boss a bollocking

Two years ago, a reporter friend went to a township enterprise for an interview. The entrepreneur and chairman of the enterprise, who was a little well-known in the local area, was sitting in his office sulking.It turned out that in the morning at the board meeting he put forward the juice production project again, and it was rejected.

When talking about the management of the enterprise, he complained repeatedly: nowadays the enterprise is more and more difficult to manage.He said: "When the company was founded, although it was small and the employees were not highly educated, everything was satisfactory.Now the scale has increased, the profit has increased several times, and a large number of highly educated talents have been recruited. Normally, the work should be more convenient, but in fact, my words are no longer effective, and there are often naysayers.Take juice production as an example. You know, a bottle of Huiyuan or Rumeng costs ten or twenty yuan in restaurants.There's plenty of fruit in this place, and if it's on the juice line, think of the profits!However, several deputy bosses disagreed, saying that juice is popular at present, but in the long run..."

Two years later, the chairman met with journalists again at the National Association of Model Workers in Beijing.When chatting, a reporter friend asked him whether the juice processing project was later on. He took a long breath and said: "Fortunately, I didn't. If I had, I would be burdened now.There was one in the neighboring county, and Old Ben took it."

[inspired]

When someone in an organization says no, it's not necessarily a bad thing.Behind a successful enterprise, there is an able man.At the beginning, these talented people won market share for the company with their courage and keen market insight.However, with the deepening of the reform, the economic system is becoming more and more perfect, the business environment has undergone major changes, a large number of new knowledge, new technology application, increasingly fierce competition, business risks are also further increased.Reality forces enterprises to high-level transformation, high-level enterprises need high-level talents to match.If the enterprise wants to continue to gallop "shopping mall", rely on alone obviously not good.Entrepreneurs should first overcome and surpass themselves, and carry out comprehensive updates from knowledge structure to business philosophy.One of the most important aspects of overcoming yourself is to abandon self-centeredness, to learn from others.

Once the boss of a well-known enterprise said: 20 years ago, I was the strongest, leading everyone forward, 20 years later, I stood behind and watched everyone forward.

As a boss, it is not always a good thing for employees to be submissive in front of you.Celebrate when someone says "no" to you.

If you continue to follow the path of past success, the path that awaits you will be one of death.

Not know oneself

King Zhuang of The State of Chu, known as one of the "Five Overlords of the Spring and Autumn Period", felt that chu was very powerful and insisted on attacking Yue.Du Zi, his minister, came forward and asked, "Your Majesty, why do you want to attack the state of Yue?"King Zhuang said, "We must take advantage of its weakness and turmoil to attack it."But I'm worried about it," Du said.The wisdom of man is like his own eyes, which can see a hundred paces away, but can not see his eyelashes.As you can imagine, chu itself was weak after its defeat in the war with the Qin and Jin states, and zhuang Zhuang was also in turmoil at home.Our weakness and turmoil is no better than yue Ah!Or use the main energy on self-improvement!"

It is often said that "the biggest problem of managers is not that they cannot see problems, but the most fatal problem is that they only see other people's problems but cannot see their own problems. 

Being "unblinking" is a common problem for managers.There are many entrepreneurs who, when they succeed, become arrogant and think they are invincible.As the saying goes, "Whoever God wants to destroy first, he must make him mad first." The failure of many enterprises and entrepreneurs just starts from their success.

Women entrepreneurs

There is a female entrepreneur, engaged in a subdivision of the food industry, most of the products exported to South Korea, Japan, has achieved the first place in the industry.Although her career is very successful, she has been plagued by family problems.For this reason, she considered giving up her career and returning to civilian life several times.Performance in life is: do not want to go to the company, whenever subordinates call to ask for instructions on the work of boredom, has no enterprise, often blunt child temper, even go to high-grade shopping malls, high-grade places can not experience money to bring their own fun and pleasure. 

She first coached for an hour.Soon after her coaching, she saw her problems clearly and made a distinction between her troubled family and her career. 

What's more, she has accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with all kinds of difficulties and thorny problems since she has been working in the enterprise for more than ten years. In the process of seemingly contradictory career and family, she sees more possibilities.After an hour of coaching, when she went out to greet her subordinate to come in, her subordinate was surprised to ask her: Your face looks better a lot, your face also stretches a lot, seems to be much happier, do you take any magic medicine? 

In the short coaching process of more than one hour, because I saw more possibilities and hopes, ALL kinds of problems in the past also found solutions and answers, the mood stretched."The face is made by the heart." When the knot in the heart is untied, the face changes naturally, and the smile begins to emerge. 

The head of decision

"Dream Stream pen Talk" records: Haizhou governor Sun Mian has a good economic mind, he heard that the shipping department is ready to set up three salt farms in Haizhou, they firmly opposed, and put forward a lot of reasons.Later shipping department personally to haizhou to talk about the setting of salt, or sun Mian top back.Local people stopped Sun's sedan chair and told him about the benefits of salt farms. Sun explained, "You don't know how to plan for the long term.Officials can make a profit by buying salt, but if they cannot sell it because they have too much salt, they will suffer the consequences after 30 years." However, Sun mian's warning was not heeded. 

Soon after he left office, three salt farms were built in Haizhou, and decades later, criminal cases increased, with more bandits, corvee labor and taxes than in the past.As a result of the transport, sales are not smooth, the hoarding of salt is increasing day by day, salt farm losses and debts, many people are bankrupt.At that time, the people began to understand that it was really a disaster to build salt flats here. 

[Case Analysis]

Temporary interests are obvious, and people tend to pursue them without considering the consequences. This phenomenon is the same in ancient and modern times.When you see a profitable business, you rush into it. The early movers may make a profit, but the late movers often suffer the consequences. There are countless examples. 

As an enterprise operator, when making a business decision, we must consider all aspects of factors, and can not be blinded by temporary interests. 

A team leader must learn to exert the power of the collective, especially when making decisions concerning the fate of the enterprise.Never because of a fever in the head, pat on the head to make a wrong decision and destroy their business life results ah. 

Head pat for decision, chest pat for command, thigh pat for mistake, butt pat for pursuit.This four-beat leadership needs to be rethought.

Train of thought to open

There was an entrepreneur in Nanjing. After a new product was launched, a competitor imitated his product at a lower price than his, forming an obvious competitive situation with him.For this reason, he found some consulting companies, and these companies also gave a lot of solutions, such as advertising, strengthening the brand investment, reducing the price of the product and so on, although the client invested a lot of money to solve the problem, but still little effect. 

After more than half an hour of coaching, the client saw many opportunities from the competition.He not only saw a lot of room for growth from the competition, but also realized more clearly that once he made up for the growth of this homework, the original competition can not be called competition, but will become a power to promote his great development. 

Finally, he found the most suitable way to solve the problem: increase sales efforts, enhance product quality, better improve service, make products more refined and specialized, and make them the first in the industry.Once you build your own system, you can integrate your competitors and become your own suppliers and partners. 

He later concluded: 'When I identify someone as my competitor, IT means I'm as low as he is.'When I open my mind and try more ways to do it, all my competitors will no longer be my competitors, but my partners and even part of my success.The best competition is to eliminate competition and turn rivals into collaborators.
