Cao Shuijiang asked: "Mayor Liu, how do you think about the selection of managers in Xicheng Industrial Park?" ”

Liu Yan said: "Then I'll talk about the requirements for this candidate first." Just now, Minister Cao talked about driving, and in my opinion, driving and driving are two completely different concepts. Driving is control, specifically to Xicheng Industrial Park, is how to effectively manage the staff selected in the future, so that they can work obediently and in accordance with the leader's ideas. Control is a relatively strong behavior, if you want your subordinates to obey your command in a proper manner, the first one is that your own talent should be enough to make your subordinates admire, so control, not only rely on the wrist, but also on the talent. Speaking of control, I think it should be the fit of the concept of morality, is the worship of the soul, is the surrender in the silent place, to do this, first of all, you yourself must be a noble person, a delicate and clear person, a broad-minded person, with one word to summarize, that is, there is 'virtue'. As the saying goes, driving skills rely on talent, and driving skills rely on morality. Speaking of which, it comes back to an eternal theme, that is, having both ability and political integrity. ”

Cao Shuijiang felt that Liu Yan's statement was too general, so he asked again: "In your heart, is there a specific candidate?" ”

Liu Yan said: "No, I don't want to and will not set any prerequisites in this selection process, everything must be carried out in accordance with the established rules, only in this way can real talents stand out." ”

Cao Shuijiang smiled bitterly, then shook his head again. said: "Mayor Liu, are you doing this a little too much?" I can understand what you mean by not wanting to mix any personal inclination in the selection process. At this point, Secretary Li and I are not inconsistent with your ideas. But the key question is that the person who is the leader of Xicheng Industrial Park involves your control of the whole situation, and there is no absolutely reliable person, who may lose control of one or the other in the future, or even completely out of control, what should you do when the time comes? According to your usual style, you must do it yourself. I remind you that if you have to do everything yourself, then your control of the whole is a failure, in other words, a leader who takes the lead in everything is definitely not a qualified leader, let alone a competent leader. ”

Liu Yan smiled, not knowing how to deal with it. From the bottom of his heart, Liu Yan's view of Cao Shuijiang is repulsive. According to Liu Yan's own understanding, Cao Shuijiang's so-called reliable person is to choose a person of his own. From a certain point of view, this practice is basically equivalent to forming a faction, forming one's own small sect and small group, and establishing one's own circle of influence. If this is the case, then the current personnel reform will be completely sour.

Li Yaya has been observing Liu Yan's every move, and he can sense Liu Yan's doubts and even resistance to Cao Shuijiang's remarks. From Li Yaya's point of view, some of Cao Shuijiang's views are close to his. He felt that Liu Yan's method of dealing with problems was a bit too simplistic, and it could even be said that it tended to be extreme. If it is not guided and corrected in a timely manner, the consequences are very terrible.

Li Yaya couldn't help but speak.

"In the conversation between Liu Yan and Minister Cao just now, there is a word involved - control. In my opinion, although there are some differences in the expressions of the two of you, the essence is completely the same. Liu Yan emphasizes self-discipline and blame for himself. According to what you said, driving skills rely on talent, control skills rely on morality, if you want to fundamentally complete the control of people, first of all, your own body must be correct, that is, we often talk about leading by example. If you have a preset candidate in your heart in the next job selection, or if you have a certain inclination towards a certain person, it is equivalent to stepping on the red line first, and this approach is difficult to convince the public. As for Minister Cao, what he emphasized was the assessment of the candidate for the top leader of Xicheng Industrial Park. Both of you have a common understanding, that is, the person who is selected for this position must have both ability and political integrity. The so-called talent refers to a person's business ability, leadership ability, ability to control the overall situation, and so on. These abilities can be discovered through assessment, and to be more specific, it is necessary to pass the written test and interview. What about virtue? In my opinion, a person's virtue should refer to his mentality, mental skills, state of mind, and so on, which are things that belong to the connotation. In this regard, I am afraid that it is not possible to find out through a written test and interview. If you want to truly understand a person's moral sentiments, you must at least be familiar with this person, or even be relatively intimate, even so, you may not be able to really understand a person. It is difficult to judge the quality of a person with our eyes. The human face and the heart of the beast, the yang and the yin, and the hidden knife in the smile, these words are the most sinister side of human nature. And the special nature of this position determines that we cannot be negligent in the selection of this candidate, especially his moral character. Once a person with a very bad moral character is put in a leadership position, it will be very harmful. What to do? ”

Speaking of this, Li Yaya spread his hands at Liu Yan, meaning that this question is still up to you to answer.

Listening to Li Yaya's words, Liu Yan's heart was complicated and even struggling, but one thing he had to admit was that he was indeed too immature in terms of his ideas about specific work.

Liu Yan touched his nose and said: "Maybe my thoughts are a little too simple, I just think that the Central Organization Department has put such an important burden on our shoulders, so in terms of specific behavior, there can be no selfish distractions. ”

Li Yaya said: "Many times, our choices are passive and helpless, because there are many rules and regulations that restrict us and constrain us. This kind of restraint will to a large extent shackle our behavior and imprison our thinking. Many of the originally ideal goals have become disorderly and confused. Let's take the selection of the top leader of Xicheng Industrial Park as an example, objectively, we must have a preset candidate, but subjectively, we can't have a very clear preset candidate. Because there is no accurate criterion for judging whether our so-called moral character is good or bad. Therefore, there is no way for us to exclude some people by the standard of moral character. Whether it is a good person or a bad person, the opportunity to participate in the competition is equal, and the scale of judgment is also the same, that is, the final assessment results. This assessment result only reflects a person's talent, but in terms of moral character, there is no slightest hint of it. I've been wondering, how can I keep those guys with terrible character out of the competitive sequence? ”

Cao Shuijiang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid there is no way to do this." To exclude some people is to openly admit that there are preconceived candidates. In doing so, people will mistakenly think that it is cronyism, which is the biggest taboo in the organization's selection process. If we don't do it well, we will be dragged into right and wrong. ”

Li Yaya let out a long sigh and said, "Alas! In the past, it was also advocated to promote the virtuous and not avoid relatives! Why can't we be realistic about our work style? ”

Cao Shuijiang said: "On some rather sensitive issues, seeking truth from facts is just one of our good wishes. When we face reality, we are often powerless and at a loss. Back to this selection work, we must be fully prepared, this preset candidate, in addition to meeting our requirements in terms of character, must also be absolutely excellent in personal ability, in the next assessment, can beat all competitors. Only in this way can we not be passive in our work. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Shuijiang glanced at Liu Yan and asked, "Mayor Liu, in your heart, is there such a suitable candidate?" ”

Liu Yan shook his head, in this regard, his mind has always been one-way, in the words of the common people, it is a tendon. He has always believed that the work arrangement can be carried out as long as it is carried out in accordance with the established assessment method, and when the time comes, whoever meets the assessment standards of which position will be engaged in the work of which position.

After Li Yaya and Cao Shuijiang's repeated allocations, Liu Yan realized that the more important leadership positions in Xicheng Industrial Park, especially the number one, really need to have a trustworthy candidate in all aspects.

Now, Liu Yan has just turned around, and the information stored in his brain does not have these aspects at all, so it is really a bit difficult for him to find a suitable candidate.

In addition, Liu Yan has not been back to work in Jundu for a long time, and he has very little contact with the people below, and his cognition of the people in the circle is far from reaching the level of heart-to-heart, which adds a lot of difficulty to his choice.

Liu Yan looked at Li Yaya and said, "Secretary Li, it's better for you to recommend a candidate, in Jundu, whether it is the party committee or the government, you should be the most familiar, there will always be someone you think is the most suitable, right?" ”

Li Yaya said: "To tell you the truth, Minister Cao and I have been talking about this issue these days when you are in the capital. Until now, there has not been an ideal candidate. Sometimes I think, isn't it just a full-fledged position? Why so much hesitation? Later, I finally figured out that the personnel reform in Xicheng Industrial Park was led by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, and the excessive caution made me have a phobia of choice. ”
