Chapter 282: Courage to take responsibility

Lucy said softly, "Steve, your courageous attitude is very good, but with your previous position and work content, your responsibility in this matter is very small, so you don't have to blame yourself too much." ”

She paused, and then said: "The responsibility is relatively large, and the H6 project leaders and technical management personnel such as Director Qiao are relatively large, among them, especially General Manager Li is the biggest responsible person, I hope they can all learn from this experience." ”

Although the expression on Lucy's face was calm, there was a strong sense of reproach in her words.

Xu Xincheng hurriedly said: "Lucy, I talked to General Manager Li yesterday, he felt deeply remorseful, said that he will apologize to you in person, the failure of H6 is the biggest failure in his career of more than ten years, and it is the biggest failure since the company was founded two years ago, he is willing to take full responsibility for this, he will ask the company to punish him." In addition, he has asked the Propaganda Department to include the H6 failure in the company's major event file, as the company's most failed case, in order to set an example for those who come after; at the same time, all the company's senior management and all the personnel involved in the H6 project will hold a special meeting to review, summarize and review the entire project. ”

What Xu Xincheng said was what General Manager Li said when he called him yesterday, and he felt that at this time, he should say a few words for General Manager Li in front of Lucy. He did not want to exonerate him from responsibility, and it was not what General Manager Li wanted him to do, which has always been responsible, he just expounded General Manager Li's attitude of taking responsibility bravely.

Yesterday afternoon, Director Qiao also gave him a call, he said, for this matter, General Manager Li even told Chairman Lu Hongfei that he was willing to take the blame and resign, but fortunately, although Chairman Lu was also dissatisfied with the defeat of H6, he did not put all the responsibility on General Manager Li, but he also assumed the leadership responsibility, saying that he should not be in the technology and other aspects of the conditions are not mature, rashly ask General Manager Li to formally enter the mobile phone market, this is a strategic mistake, belongs to his fault.

Lucy said calmly: "In this matter, no one shirks their responsibility, which shows that everyone is a brave person, which is very good." However, the real courage to take responsibility is not to blindly blame yourself, apologize, or even resign. ”

"Ahh

"Yes, Chairman Lu told me, and said some good things for General Manager Li, and even vouched for him. In fact, even if Chairman Lu does not vouch for him, I will not agree to his resignation. The company had just paid so much tuition for him, and of course we couldn't make him resign. ”

"Huh?" Xu Xincheng didn't understand Lucy's words.

"I carefully read General Manager Li's personal resume, understand his work in the past two years, and have a deep chat with him three times, I have a certain understanding of him, plus your evaluation of him, Chairman Lu's evaluation of him, and the evaluation of his colleagues in the company, I think that he is excellent in terms of character, mentality, management ability, etc., is an excellent professional manager, and has great potential to grow into an excellent professional manager.

The defeat of H6 was the biggest failure in General Manager Li's career of more than ten years, but we can take a more long-term view, after all, General Manager Li's career is at least more than 20 years away. For a professional manager, the experience of failure is as important as the experience of success, and sometimes, it can even be said that it is more important, as long as he can learn from it, as long as he can survive, he will have a greater possibility of becoming a truly excellent professional manager.

Therefore, the company's losses caused by the defeat of H6 are willing to be regarded as tuition fees paid for the growth of General Manager Li. ”

Xu Xin was still very worried about General Manager Li's prospects, and as soon as Lucy said this, he knew that he could rest assured. Lucy is so open-minded and has such a long-term vision, which is really a great blessing for General Manager Li and a great fortune for the company. If it is replaced by someone else, there is a great possibility that General Manager Li will suffer.

Lucy continued: "I have a lot of professional managers in several companies, and I have a lot of requirements and conditions for hiring professional managers, and one of the things that is special is that I like to hire people who have experienced big failures and can learn from them and quickly rise from them. On the battlefield, young generals who have not tasted defeat or even a major defeat are the most likely to suffer total defeat; on the contrary, young generals who have tasted defeat or even a major defeat are likely to grow into the best leaders. ”

Xu Xincheng nodded hurriedly and firmly, not only saying that he understood Lucy's words, but also that he completely agreed with her point of view.

As for Director Qiao and other H6 project leaders and technical managers, the same is true, and the company can be regarded as paying tuition for them. The failure of H6 is the biggest failure of the company since its inception for Hongfei's AI division, but it is not necessarily a bad thing for Sino-American Xinfei, or we can turn this bad thing into a good thing. As for how to change, when we just discussed Zhang Ruimin's deeds of smashing the refrigerator, we already had a preliminary plan, and on this matter, please come up with a more detailed plan within five days. ”

"Okay. We must turn bad things into good things. ”

The look on Lucy's face suddenly became solemn, and her tone became very serious, "However, here, I must emphasize two points, first, in our company, the same mistake is only allowed to be made once at most; second, after the Hongfei AI Division was officially merged into Sino-American Xinfei, I will not allow such a thing as the defeat of H6 to happen." ”

The sudden change in Lucy's attitude made Xu Xincheng a little surprised, but he immediately adjusted, management should be like this, there should be relaxation.

Besides, the two points Lucy just said, that is the bottom line of a company, and himself, General Manager Li and Director Qiao and others also have the same idea, "Lucy, in fact, General Manager Li and Director Qiao also have that idea and determination. In addition, everyone wants to be able to make up for their mistakes by creating greater value for the company. ”

Yes, this is also the common idea of himself, General Manager Li and Director Qiao, etc., it is necessary to take responsibility, and self-blame should also be, however, they can't blame themselves endlessly, rather than that, it is better to make up for their own mistakes by creating greater value for the company, no, it is not enough to "make up", it is necessary to create value for the company five times or even ten times.

Lucy smiled lightly and said, "On smartphones and computers, everyone has the opportunity to make up for their mistakes. I hope everyone can grasp it. ”

When Xu Xincheng heard this, he immediately came to his senses, yes! Aren't smart phones and smart computers an excellent opportunity for them to make up for their mistakes? Moreover, if they do a good job, they should be able to create value for the company by 10 or even 20 times.

He hurriedly said, "Yes, Lucy. Not only do we have to use this opportunity to make up for our mistakes, but we also want to create 10 or even 20 times the value for the company. ”

At this time, the original sense of guilt in his heart had long been replaced by the eagerness and determination to roll up his sleeves and do a great job.

Lucy nodded appreciatively to him: "Very good, this is the attitude and spirit that a person who has the courage to take responsibility should have." Next, let's explore how to avoid the failure of H6 again, and at the same time, how to create greater value for the company. ”
