Now to talk about cooperation with people, I have three conditions, one of which is that the other party must be a young person.
Yes, communicating with young people is not easy, and sometimes their straightforward character even makes me think twice about how to react. However, I believe that the feeling is two-way, maybe while I was guessing them, they also felt old-fashioned when they said something to me.
I admire young people who are passionate, energetic, and enthusiastic. Not only because they can show unlimited creativity, but also because they will continue to explore new methods in order to transform the concept into concrete and feasible solutions, show strong execution, and bring countless surprises. Some people may think that young people are impulsive and willful and often do not follow the rules. But in fact, as long as the results are satisfactory, who will hold them for violating the rules? It's just that no matter the ending is good or bad, we all have to take responsibility. If we succeed, we must strive for perfection. If we fail, we must learn with humility.
Zeng Junhua believes that young people are not resisting communication with the previous generation, but are not willing to be preconceived. (Provided by the author)
I don't think young people resist communicating with the previous generation, they just don't want to be preconceived to make a conclusion. If every remark is regarded as wind in the ear, you will feel helpless if it is you? When working with people, the most fear is to encounter colleagues who refuse to communicate. This kind of people never listen carefully. No matter what your opinion is, they will always respond in a perfunctory manner, believing that their direction is the most correct. In other words, it is a little authoritarian.
Many people mistakenly believe that leaders are supposed to be tough and must stick to their own views; otherwise, they will be made irresponsible remarks by others, and they will be regarded as "unbeatable," and ultimately nothing will be achieved. But in my opinion, being kind and flowing does not mean following the flow. Since ancient times, most self-serving people have failed. Especially when we are in this unpredictable age, we must protect ourselves to keep pace with the times and strengthen our resilience. If a person is unwilling to listen to opinions or accept any new ideas, how can we keep up with the times or even deal with emergencies? What about the situation?
As early as 2001, some scholars have put forward the concept of "Distributed Leadership", advocating that the leader of the team should not be the responsibility of a small group of people; on the contrary, everyone in the team should play the role of leader and participate together Planning, execution, decision-making and other links. Compared with the previous "Yiyantang", it is more helpful to enhance the individual's sense of participation and mission, which in turn promotes overall efficiency and flexibility. Unfortunately, not every company or organization can adopt this emerging governance model. Regardless of whether it is a public organization or a private enterprise, many still maintain a management model of reporting at various levels, making their operations lack flexibility. Changes are not a matter of overnight, and only the active participation of all levels can remove the rust of the gears and run smoothly again.
A good leader does not need to engage in a "PR Show". When you are truly open, it is not difficult to understand society, groups or the market. The problem is always the mentality.
Tseng Junhua pointed out that always be alert to yourself and don't become the disgusting "Old Seafood". (Provided by the author)
The famous British entrepreneur Richard Branson once published an article called "Best Advice: Listen More Than You Talk", which mentioned that if you want to be a good leader, you must first learn to be a good listener. We have all been fresh people in the workplace and have experienced what it's like not to be valued. No matter how rich you are in the future, you can keep an open mind and listen carefully to the feelings of your subordinates. Always be alert to yourself, don't become the disgusting "Old Seafood", we should do our best to support young people and help them realize their ideal future. As for you who are new to the workplace, don't be afraid to be a "problem teenager." All your thoughts and insights may help the company find a position in the turbulence and lay a more stable foundation for development.
Zeng Junhua pointed out that the long and young generations can abandon their prejudices and re-recognize and understand each other, and they will certainly complement each other. (Provided by the author)
The communication problem between two generations is like a Luban lock. Luban lock is a building block assembled by the principle of tenon and tenon. Although it is difficult to solve, it is by no means unsolvable. After all, the growth backgrounds and values of the two generations are very different, and conflicts and frictions will inevitably occur when the two generations get along, and they will gradually evolve into an invisible gap. If the two generations can abandon their prejudices and get to know and understand each other again, they will be able to complement each other, just like the convex and concave of Lu Bansuo, it is the ultimate cooperative relationship.
