In the middle of an old farmer's farmland, there is a big stone lying horizontally for many years. This stone broke several plowshares of the old farmer and damaged his cultivator. There was nothing the old farmer could do about it, and that boulder became a lingering heart disease when he was farming.
One day, after another plow broke down, I remembered the endless troubles caused by that boulder and finally made up my mind to end it. So he found a crowbar and put it under the boulder, but he was surprised to find that the stone was not as deep and thick as he thought. He can pry it up with a little strength, then break it with a sledgehammer and clean it out of the ground. In a flash, the old farmer's mind flashed the scene that he had been troubled by boulders for many years, and then he thought that he could get rid of this headache earlier, and he couldn't help smiling bitterly.
From this fable, we can understand a truth in enterprise management: when encountering a problem, we should find out the root cause immediately, and if there is a problem, we should deal with it immediately without delay.
In enterprise management activities, we often encounter recurring problems or undesirable phenomena. If you avoid medical treatment or delay things, it will inevitably cause difficulties for enterprises, even make the production and business activities of enterprises unable to proceed normally, and even threaten the survival of enterprises in serious cases. Therefore, we should not avoid the frequent problems in enterprise management, but should seize the signs, investigate in time, trace back to the source and find out the ways and methods to solve them as soon as possible.
Spider repair network
There are two spiders living in a dilapidated temple, one under the eaves and the other on the shrine. One day, the roof of the old temple collapsed. Fortunately, the two spiders were not injured. They were still busy weaving webs on their own turf. A few days later, the spider in the niche found that his web was always broken. A bird flies by and a small wind blows, which will keep it busy for a long time. It asked the spider under the eaves, "Our silk is no different from where we work." . Why is my net always broken, but yours is good? "The spider under the eaves said with a smile," Don't you find that the eaves above our heads are gone? "
It is important to repair the network, but it is more important to understand the reasons for the disconnection. It is often seen that managers are busy around. These managers who act as firefighters in management, like that busy spider, never consider the root of the problem.
Eagle feeding
The eagle is the strongest of all birds. According to the research of zoologists, this may be related to the eating habits of eagles.
Eagles give birth to four or five baby eagles at a time. Because their nests are very high, the food they hunt back can only be fed to one baby eagle at a time. The feeding method of the eagle is not based on the principle of equality, but is given to whoever catches the fierce eagle. In this case, the thin eagle died without food, and the fiercest one survived. Generation after generation, the eagle family is getting stronger and stronger.
This is a story of survival of the fittest, which tells us that "fairness" cannot be an accepted principle in an organization. Without an appropriate elimination system, an organization will often delay its evolution because of small benevolence, and will naturally be eliminated in a competitive environment. NBD
Ji Chang Xue Jian
Jichang learned archery from Wei Fei. Wei Fei didn't teach him specific archery skills, but let him learn to stare at the target without blinking. It took Ji Chang two years to practice the kung fu of not blinking even if the vertebral body pricked his eyes.
Wei Fei further asked Ji Chang to practice his eyesight. The standard should be to enlarge smaller things clearly, just like looking at them at close range. Ji Chang practiced hard for three years, and finally he could regard the smallest louse as the size of a wheel. Jichang drew his bow and shot through the lice with one arrow. After learning the result, Wei Fei was very satisfied with the apprentice. To learn archery, you must first practice your eyesight. If the basic actions are solid, the application can be ever-changing. The same is true for the operation of enterprises. Basic personnel, finance, technology and business should be mastered well, and the follow-up can make a great difference. Running a business is like repairing a tower. If you just want to lay bricks and forget to tamp the foundation, the tower will collapse one day.
