Chapter 541: Professional Managers

Xie Zili didn't expect this day to come so quickly, he knew that Li Ruoyu might engage in other industries, but Li Ruoyu was able to hand over the concrete company to him to manage, which showed that he trusted himself very much. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Li Ruoyu said with a smile: "In the future, our company will also need a large number of professional managers. The chief engineer of our ready-mixed commercial concrete batching plant not only needs to establish clear goals and have a strong will, but also needs to have the courage to give up and challenge, and to learn and grow hard to achieve the growth leap from chief engineer or technical vice president to professional manager. Of course, now the domestic concrete industry is just starting, so you still have a lot of room for development. ”

Xie Zili said excitedly: "It's all thanks to Mr. Li who pulled me out of a unit like the Academy of Construction Sciences, otherwise I wouldn't dare to think about that, at most I would just be an engineer." ”

Li Ruoyu said with a smile: "Senior Brother Xie, what are you talking about? We are alumni and fellow countrymen, and besides, you are indeed a rare talent, I want to invite you to come! Now, the general manager of our national concrete batching plant is basically not from a technical background, and he is either a major shareholder or a shareholder or a director. But I believe that one day, there will be a lot of professional managers who have grown up from the positions of chief engineer of the mixing plant, laboratory director, and production manager who are engaged in production technology. In the future, with the possible development of private commercial concrete enterprises and capital, as well as the expansion of commercial concrete enterprises with cement and construction backgrounds, more and more high-level positions will be derived from the commercial concrete industry in the future, providing new career development opportunities for our mixing plant department managers. And Mr. Xie will likely become the first such professional manager. ”

Xie Zili nodded and said, "I know that there is nothing wrong with following Mr. Li 1"

Li Ruoyu said with a smile: "However, you must know that the work of a professional manager is very different from that of the chief engineer or the deputy general manager, and he needs more extensive knowledge and experience, for example, a professional manager must be responsible for the business performance of the mixing plant. The mission is to help investors or senior management achieve a return on investment, and to help the core team and employees achieve career development and the mission of raising a family. To achieve these missions, professional managers must lead the entire staff of the plant to create excellent business performance. ”

Xie Zili nodded and said: "Yes! Professional managers are faced with the trust of so many interest groups, and the responsibilities and pressures they need to bear are far greater than those of the chief engineer. ”

Li Ruoyu said with a smile: "That's right, so professional managers want to create excellent business performance, not only rely on individuals, but to be able to select and employ people, to give full play to the role of the management team, that is, the middle-level cadre management team of our mixing plant, mobilize the enthusiasm of all employees, so that everyone can get a higher reasonable income, so that everyone is full of enthusiasm." ”

Xie Zili sighed: "It seems that I still have a lot to learn!"

Li Ruoyu nodded and said: "I believe you can do it! The process of formulating organizational strategy often requires the full participation of the management team to finalize, so whether the management team members can play a good role in the strategy formulation process is an important challenge for professional managers." Once the organizational strategy is determined, the core of the professional manager, as the top manager of the mixing plant, is to implement the strategy and achieve business performance by leading the team. In this process, the general manager needs to use strategy, core values and corporate culture to unify the thinking of the core team members; the general manager needs to truly grasp the characteristics of the core team members and help them solve the core concerns such as power, position, remuneration and being trusted, valued and recognized; the general manager needs to stimulate the potential of the core team members, optimize everyone's way of thinking and mental model, help sort out ideas, impart management experience, The general manager needs to optimize the allocation of internal resources, create conditions for team members to exert value, and continuously optimize the organization according to strategic and management needs to achieve efficient collaboration of the organization. ”

Li Ruoyu continued: "In terms of internal management, the field of professional manager management covers the overall situation of production, supply and marketing, human resources and property, etc., and it is necessary to deal with the relationship with the board of directors or the superior organization, to handle the relationship between the headquarters and the branches, to achieve effective coordination of the organization, to lead a good team, to train good people, but also to deal with the internal politics of the organization, to ensure the achievement of performance, a thousand things, a thousand opportunities. As the top manager of the mixing plant, the professional manager should not only do a good job in internal management, but also create a good external environment for the development of the organization, handle the relationship with the government, community, customers, suppliers and other important stakeholders, and integrate resources for the development of the mixing plant. Obviously, the work characteristics of professional managers who pay attention to the overall situation, take into account both internal and external, and multi-task at the same time must be very unfamiliar to the chief engineer or department manager who is accustomed to a relatively single task. In the future, I will organize our reserve professional managers to go to institutions of higher learning such as Fuming University or Qinghua University to participate in business administration training and improve everyone's management ability!"

Xie Zili said excitedly: "Ah, this is so attractive!"

Li Ruoyu said with a smile: "That's right, professional managers should get an MBA degree in the future, which fully shows the professionalism and level of our management in the concrete industry! Professional managers, this is a very popular saying in the West, for our chief engineer or department manager, it is not only a challenge to its ability to bear pressure and responsibility, but also a challenge to its existing management knowledge, management ability and way of thinking. From the perspective of management knowledge, it is necessary to supplement the knowledge of financial and budget management, human resource management, marketing management, production and service management, and information management, which are all necessary management knowledge for excellent professional managers. ”

"From the perspective of management ability, the ability to communicate with the board of directors or higher management, as well as strategic management ability, budget management ability, target plan management and meeting management ability, core team building and management ability, etc., are all necessary management skills for excellent professional managers. From the point of view of the way of thinking, the result thinking, the systematic thinking characterized by mastering the management law, the customer value thinking characterized by gratitude and service, and the team thinking characterized by adult self-achievement are all necessary management thinking for professional managers; in particular, professional managers who are engaged in technology should also give up the original simple absolute binary thinking of distinguishing between right and wrong and black and white, because management is essentially both science and art, and art is never black and white. ”

After listening to Li Ruoyu's explanation, Xie Zili was both excited and full of apprehension, because he was worried about whether he could be competent for the overall management of the mixing plant, and the professional manager was not so easy to be! )
