Chapter 220 [New Sales Director (II)]
After talking about the installation department, Liang Chengde said to Guo in detail: "Manager Guo, after the retail agents are set up, each will prepare a certain amount of spot, which is equivalent to us having several more small warehouses." In the near future, you should pay attention to the distribution work and actively cooperate with the business development needs of various retail agents. At the same time, do a good job of statistics to see how much storage space can be saved for us, and what should be reduced should be reduced to save costs for the company. ”
Guo Shen said: "Okay. However, according to your judgment, the distribution and inspection and acceptance work will increase significantly, and our department may also face the pressure of insufficient manpower. ”
Liang Chengde smiled and said: "Since the establishment of the company, the development speed has been very fast, and it is natural to continue to replenish personnel and expand the team in order to keep up with the needs of work. Now everyone thinks that there is a shortage of manpower, which means that we are improving. Our five departments, in fact, are a whole, and we must help each other and work together to solve difficulties in order to exert greater energy. What's more, this difficulty is only temporary now, don't worry, I will solve this problem for you as soon as possible. ”
……
……
After the meeting ended, everyone came out of the conference room, and Liang Chengde walked inside alone, he still used Shen Tai'an's previous sales director's office, which was not in the same direction as others.
The other five went to the other side. Guo Shen and the others chatted casually about the content of the meeting just now, and walked to the foyer, but they didn't see Mo Fan say anything. They are all general minds, President Liang is the new official, and he wants to show his strength and make a name for himself, which everyone can understand. But seeing that the year is over, if something happens and affects the distribution of the year-end bonus, then who should I talk to? If Mr. Liang can't bear this responsibility, why not wait until the end of the New Year to put those three fires, how good it is to be stable at this time.
Several people exchanged glances with each other, and finally Chen Jianjun asked: "Mr. Mo, do you think the problem of manpower shortage can be solved a year ago?"
Mo Fan said, "Maybe." Everyone try to do things well, and don't think too much about anything else. ”
This was a bit ambiguous, but it didn't put pressure on them, and the four of them felt a little relieved when they heard it, and immediately went their separate ways.
It's not that Mo Fan is making a mistake, it's really because he doesn't know it himself. A few days ago, he also mentioned this question to Lin Ruoxi, the company's development pace is so big, but it is not equipped with manpower in time, as the so-called clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, how does this make everyone do a good job? At that time, Lin Ruoxi said wait, Mo Fan was reluctant to interfere too much in personnel matters, and secondly, he felt that with Lin Ruoxi's ability and vision, he should not be able to consider this, and it was estimated that there was some deep-seated intention, so he didn't say more.
Could it be that Lin Ruoxi deliberately left this situation to test Liang Chengde's ability?
After returning to the office and sitting down, this thought couldn't help but come to Mo Fan's mind.
Judging from the meeting just now, Liang Chengde's style of acting is still quite neat, there are not too many empty words, everything he says is on the point, and he will not diverge too far or even go off topic, which is much stronger than Shen Tai'an. It's just that his claims are not without problems.
On the surface, it is a very reasonable arrangement to let the after-sales department staff with sales experience do sales, or let the installation department staff who are very familiar with the performance and function of the equipment do after-sales. However, assigning the six or seven former sales staff from the after-sales department to the sales department and the online shopping department is not enough to solve the personnel gap in these two departments, but will cause new problems.
In order to pursue profits, retail agents vigorously develop customers on the one hand, and undertake installation business on their own on the one hand, Feng Yongsheng's business mode is a model. Liang Chengde said that this will become a trend, and Mo Fan agrees. But this requires a process, and each retail agent can not set up its own installation team, which can not be done in a day or two.
Before that, the installation work still has to be undertaken by the installation department, and at this time, the personnel from it are likely to be insufficient. And these people are transferred to the after-sales department, and they may not be able to adapt to the work quickly. As the saying goes, it's easier to say than to do, but those who can do it may not say that the nature of the work of the two departments is very different after all.
Therefore, it was originally only a problem of insufficient manpower in two departments, but after this personnel adjustment, it is very likely that there will be a shortage of human resources in all four departments.
In addition, the retail agents are still in the stage of business development, it is impossible to store too much spot in their hands, only when their business develops to a certain extent, they also have an installation team, it is possible to prepare more inventory, and then can it really play the role of a small warehouse. Liang Chengde said this point in advance, which was somewhat deliberately to create pressure on the storage and transportation department.
In short, after this meeting, the problems have increased rather than been solved. Although it can be regarded as a small matter by spreading the pressure of manpower shortage, it also complicates the problem. Maybe Liang Chengde still has some backhand, otherwise it really doesn't make much sense to make such an adjustment.
Although there were doubts and even some disapproval, Mo Fan did not show it. He often advertises himself as a professional model in front of people close to Lu Xiaorong and Liang Wenbo, not just boasting, he pays great attention to key issues.
He knew that Chen Jianjun and Guo Shen were watching his reaction when they held a meeting, and as long as he expressed something, Guo Shen and the others would express their willingness to oppose it more strongly. No matter how you say that Liang Chengde was also appointed by Lin Ruoxi, not giving face to Director Liang is equivalent to not giving face to President Lin. Liang Chengde hasn't been here for a long time, and whether he can do a good job as a sales director has to wait and see, because it is not right to rashly deny a person because of one or two non-principled issues.
……
……
Liang Chengde returned to the sales director's office, sat down and lit a cigarette, and received a fax when he was almost finished. He picked up the fax and looked at it, then picked up the internal phone on the table and called Xu Chengan of the human resources department.
"Hello, I'm Liang Chengde. Our five sales-related departments are now very short of manpower, which not only affects the normal work, but also restricts our follow-up development, do you think we should solve it as soon as possible?"
When Xu Chengan heard this, he complained bitterly: "Mr. Liang, it's not that we don't do our best, it's really that at this time period, it's not easy to find the right person! To tell you the truth, our human resources department is also very short of people now, and I'm also in a hurry, but I can't do it in a hurry!"
Liang Chengde said with a smile: "I know the difficulties of your department. It's approaching the end of the year, and I have to be responsible for a lot of work in the year-end assessment, and there are many and complicated things. Therefore, we have done it ourselves, and you can help us go through the entry procedures as soon as possible. ”
Xu Chengan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Liang, this doesn't seem to be a matter within your responsibility." ”
Liang Chengde smiled and said, "Manager Xu, I'm not robbing you of something." According to the company's system, I have the right to make suggestions on the employment of sales-related departments, right?"
Xu Cheng'an thought, the company has this system, but that is the matter of the old sales department, the so-called "sales-related department employment problems" Yunyun, purely your own play, right?
He pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, "Mr. Liang, have you mentioned this to Mr. Mo?"
Liang Chengde said: "Mr. Mo, do you mean Manager Mo?"
Xu Chengan said: "Uh, yes. He didn't believe that Liang Chengde had been in the company for so long, but he didn't know Mo Fan's status in the company. Asking so knowingly is nothing more than belittling others and elevating oneself, is this a sign that you want to say goodbye to Mo Fan?
Liang Chengde said: "Our sales-related departments have just held a meeting, and the shortage of human resources is a common concern and a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Manager Xu, is there anything wrong?"
Xu Chengan smiled and said, "That's not true, I'll just ask." ”
Liang Chengde said: "It's good if you don't have it. Then I will send you the list of personnel first, and someone will send the relevant information of these people to the mailbox of your department later. ”
Xu Chengan said: "Okay. ”
Soon after the phone call, Xu Chengan received a list of personnel from Liang Chengde. He glanced at it and saw that there were about thirty people, but he didn't pay much attention to it, and took the tea and drank it. In recent days, he has been in a hurry because of work, and the corners of his mouth have blistered. With the addition of these people, the problem of shortage of manpower in the sales-related department can be solved, and he can save a lot.
After a short while, the computer beeps a new email. Xu Chengan opened the mailbox and looked through the resumes of those people against the list given by Liang Chengde. As soon as he looked at a few of them, his face became solemn. By the time he had finished browsing the resumes of more than thirty people, his brows were twisted into pimples.
The people recommended by Liang Chengde are all experienced in work, which is expected. If you get a group of newcomers in the workplace to come in, although there are manpower, they can't work quickly, and they can't solve the problem at all. However, most of these people are from companies owned by the Haitian Group, which is not normal.
Xu Chengan once suggested to Mo Fan that some people from other companies in the group be transferred over for emergency, but Mo Fan vetoed. Could it be that Liang Chengde got Mo Fan's permission this time? I'm afraid it may not be, nine times out of ten it is Liang Chengde's own opinion.
What's even more abnormal is that in addition to ordinary staff, Liang Chengde's recommended people include four supervisors and a manager.
If it is said that some ordinary staff are recruited to come in, Liang Chengde's approach is quite reasonable, but the appointment of management personnel is something that Lin Ruoxi can decide. Now that Lin Ruoxi is not here, it is said that it should be decided by Mo Fan, has Liang Chengde mentioned it to Mo Fan?
