Before discussing the formal topic, we need to clarify two issues. The first question is-what is "leadership", that is, how to understand the concept of "leadership" The second question is-why should we be a "leader"? How to understand the concept of "leadership" Everyone knows it, but it's a little difficult to sum it up. Management believes that leadership is a kind of behavior or behavior process in which leaders use power and personal charm to influence their subordinates to achieve organizational goals. Now, how to be a good leader refers to a leader. A person can have many opportunities to play the role of "leader" in his life. Primary school students are "leaders" when they are squad leaders, directors and secretaries are leaders when they go to work, and directors and managers are "leaders". Some of them can't work in their units, but they are "leaders" when they go home. In short, the concept of "leadership" covers a wide range. Briefly, it can be said that "leader" is the main leader and decision maker of a group, organization and unit. The responsibility of "leadership" can also be summarized. According to Chairman Mao's old man's house, it means "giving advice and employing cadres", in other words, "making decisions and employing people", which is concise. Imagine that a leader is by no means an all-rounder or an expert in a certain field, but this will never affect him to become a good leader. This is a problem that has been proved by history and reality. Especially in today's social clubs, with the rapid development of science and technology, a person's knowledge and the depth of knowledge in a certain field will be greatly limited, and it will become more and more prominent, which puts forward higher and higher requirements for leaders' decision-making and employment quality. Of course, this does not mean that as a leader, you don't need knowledge and depth. It just shows that leaders, as leading cadres, should pay more attention to their own leadership qualities, that is, organizational leadership and art. A person with wide knowledge or deep knowledge may not be a good leader, but a person with high leadership qualities can make good use of these people with wide knowledge and deep knowledge. The second question. Why be a "leader"? Napoleon said: A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. As an ambitious person, a self-motivated person, if an ordinary person, he will do his work well and be responsible for himself. As a "leader", you will fully realize your ambitions, show your talents, grasp the overall situation and be responsible for all subordinates. To be a "leader", we should strive to do better than others, strive to create better performance, give full play to our social value and serve the broad masses of the people more fully. We know what "leadership" is, and we have also established the confidence to be a "leader". So, how can we become a good leader? First, we must firmly establish the people-oriented concept and make good use of people. We should firmly establish the people-oriented concept and make good use of people. (1) Do a good job in team building. Chairman Mao once said: "After the political line is determined, the cadres will decide, because Chairman Mao said so." The "cadres" here are not the concept of "cadres" in the general sense, but cadres who have certain leadership positions and are close to the decision-making level (even at the decision-making level), that is to say, they should be members of the team to a great extent. It can be said that team members are not only a member of the decision-making level, but also the direct undertaker responsible for implementing the decision-making intention, and their importance is self-evident. Pay attention to "using good people" as the key to team building. In terms of making good use of team members, we should: (1) develop strengths and avoid weaknesses, and divide the work reasonably. "The ruler has his strengths, and we should use his strengths, avoid his weaknesses, and rationally divide the work. Have strengths, push your luck and be short. Everyone has his own strengths and weaknesses, that is, strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, it is necessary to maximize its advantages and minimize its weaknesses, that is, to foster strengths and avoid weaknesses. Reflected in the division of labor, we should try our best to make reasonable scheduling according to the individual's mastery and familiarity with the work in charge, so as to make overall consideration and overall consideration. Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang once said: "Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang once said: Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang once said that I am not as good as an ovary in strategic planning. Filling the country, strategizing and winning a thousand miles, I am not as good as the ovary; Fill in the country, care for hundreds of surnames, give reimbursement, and never stop supplying food. I am not as good as Xiao He; Even millions of people, the war will win, and the reimbursement will be endless. I am not as good as Xiao He; Even if it's a million people, I'm not as good as Han Xin. If you attack, you must accept it. I am not as good as Han Xin. "This shows that as a leader, the most important ability and talent is to know how to be a good person and choose talents. (2) Strengthen management, coordinate the relationship between team members, give full play to strengthen management, coordinate the relationship between team members, and achieve overall benefits. Overall effectiveness. Team unity is the basic requirement of team cohesion and combat effectiveness. It is a fact that one chopstick is easy to break and the other is difficult to break. Among several members of the team, there are many differences in many aspects due to different backgrounds, experiences, educational levels and environmental impacts. The way of thinking about a problem, the way of dealing with a specific problem, and the understanding and views of some people will be different. This is a normal phenomenon, but if we don't pay attention to guidance and grasp, coordination and solution, it will easily lead to misunderstandings and even contradictions among team members. Zeng Guofan in the late Qing Dynasty Zeng Guofan was well United in the team of Zeng Guofan in the late Qing Dynasty led by Xiang Army. His team members are cultivated by their own small groups, formal classes and aristocrats, and he can unite them. Relatively speaking, Hong Xiuquan's men are equally talented and have the same belief, but Hong Xiuquan only cares about his own enjoyment and fails to unite the team, which leads to Shi Dakai's departure. Finally, only Chen Yucheng was left around. Therefore, as a leader, we must pay attention to the coordination of the relationship between team members. First of all, leaders should have a thorough and detailed understanding of each member's situation and be aware of it, which is the basis for grasping each team member. For example, a person's personality and temper, family status, way of dealing with people, education level, mass base, way of thinking, ability to recognize and judge problems, habitual expression of dealing with problems, social skills, ability to do ideological work for subordinates, breadth of knowledge, familiarity with business, outstanding advantages and disadvantages, experience and work experience. Secondly, leaders should strengthen their self-cultivation, improve their two qualities, establish their authority, and especially enhance their personality influence. Strike while the iron is hot. Power is not necessarily power. To have authority, we must convince everyone, and to convince everyone, we must have excellent quality. This requires the top leaders to put themselves in a correct position, treat themselves and others correctly, be modest and prudent, and constantly learn and improve. At the same time, we should care about people, understand people, be considerate, be one step ahead in honor and interests, be one step ahead in difficulties and problems, care for subordinates politically, support subordinates at work, help subordinates in life, and influence people with reason, emotion and noble character. Treat people with heart. From the state to the unit, the rule of virtue is the highest rule method. Alibaba President Ma Yun Alibaba President Ma Yungang had nothing when he started his business, but he, Alibaba President Ma Yun, relied on his personal charm to keep 18 people around until Alibaba achieved unprecedented success. Third, leaders should be fair, a bowl of water is flat, all members of the team should be treated equally, impartial, with clear rewards and punishments, and adhere to principles. There is no principle, no right or wrong, and everyone is at a loss; If you don't adhere to the principle, you can't tell right from wrong, and it is impossible to promote good and suppress evil; Stick to the principle, treat everyone equally, and don't favor one over the other. Everyone knows the story of Zhuge Liang's tearful beheading in Ma Su and Ma Su, just for the unity of Zhuge Liang's tearful beheading of Wei in Ma Su. In short, the back of the hand and the palm of the hand are all flesh, and all ten fingers are connected. To coordinate the relationship between team members, we must be fair and a bowl of water is flat. If leaders and team members are close and biased, it will certainly be difficult to coordinate their relationship. (3) fully mobilize the enthusiasm of all team members. A fence should fully mobilize the enthusiasm of all players. Three piles, one hero and three gangs. A person is covered in iron. How many nails can he hammer? Mobilizing the enthusiasm of all members and giving full play to their wisdom and role are the basic requirements for guiding quality. Can mobilize the enthusiasm of team members, they will consciously, actively and comfortably consider the overall situation of the work, work hard and diligently, and give you a good field and a good set; Otherwise, they will push, don't push, or even push. No matter what your job is, there are leaders on it anyway, and the sky is falling. They even hope that you can't work well and see your jokes. Therefore, we should fully understand the importance of mobilizing the enthusiasm of team members and strive to achieve the following points: First, we should not doubt people and employ people. Delegate power to the deputy, so that they can feel their position and role in the team and feel their life value; Second, give timely praise to subordinates who have made achievements in their work, so that they have a sense of accomplishment; Third, for the mistakes and deviations in the work of subordinates, we should not only point out in time, dare to criticize, but also pay attention to face, convince people by reasoning and persuade them not to hurt their self-esteem; Fourth, leaders should take responsibility and support their subordinates; Fifth, care about the needs of subordinates (such as personal political progress, family difficulties and problems, children's education and employment, help needed at work, etc.). ), create motivation for work, let them realize that doing well is good, doing badly is bad, and doing badly is bad, and establish the concept of Excellence. (2) Doing a good job in team building is the basis of doing a good job. There are only people who can't do well, and there is nothing wrong with them. Guiyang Weng 'an Incident The outbreak of Guiyang Weng 'an incident has its own special factors, and there are also factors that lead to the sudden occurrence of Guiyang Weng 'an incident, but more because Weng 'an does not have a good cadre team. In peacetime, cadres only care about themselves and ignore the interests of the masses and the relationship between cadres and the masses, which eventually leads to the outbreak of mass incidents. Therefore, we should regard team building as an important task. 1, we should start with positive education, guide all cadres to establish a correct world outlook, outlook on life and values, strengthen six concepts and achieve six guarantees, that is, strengthen the overall concept and ensure a good overall image; Strengthen the concept of learning to ensure the improvement of two qualities (political quality and professional quality); Strengthen the concept of unity and ensure the formation of joint forces; Strengthen the concept of clean government and ensure fair law enforcement; Strengthen the concept of discipline and ensure that orders are prohibited; Strengthen the concept of political achievements and ensure first-class performance. If cadres lack the overall concept, they will go their own way and fall apart, which will have a bad influence on the whole unit and damage the overall image; If cadres lack the concept of learning and are satisfied with the status quo, they will not be able to adapt to the needs of the new situation and fall behind the pace of the times; If cadres lack the concept of unity, they will compete for fame and gain, undermine each other and weaken collective strength; If there is a lack of discipline, it will be free and sloppy, and there will be orders that cannot be done and prohibitions, resulting in the result that what should be done cannot be done and should not be done; Without the concept of political achievements, there will be no progress and no use. 2, from the system construction, standardize the work. Without rules, there would be no Fiona Fang. Without system construction, a lot of work will be chaotic and arbitrary, and it will be impossible to coordinate and act. It is difficult to form a joint force to ensure the effectiveness of the work, and it is difficult to do a good job in the normalization and standardization of the organs. At the beginning of our party building, especially in the process of establishing the Red Army, we formulated three disciplines and eight points for attention, especially the Italian system in the process of establishing the Red Army. The observance of these systems laid a solid foundation for our party to establish an iron team and finally win the Italian system. Similarly, we should regard system construction as an important task. In particular, it is necessary to gradually modify and improve various systems according to the changes in the situation, and to do a good job in the implementation of various systems. There are no rules to follow, no rules to follow. We must ensure the effect of system construction by grasping the implementation of the system. 3, the implementation of full target management, rewards and punishment in place, to mobilize the enthusiasm of all employees. Doing a good job is the same as doing a bad job, regardless of rewards and punishments, it will dampen the enthusiasm of cadres. This is a fact proved by past practice. Distribution according to work is an important principle of our party and also stipulated by our constitution. Matching is not only an important principle of our party, but also stipulated by our constitution. Second, in-depth investigation and study, familiar with the overall situation, and enhance scientific decision-making ability. Chairman Mao said: Without investigation and study, there is no right to speak. Chairman Mao said: "Without investigation and study, there is no right to speak. "In other words, if you don't know the situation, you have no decision-making power. Therefore, in-depth investigation and study, familiar with the overall situation, is the basis of leading scientific decision-making. Standing in your own post, you must first understand what your unit does, what is the central work of the year, and what is the most important work in the current period. Secondly, we must first understand the work style of cadres; Understand the financial accounts again; Understand the regular business again; Then understand the main contradiction and secondary contradiction of this department. After that, if you are familiar with everything, you need to run to the upper management department. This is very important. If the upper management department is not familiar with it, you can't grasp whether the guiding ideology of work is in place, whether you stand high enough, whether the problem is comprehensive enough, and whether the decision is scientific. Third, adhering to democratic centralism, being good at planning and grasping the overall democratic centralism are two interrelated, interdependent and mutually restrictive aspects. Democracy is the premise and foundation of centralization, and centralization is the inevitable requirement and result of democracy. Only if democracy is not centralized, it will be difficult to unify everyone's actions, and democracy will become liberalism and anarchy; Without democracy, it is difficult to gather everyone's wisdom, and centralization will become paternalistic centralization. Therefore, we must correctly adhere to the principle of democratic centralism. 1. We should fully develop democracy and be a "psychologist". For a decision to fully develop democracy and become a "psychologist", it is necessary to go through full investigation and demonstration beforehand, analyze its reasons, process and results, and study the experiences and lessons of similar decisions. Doing so seems cumbersome, but it is a qualitative and quantitative process. As long as you are an experienced "psychologist", it only takes you a few seconds to make a decision when dealing with standard problems. But for major events, we should fully listen to everyone's opinions, especially different opinions. When making a decision, there is controversy, and it is very normal to have different opinions. The "number one leader" should be allowed to exist, and it is necessary to distinguish right from wrong through argument and unify thoughts. Listening to everyone's opinions with an open mind and absorbing their reasonable components can not only ensure the scientificity of decision-making, but also be a measure to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm and ensure that the decision-making process is in step. Otherwise, it will either lead to the deviation of decision-making, or the resistance of implementation, and even affect the unity of the team. The Red Army's Long March Four Crossing the Red Army's Long March Four Crossing the Chishui River was not designed in advance by the army's Long March Four Crossing the Red River, but was a collective decision made by the central government after consulting the frontline commanders and soldiers extensively according to the actual situation. 2. We should strengthen our communication ability with foreign countries and be a "diplomat". When "a leader wants to strengthen his ability to communicate with the outside world and be a good diplomat", he is not a "mountain king", but he can only lead a good team and be brave in starting a career, which requires a "leader" to have a high status, strong diplomatic ability and broad mind. On the contrary, we should be able to win policies and funds, open to the outside world, have smooth information and have many friends. Career development can be linked with the outside world, and everyone can help each other when they encounter difficulties. Finally, I want to make a simple summary in one sentence: to be a good "leader", we should be people-oriented, make good use of people, do a good job in team leadership, mobilize the enthusiasm of team members and all cadres to the maximum extent, adhere to the principle of democratic centralism, and make scientific decisions. Doing so will certainly promote all-round work and strive for first-class performance.
