Chapter 371: Three People Provoke Three Big Blocks
In the box, facing his first batch of employees, Zhao Guoyang told him about his plan for the company.
"Regarding the position setting of the foreign trade company, I think everyone should have some understanding before, and today is just a good time, so I will try to tell you in detail. ”
As soon as Zhao Guoyang spoke, he attracted the attention of Zhang Yufang and the three of them.
Indeed, as MBAs from the University of Pennsylvania, Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman are certainly no strangers to foreign trade companies, and they have been more or less exposed to this knowledge in school.
As for Zhang Yufang, although she is not specialized in economics, she also understands this aspect of knowledge when she takes the customs declaration certificate.
Seeing the three of them listening carefully, Zhao Guoyang sat up straight and said slowly: "Generally speaking, the internal affairs of international trading companies are roughly divided into three parts, namely technology, marketing, and management. ”
"In addition to the leadership positions such as general manager and deputy general manager, each of these three blocks has a director who is responsible for their respective operations. ”
"Below the director, there are several department managers, who are responsible for the day-to-day affairs of several major departments. ”
"For example, under the technical director, there is usually a technical quality control manager, who is in charge of the technical development department and the product quality department. Among them, the two departments each have their own department leaders and directors to specifically manage the affairs of their respective departments. ”
"Specific to the technology development department, there are production process design department, industrial design department, technology development department and other departments, each department is equipped with a chief and deputy section chief, and under the product quality department, there is a quality management department, market feedback department, the same is the configuration of the chief and deputy section chiefs......
Zhao Guoyang took a breath a little, raised his right hand slightly, and signaled: "Teacher Zhang, Zecheng, Yiman, if you have any questions, you can ask them at any time, don't just say it to me." ”
After listening to Zhao Guoyang's words, the three of them glanced at each other, and Wang Zecheng first asked: "Mr. Zhao, you just explained this, I almost understand the general structure of the company." It's just that I still don't know how to divide the three parts of technology, marketing, and management. ”
Zhao Guoyang nodded approvingly and explained, "Well, I understand what Zecheng wants to ask. You don't know exactly what these three pieces do, do you?"
Wang Zecheng nodded again and again: "Yes, my understanding of foreign trade companies is foreign trade." But listening to the meaning of Mr. Zhao's words, will our company itself be involved in manufacturing?"
Zhao Guoyang chuckled and said, "Zecheng, you asked this question well. In general, small trading companies are indeed not responsible for the production of goods, and are more likely to buy and sell. ”
"But at the beginning of the establishment of Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company, I reported the business scope of energy, manufacturing and other business in the industrial and commercial tax department, so in the future, our company will definitely produce its own products to open up a larger market......"
Hearing this, Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman suddenly realized.
As for Zhang Yufang on the side, it is even more clear, she knows Zhao Guoyang's professional-level level in automobile manufacturing, speaking of which, the registered capital of this foreign trade company comes from his technology patent transfer fee.
In the future, Xingtai International Foreign Trade Co., Ltd. will develop, design and manufacture its own products, which will naturally be no problem.
Seeing that the three of them understood a rough idea, Zhao Guoyang continued to explain the specific work content of these three parts.
The main work of the technical quality control department is to carry out new product research and development according to the company's plan requirements for new product development, and is responsible for product improvement and technical improvement. In addition, it is also the responsibility of the department to record and organize various experimental data and provide technical reports. ”
"Of course, for the time being, our company does not have the task of developing new products. For the time being, only the product quality department of the technical department will remain operational, and its job content is to analyze the product quality status. Monitor the quality of raw materials provided by suppliers as needed!"
After Zhao Guoyang finished talking about the main tasks of the technical quality control department, his eyes turned to Zhang Yufang and said: "Mr. Zhang, according to the business scope of our company, our technical quality control department needs very professional talents in machinery and energy. ”
"Such a talent has not been found for the time being, so the technical quality control department, you will supervise it on your behalf, how about it, no problem, right?"
Zhang Yufang was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in response.
Zhao Guoyang said "um", and continued to introduce to the three of them: "Among the three major parts, everyone already understands the technology, so I will talk about marketing." ”
Hearing this, Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, you look at me, I look at you, they are all in good spirits.
Indeed, according to the profession of the two of them, they must be responsible for their marketing.
Zhao Guoyang drank water, slowed down his speech and said: "As a foreign trade company, marketing is naturally very important. ”
"According to international practice, within our company, under the marketing director, I am also ready to set up two managers, namely the marketing operation manager and the supply management manager. ”
Among them, the market operation manager has several positions, such as brand manager, customer relationship manager, customer service manager, service manager, etc., who are responsible for managing their own stalls, while the supply management manager has supply planning manager and supply business manager. ”
After a pause, Zhao Guoyang's gaze turned around on Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman and said: "For the time being, Zecheng, you will pick up the market operation first, and Yiman will be responsible for supply management." ”
"Of course, this does not mean that the two of you will necessarily be the market operation manager and supply management manager after the company grows bigger in the future, everything depends on your performance at work. ”
As soon as Zhao Guoyang said this, it immediately aroused the competitive spirit of Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman.
The two nodded at the same time: "Mr. Zhao, please rest assured, we will go all out and will not let you down!"
What Zhao Guoyang wanted was the effect, and he nodded with satisfaction at the moment: "Well, in addition to this mess in the hands of the two of you, the marketing director also needs to be responsible for the regional business management of the seven continents." ”
"In this regard, for the time being, I will personally handle it, and when the time is ripe in the future, I will appoint a full-time marketing director to be responsible for ......."
After Zhao Guoyang said this, the meaning was obvious.
There is no doubt that the three directors of the company's three major blocks must be executives.
As for Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, who are temporarily in charge of market operation and supply management, according to their current positions, they should be the top of the middle-level cadres.
Basically, as long as the two of them don't make any mistakes in their future work, there is no big problem in sitting in this position.
Even the two of them still have a certain opportunity to impact the executive position of marketing director.
This news is really wonderful for Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, who have been looking forward to making a career.
When Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman were in high spirits, Zhang Yufang, who was sitting next to them, was somewhat lost.
The task assigned to her by Zhao Guoyang just now is to manage the technical quality control department.
Although in terms of administrative level, she is no different from Wang and Xie.
But in the future, once the company hires a professional technical backbone, he will definitely step down from this position.
When that happens, where do you go from here?
Just when Zhang Yufang's mind was not belonging, Zhao Guoyang opened his voice again: "Three major pieces, I have already told you about two pieces." As for this last piece, it is the core part of the company, that is, the management part......"
Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang directly set his eyes on Zhang Yufang and said: "Teacher Zhang, I think you belong to this position of management director, how about it, do you have the confidence to provoke this beam?"
Hearing this, Zhang Yufang's eyes were confused, and Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman next to her had already reacted, and at the same time congratulated her.
Zhang Yufang was stunned for a long time before she understood. She blushed excitedly and nodded, "National ...... Mr. Zhao, I, I will do my best to do this job well!"
Zhao Guoyang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, I have confidence in you! Speaking of which, for every company, management is the most important." In Western countries, there are many companies where the managing director is a member of the board of directors......"
Zhang Yufang nodded heavily, and asked loudly: "Mr. Zhao, what departments do you need to set up or department managers to manage this area?"
Zhao Guoyang waved his hand and said, "Hey, if you don't say this Teacher Zhang, I will definitely mention you." ”
"Under the management director, the four departments directly in charge are the investment department, the finance department, the human resources department, and the office. Each of these departments has a supervisor who is responsible for the day-to-day work of their respective department. ”
"In addition, there is an investment management section under the investment department, a management department, a cashier department, a cost department, a tax department, and a customs declaration department that you are familiar with; and a human resources department with a personnel department and a performance department; the office is more miscellaneous, including front desk security, administrative assistants, legal affairs and many other miscellaneous items, all of which are classified among them. ”
After Zhao Guoyang's explanation, Zhang Yufang was basically relieved.
It can be seen that the power of the managing director is indeed very large, and he basically controls all the projects that the company is running now.
Among them, of course, there is Zhao Guoyang and his personal relationship in it, but to a certain extent, it is also Zhao Guoyang's recognition and hope for himself.
Thinking about this, Zhang Yufang secretly made up her mind in her heart, she must come out with an appearance, and she can't let people laugh at Guoyang's cronyism, right?
After Zhao Guoyang told this story, basically the general situation of the company has been explained to Zhang Yufang and them.
He has a good understanding of Zhang Yufang's personality and level.
Just from the fact that she was able to get the customs declaration certificate so quickly, it can be seen that this teacher Zhang's learning perseverance and hard work spirit are definitely outstanding.
Therefore, Zhao Guoyang was not stingy and directly gave Zhang Yufang a position of managing director.
As for Wang Zecheng and Xie Yiman, the two of them must have the ability, but what they can do depends on one step at a time.
Zhao Guoyang has already thought about it in his heart, and after inspecting them for a period of time, if there is no major problem, he will officially turn the two of them into regular positions as market operation managers and supply management managers.
As for whether the two of them can become marketing directors in the end, we have to take a look at it more, as the so-called road knows the horsepower and sees the hearts of the people for a long time.
