Weekends with E

Zhang Lan, who made an appointment with IC, spent a day of leisurely strolling under the food block and watching movies, and went home and teased Sun Han for a while, but this comfortable and comfortable good time is always so short.

Since returning to China in March 2018, I have been in this company for more than 2 years, and I have slowly become accustomed to the various entanglements of the first leader and the sometimes abrupt and sometimes slow rhythm of the second-in-command management, so that every Monday's regular meeting, Zhang Lan has a little question mark about the unknown situation, and even depressed.

In December 2020, in the education and training company in Chengdu.

It's Monday's regular meeting again. Each team leader should first reflect on the work of the previous week, explain the content and completion of the work one by one, and show the plan and estimate of the tasks for the new week.

"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Qian, on the side of our art and sports team, the focus of the last two weeks is to follow up on the school district that has newly opened art and sports courses, and now the teachers are in place, and the students in the first phase belong to the trial lecture, which is the nature of recruitment, and we are assisting the school district to do the final ......work in the preparatory stage."

"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Qian, it is also the end of the year recently, and the recent focus of our junior and senior high school team is mainly in curriculum research and development, because many school districts have joined the practice of programming classes, and the related teaching aids update work is the ...... we are docking and assisting in the near future."

Finally it was Zhang Lan's turn. "Mr. Zhao, Mr. Qian, our side is going in both directions, and I will report separately. First of all, the business of TO B is still in the continuous follow-up and maintenance with old customers, and in terms of new customers, there are 2 new expansions, which have been connected and have carried out preliminary communication, but the current feedback is concerned about the epidemic and dare not rush forward. ”

"Then there is the part of the business of preschool education, because the focus was on offline before, so at this stage we are still in the normalized polishing curriculum. In addition, I submitted a simple framework for the product system to you a while ago, but I wonder if you think it can be promoted. ”

Mr. Zhao faced Zhang Lan, "The matter of that framework, let's do this for the time being, it has been done well, but whether it can be promoted, I still have to communicate with the leaders in charge of teaching and research of the group." Now there is a new situation, Jessica After they left, several of our online platforms were temporarily shelved, and I have heard some feedback from the school district in the past few days, so I also discussed it with Mr. Qian, at least our official account can't be interrupted, you can get this part first, just get it with it. ”

"Mr. Zhao, let's go first, no problem, but there are many ways to express the official account, I want to ask, is it okay to use the original form for the time being? Or are they all responsible for things like video accounts? Because if there is video content, we really don't have professional people on our side, so it may be more laborious. ”

"Don't use the video account first, and put it aside for the time being, just need the WeChat public account, and the graphic content can be done. You can check the previous frequency, and it will be the same as the original. ”

After the weekly meeting of the management, it is natural that it is time for the internal meeting of the team to announce the new information. I heard that the workload had suddenly increased again, and before Zhang Lan could announce the specific distribution method, the following had already begun to whisper.

"Hey, why are there irrelevant things for us?" "But isn't it, there's always something to do, hey." "Do you know what the frequency was before? If it's once a week, it doesn't matter. "How can it be once a week, it turns out that there is a team doing online work, why do you have to do it two or three times a week." I don't remember exactly. ”

"Okay, let's stop talking." Zhang Lan cleared her throat, "Our original frequency is three times a week, which are two, four, and six, and Saturday can be written and set in advance, and it will be sent automatically at that time." Let's just take over, let's try it internally, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Li, Xiao Tao, each of you has one, how to deal with the specific arrangement, you can discuss it yourself, and arrange the two, four, and six. ”

"Mr. Zhang, but this official account, I've seen some of it is quite complicated, there are videos, there are GIFs, this is quite time-consuming." "Yes, Mr. Zhang, we really haven't done it to be honest, we don't have to make it so complicated, right?" Several people also raised questions one after another.

"It's not that complicated, you check the previous content first, it's basically just a cat and a tiger, limited to pictures and texts, of course, if you want to try more tricks yourself, it's no problem. Let's just do it for now, if you have any questions, can you come to my office at any time? Tomorrow is the first article.,Show me the link before you send it.。 ”

"By the way, this official account is not internal to our team, but for the overall business side of the company, so the theme corresponding to the content, we must not only limit it to the part of kindergarten education, but also junior high and high school, as well as art and sports, all of which must be considered. When you were writing the first draft, you also bumped into your colleagues from the other two teams. Zhang Lan added this sentence again.

Looking at the end of the meeting, several people who were named were a little drooping their heads, plus writing an official account, but also facing cross-departmental communication and cooperation.

Sure enough, in the afternoon of the same day, someone came into Zhang Lan's office one after another.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm in charge of sending the public account tomorrow, the theme corresponds to the art and sports education draft, after the meeting in the morning, I will find the art and sports group, saying that it will send me some materials for reference, but now I haven't sent it, I'm embarrassed to urge again, Mr. Zhang, do you think you want to help find someone?"

"I'll ask about this later, and ask them to send it to you as soon as possible. Oh yes, next time, in a similar situation, don't delay, for example, you can come to me right away at noon. ”

In addition to cross-departmental coordination, there are also discussions related to copywriting style; Either they came to complain, saying that they were suddenly assigned a job that they had not done and were not necessarily good at, and they felt furious and unconfident. Communicating one by one, either a professional discussion or a psychological dredging, Zhang Lan spent most of the afternoon in the dialogue between you and me.

At night, Chengdu rented a house.

This time, it was finally Zhang Lan's turn to complain. "Hey, you said it's not easy to bring a team."

"What's the matter, Sister Lan Lan, is there something new in you? Or is there anyone on your team who doesn't obey? ”

"It's not that I don't obey, it's that today our Mr. Zhao sent a task to write an official account to my side, and a few children were a little worried about not doing well, and they were also a little complaining. They didn't say anything, but I could feel that they felt that they were a little bit of an extra thing for me to do as a team, which was to do chores, but in fact, it wasn't a chore. ”

Sun Han straightened his face, "I'm in the team now, there are old employees, and there are also people brought over by the travel agency, and the situation is not easy. ”

"So how can you do it together? Hey, I'm not a cold-faced person. ”

"Don't say it, Sister Lan Lan, you're a little too talkative. My cold face is my advantage haha. I think the first thing is that your professionalism is enough, and there is also the enthusiasm and tension of the work state, etc., these are all appearances and need to be shown, but in fact, you have no problem. ”

Sun Han continued, "Also, when colleagues have difficulties, if you want to help them, take myself as an example, I will not tell the answer immediately, I will provide a direction for thinking, and then let them collect, sort out, and integrate the results by themselves." If it still doesn't work, then I'll click further, for example, even the scope of the collection, but always let them have something to do, this process is what they should do. ”

"At the same time, I will set a time node in advance, and when the time comes, I must give a result, even if the result is not ideal, it doesn't matter, but they must be made into a habit, and within the time limit, there needs to be a result-oriented thing that can come out. If you can't get out, you have to take some measures, and you must not let them feel that there is a person in charge to cover them anyway, and it doesn't matter if they don't work hard, it will be miserable, and they will never be independent. ”

Zhang Lan nodded frequently, "I definitely agree with what you said, it should be like this, but sometimes, I'm also a little embarrassed to put further pressure on them." It may also be that I have been working alone before, and I am used to planning and doing my own thing. I only took over this preschool teaching team in April, and now I have finally become familiar with it for more than half a year, but sometimes it is too strict or too strong, and I am not very easy to manage. ”

"Sister Lan Lan, in fact, to be honest, in our daily life, there are no major events at all, they are all small and unspoken work details, I don't think we can talk about pressure or anything like that. Besides, the pressure is all your own understanding, your general manager assigns you a job, you can think of it as an ordinary task assignment, you can also imagine it as a source of pressure, this is also divided into people, I don't think you need to feel that they are all so vulnerable. ”

"Well, you're right, fortunately, none of these people in my team are passive and slacking off, and there are no particularly prickly or difficult ones, so I feel embarrassed when I have something, after all, we usually have a good relationship."

"Oh, work is work, even if you are called cold-blooded by others behind your back, what about it. I always think that as long as I have strong professional ability and management is in place, other people occasionally complain or even gossip, which is not a problem. We didn't work for those other people, and we didn't say it in front of us. Even if we say it to our faces, it's okay, we still have to do what we have to do, and in the same way, we still have to do what we have to do after they finish speaking. ”

Zhang Lan laughed, "Your mentality is simply amazing, extremely powerful." Sometimes I feel that I am not as good as you, who have been back to China for more than 2 years, and have adapted to it for more than 1 year. ”

"Hey, I can't help it, I don't convert, I don't adapt, I can't do it."

Sun Han put on a smiling face again, "Anyway, I've been so tired lately, why don't you find a weekend to walk around and change your mood." You can put down E for a moment

IC, can you give me some time? ”

Zhang Lan patted Sun Han with disgust, "You don't come, how can we see you every week, where do you want to go, sister will accompany you." ”
