As a manager, it is not that they always ask for nothing from others, on the contrary, they are the kind that know how to ask for people and are good at asking for people. That is, the borrower has a borrowing method.

Hefner, president of Playboy magazine, has all the qualities of a successful entrepreneur – shrewd, decisive, and empowering. And in terms of learning from others, she is absolutely superior.

As the daughter of old Hefner, she is generally considered to have a good life and "inherited" her father's business. In fact, in 1982 she inherited a troubled company that lost $50 million a year, the lucrative casino business was a thing of the past, and Playboy magazine itself seemed out of step with the times.

With her tireless work and shrewd management, she was able to turn the company around and regain its prestige. The real situation should be: she was not lucky to inherit Playboy magazine, but Playboy was lucky enough to find the master.

When he first took over Playboy magazine, Hefner was not as eager to show his skills as most people, but deliberately networked a group of consultants. As she says, "There are never too many smart people." ”

She immediately created the position of "General Manager" and reused a very capable treasurer.

Hefner has heard of Warren Buffett's astonishing performance as chairman of Bakershire Hasevi Enterprises. Warren Buffett is a recognized investment wizard who has a knack for finding valuable concessions and then developing them for the long term.

So she wrote to Warren Buffett expressing her interest in developing a company's concession for the long term, and that she was willing to treat him to lunch when he traveled to Chicago, New York, or Los Angeles.

Within a week, Buffett wrote back that he rarely visited the big cities, but that if Hefner visited Omaha, he would be happy to meet him. Otherwise, he and his family would go on vacation to the California waterfront north of San Diego during the New Year, and welcome her by the way. So Hefner deliberately rushed to California, talked with him for an afternoon, and learned a lot. Later, he went to Omaha twice. The result of the conversation was that Buffett agreed to do the role of treasurer she had arranged. This lowering one's posture and asking for others is what many managers are good at.

A letter, a trip, in exchange for a valuable advisor. If you recruit talents, you can use their wisdom and talents to serve yourself, that is, "borrow" talents to develop yourself.
