On how to improve the executive power of middle managers in enterprises

Middle managers, whether as executors or leaders, must complete their tasks through others. To be a "customer-oriented" manager, we should consciously improve the following eight abilities:

Comprehension: Before you do anything, you must first find out what the boss wants you to do, and then take this as the goal to grasp the direction of doing things. This is very important. Don't start with a little knowledge, and in the end you will get twice the result with half the effort, or even give up all your previous efforts. If you think about one thing clearly, it is better to do ten things hastily and get twice the result with half the effort.

Planning ability: to carry out any task, we must make a plan, list all tasks in order of priority, assign subordinates to undertake them one by one, and watch the end by themselves. Focus on the future development of the department and constantly sort out the plans for tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, next week, next month and even next year. In the implementation and audit of the plan, we should grasp the key issues in advance, and we should not affect the important work that should be done because of trivial work. It should be clear that doing 20% of the important work well is equivalent to creating 80% of the performance.

Command ability: No matter how carefully planned, if it can't be effectively implemented, it still can't produce the expected effect. In order to make subordinates have the same direction to carry out the formulated plan, appropriate command is necessary.

To command subordinates, we should first consider the distribution of work, detect the corresponding relationship between subordinates and work, and also consider the way of command. Bad tone or unclear goal are really bad orders. Good command can stimulate the will of subordinates and enhance their sense of responsibility and mission. It should be clear that the highest command art is that subordinates can command themselves.

Control ability: Control means tracking and checking, ensuring the goal is achieved and the plan is implemented. Although talking about control will make people feel uncomfortable, the operation of enterprises has its very realistic side. Some things will cause direct and indirect losses to enterprises if they are not controlled in time. However, if the control is too urgent or insufficient, it will also have the opposite effect: too strict control will make subordinates dissatisfied, and poor control may make it difficult to maintain the work discipline at the scene. Obviously, the most ideal control is to let subordinates realize self-control through target management.

Coordination ability: Any work should be successfully completed if it can make a perfect plan, issue appropriate orders and take necessary control according to the above requirements, but in fact, most of the time of the supervisor must be spent on coordination. Coordination includes not only the internal coordination between superiors and subordinates and departments, but also the interests coordination with external customers, relevant units and competitors. Poor coordination between any party will affect the completion of the implementation plan. You know, the best coordination relationship is to achieve * * *.

Empowering ability: anyone's ability is limited. As a top manager, you can't do everything yourself like a salesman, but you should be clear that your duty is to cultivate subordinates to grow together, give yourself opportunities and create opportunities for their growth. A person can't achieve his career. Subordinate is a mirror of oneself, and it is also the carrier of a person's intelligence and ability extension. Only by giving subordinates responsibility, power and benefits can subordinates have a sense of responsibility and accomplishment. It's better to know that people in a department think things with their own heads, so that subordinates can be motivated and you can let go of your hands and feet to do important things. Why not? Remember that to achieve subordinates is to achieve yourself.

Judgment ability: judgment is very important for a manager. Business operations are complex, and it is often necessary for the supervisor to know the ins and outs of the matter in order to find the real crux of the problem and propose solutions. This requires insight into opportunities and planning ahead. You know, only in this way can we turn the crisis into a turning point and finally a good opportunity.

Innovation ability innovation is an important symbol to measure whether a person or an enterprise has core competitiveness. In order to improve the execution ability, besides the above abilities, it is more important to have a strong sense of innovation all the time, which requires continuous learning, which is very different from the learning based solely on mastering knowledge in universities. It requires everyone to regard the work process itself as a systematic learning process, and constantly discover, study and solve problems from work. The process of solving problems is also a process of innovation. So we can seriously think about whether there are innovative ways to make implementation stronger, faster and better. It should be clear that there is no limit to innovation, and only innovation can survive.

Leadership needs to improve the process of a department manager's task execution, in fact, it is also a process of improving his leadership for department employees. Because to improve the execution of the executive department, not only managers can complete it, but also all the staff of the department need Qi Xin's cooperation. In the final analysis, it is necessary to improve leadership to improve execution and improve leadership.

So how can we improve leadership? In addition to improving the above eight abilities, there are two most important things:

1 Learn to look at the enterprise from the boss's eyes.

In the boss's view, management is very simple, that is, two things: first, expand business scope and increase business income; There is also to reduce management costs and control operating expenses. In fact, these two things, in the final analysis, are one thing. Income minus costs and expenses is profit. So in the final analysis, the boss is looking at profits, and profits should come from management.

Learn to lead from being led.

In the eyes of leaders, leadership is also very simple, that is, two things: first, employing people, using virtue in the inner circle, using talents in the outer circle, using people's strengths and allowing people to be short; The second is motivation, solving people's difficulties and remembering people's achievements. Guide subordinates to run forward through positive incentives, and push them forward through negative incentives. You know, any leader starts from his subordinates, and no one can become a leader in one step. In the process of everyone's growth, you will experience many leaders, big and small. As long as you study hard, whether you are a good leader or a bad leader, you can learn from both positive and negative aspects, which is very precious for you to be a good leader in the future.
