Chapter 258: [Deviation]

After Xu Chengan left, Joanna said to Mo Fan: "I heard that at a regular meeting, Manager Xu had a conflict with you, right?"

Mo Fan smiled: "Do you think there will be a conflict between him and me?"

Xu Chengan is a person with a lot of thoughts, and when facing important or critical issues, he often looks ahead and backward because he thinks too much, so he is a little less courageous, but at the same time, he is more cautious. A person with a personality like him will try to avoid conflicts with others, especially with his boss.

Although Joanna has not been here for a long time, she has a lot of contact with Xu Chengan's work, so she will not fail to see this. Mo Fan's rhetorical question was a joke, but he also wanted to know how different the situation she heard was from the truth. If someone deliberately distorts the facts in front of her, then this person's intentions are naturally very problematic. Although there is not so much intrigue in the company, it does not mean that the employees are simple. In addition, this is also a euphemism to remind Joanna that she must pay attention to the information she obtains. Although she has extremely rich experience in the workplace, when it comes to playing tricks, I am afraid that it is difficult for the people of Fanbang to fully understand the richness of the characters of our Celestial Empire.

Joanna shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "Well, it's me who misworded it. So in other words, he offended you, or rather, he thought he offended you, right?"

Mo Fan nodded and said, "Almost." But that was two months ago. ”

Joanna said: "But in my opinion, the impact of that incident on Manager Xu is still there. ”

Mo Fan smiled and said: "Even if it has an impact, it will not affect the work, and maybe there will be some positive effects." You should be able to see that Manager Xu is very diligent. ”

Joanna shook her head and said, "I don't think that's a good thing. The motivation for a staff work can be money, a position, a family, a sense of achievement, but it should never be a sense of guilt. ”

Mo Fan nodded, agreeing with Joanna's opinion. Guilt is a negative emotion that may manifest positive effects for a period of time, but it is also bound to have negative effects. And overall, it always seems to do more harm than good. From a managerial point of view, it is not advisable to use the guilt of employees to complete tasks, and unconventional methods often lead to accidents and increase uncontrollable factors.

Just like Xu Chengan now, although he is active in his work, he is burdened with psychological pressure, and he often overinterprets the words and deeds of his superiors, which is not conducive to carrying out his work. The simple truth is that he has always had problems with Joanna, and this is not just due to the difference in culture and values between the two. TVmobile/

Clearly, Joanna discovered the problem, but there was no good way to deal with it. Xu Chengan is the subordinate who is most closely connected with her work, and she naturally doesn't want this situation to last too long, so she will say this.

Mo Fan thought for a while and said, "Maybe you should talk to Manager Xu openly and honestly. ”

Joanna said, "Believe me, I've tried my best and I'm not getting real results. ”

Mo Fan smiled and said, "Maybe you didn't use the right way and choose the right location. ”

Joanna said, "Can you be specific?"

Mo Fan said: "For example, when communicating, be more critical and less polite. As another example, you can move the place of conversation from the office to the dining table. ”

Joanna frowned and said, "I understand the dining table." The criticism is a bit difficult to understand. Isn't your tradition subtle and modest? Besides, there is nothing wrong with Manager Xu's work, so why should I criticize him?"

Inviting guests to dinner is probably one of the most common ways to do things in China, and it can even be regarded as a tradition, so there is a so-called wine table culture. In fact, Westerners often talk about things at the dinner table, but it is not necessary to talk about pomp and circumstance, and afternoon tea with a cup of coffee and a few cookies is also very common. Perhaps the difference between the two is that Chinese people express their sincerity through the grade of the banquet, while Westerners pay more attention to the environment and content of the conversation.

Either way, there are similarities between the East and the West, so it's not hard to see why. However, if the leader and his subordinates get closer through critical communication, she may not be able to grasp the essence in a short period of time. This is different from the previous approach that she and Xu Chengan wanted to take on the issue of keeping employees in good working condition, and the root cause is the same.

Mo Fan still gave her a general explanation, and said, "You try to do it, and you will understand it slowly." ”

Joanna blinked and said, "Perhaps, you can set an example for me?"

Mo Fan smiled and said, "Okay." ”

Joanna looked at her watch and said, "I'm going to leave work soon, why don't you just do it today?"

Mo Fan said: "Not today, I have an arrangement." ”

Joanna said, "Is that okay tomorrow?"

Mo Fan said, "OK, tomorrow." ”

Joanna smiled with satisfaction and took her leave.

Mo Fan returned to his desk and sat down, flipped through his work notes, and read what he had done and what he was going to do.

Although he has a good memory, he is used to sorting out his thoughts in this way. The publications that Paul Chan sent him often read over and over again the content he was interested in, and in the process, he could deepen his understanding and enlighten his thinking. The same way of thinking applies to work. And human memory is very wonderful, and remembering it all the time does not mean that it can be remembered at any time. Sometimes things that are very familiar, but you can't remember them when the words come to your mouth, which is called the TOT phenomenon in psychology.

As long as you are human, you will inevitably make mistakes. Lin Ruoxi didn't dare to guarantee that everything was not negligent, and Mo Fan also didn't dare to guarantee it. However, taking work notes only started after he became the general manager. Before that, he would occasionally write down some things casually, but he didn't look at them, because at that time, he was mainly responsible for checking and filling in the gaps for Lin Ruoxi, and he didn't have any responsibility. Now as a general manager, the situation is different.

Speaking of which, for this new position, Mo Fan has a big deviation in cognition.

When it came time to sign a new contract, he felt that it would be no different than before. Because the boss of the company, Lin Ruoxi, is not only a workaholic, but also a very controlling person, always accustomed to taking everything into his own hands. In this regard, she is very similar to Mr. He of Haitian Electronics, and it is no wonder that Liang Wenbo once felt that these two were more like mother and daughter.

If a leader is too smart and competent, it can sometimes have a negative effect. The most typical example is Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms period. This famous minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, who was regarded as the embodiment of wisdom by later generations, has two biggest characteristics in doing things, one is to bow down to everything, and the other is to speak verbosity.

He seems to be responsible, but in fact, he is not at ease with the people under him, and to put it bluntly, he does not trust their abilities. is verbose because he feels that the IQ of the people around him is not on the same order of magnitude as him, so he must say it in detail and clearly, otherwise it will be difficult for others to understand.

When encountering such a leader, not only will the subjective initiative of subordinates be reduced, but also everyone's thinking will become lazy. The leaders have taken all things into account, and they just need to do it, so why bother with their brains? Everyone has also seen the final result, Zhuge Liang is tired to death, not to mention, but also leads to a serious shortage of talents in Shu and Han, so that there is no general in Shu, and Liao Hua is the vanguard. From this point of view, Mr. Zhuge Liang is not a qualified professional manager.

Lin Ruoxi also likes to do things personally, and there are almost no big and small things in the company that she doesn't ask, so Mo Fan has given her advice more than once. Of course, Lin Ruoxi is not verbose, but if you compare her in life, you will find that she has spoken many times more at work.

It is precisely because of understanding these characteristics of Lin Ruoxi that Mo Fan feels that he will be more relaxed as a general manager, and he should still mainly play the role of counselor. However, he soon realized that he was wrong. Lin Ruoxi no longer cares about the company's daily affairs, and all department heads, including Qi Weiming, the chief financial officer, have turned to him for instructions and reports.

Of course, Lin Ruoxi doesn't care about everything, in addition to the company's overall development strategy, the development of agents, the planning of branches, etc., are all led by her. To put it simply, she is responsible for external market development, Mo Fan is responsible for internal operation management, and the two of them are female and male, but they also have a clear division of labor.

Relatively speaking, Mo Fan, the general manager, is still very easy, because he does not have to bear the pressure of revenue performance. But this is only logically speaking, because the division of labor between the two is not fixed. As the general manager of a trading company, how can you not care about the company's revenue? And according to the new work contract, sales-related work is also under his responsibility. Not to mention the matter of being loyal to the king, taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people is the minimum spirit of contract.

With more responsibility on your shoulders comes more pressure on your shoulders. Mo Fan feels the pressure now, this is the biggest difference from before, although the work is not tiring, but it is not easy, because there are more things to worry about.

After combing everything through his mind, Mo Fan turned off the computer and walked out. When Zhong Mintao saw him come out, he stood up and called "Mr. Mo".

Mo Fan said: "It's nothing, let's get off work." ”

Zhong Mintao said: "When Mr. Li left just now, he said that I asked you to have dinner tomorrow night, and let me put this into your work schedule." ”

Mo Fan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and said, "Okay, you can remind me tomorrow." ”

Zhong Mintao nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Mo Fan came out of the general manager's office, and when he passed Joanna's office, he saw that the lights inside were still on, and he knew that she was ready to work overtime again. In the past few days, this Mr. Li has fully revealed her workaholic characteristics, and compared with Lin Ruoxi, she is almost inferior. I don't know if it's because she has just arrived and has not yet formed a circle of friends, so she devotes her spare time to work. However, Joanna's work momentum really made Mo Fan sigh to himself, perhaps this was one of the reasons why Lin Ruoxi hired her. Recommended ReadingTV//
