One day, Geng Xu angrily asked Mozi: Teacher, among so many students, am I so bad that I should be scolded by your old man often? Mozi didn't get angry at this: suppose I'm going to Taihang Mountain now. In your opinion, should I use a horse-drawn cart or drag the tiller with an old cow? Answer: Every fool knows how to use a horse-drawn cart well. ? Mozi asked again:? So, why not use the old cow? The plow column replied: The reason is simple, because a good horse can shoulder the heavy responsibility and is worth driving away. ? Mozi said:? Your answer is absolutely right. I often scold you just because you can shoulder the heavy responsibility and deserve your teaching and correction again and again. ?

One day, Yan Hui finally got some white rice to cook. When the rice was almost cooked, Confucius saw Yan Hui lift the lid and put some white rice in his mouth. Confucius pretended not to see it and didn't ask.
When the meal was ready, Yan Hui invited Confucius to dinner, and Confucius pretended to say thoughtfully. I just dreamed that my ancestors came to see me. I want to bring clean rice that no one has eaten to worship my ancestors first! ?
Yan Hui suddenly panicked and said? No, I have eaten this pot of rice first, so I can't worship my ancestors first. ?
Confucius asked: Why?
Yan Hui blushed and said shyly? When I was cooking just now, I accidentally dropped some grey rice in the pot. Unfortunately, I lost the grey rice, so I had to catch it first. I didn't eat it on purpose. ?
Hearing this, Confucius suddenly realized that he felt guilty for his observation and said with regret. I usually trust Yan Hui the most, but I still doubt him, which shows that the most difficult thing in our hearts is stability. Disciples, write this down. It's really not easy to know someone! ?

According to legend, human ancestors originally spoke the same language. They found an unusually fertile land between the Tigris River and the Euphrates River, so they settled there and established a prosperous city of Babylon. Later, their lives became better and better, and people were proud of their achievements. They decided to build a towering tower in Babylon to celebrate their great fame and as a symbol of gathering brothers from all over the world to avoid dispersion.
Because everyone speaks the same language, communicates smoothly and can work together, so the stepped Tower of Babel was built very smoothly and soon rose to the sky. When God learned about it, he immediately came down from heaven to inspect it. When God saw it, he was surprised and angry, because God did not allow mortals to reach their own heights. Seeing that people are so unified and powerful, he thinks that if people speak the same language and communicate efficiently, they can build such a huge tower. What can't I do in the future?
Therefore, God decided to confuse the languages in the world so that people could not talk to each other. People have different languages, can't communicate, and it is difficult to unify their thoughts, which eventually leads to poor communication. It is inevitable that there will be mutual suspicion, disagreement and quarrel. This is the beginning of misunderstanding between human beings. Construction stopped because of poor communication caused by language disputes, the great power of mankind disappeared, and the Tower of Babel finally gave up halfway.
This fable tells us that the power of communication is enormous. If we want to accomplish something great, we must know how to communicate and be good at it. Communication succeeds, communication fails.
Celebrity stories of successful communication 4
Wang Lan is a typical northern girl. She can clearly feel the enthusiasm and frankness of northerners. She likes frankness, and she is always willing to talk about her ideas with everyone. It is precisely because of this feature that she was very popular with teachers and classmates during her school days. This year, Wang Lan graduated from a university in Xi with a major in human resource management. She believes that after four years of study, she not only has solid knowledge of human resource management, but also has strong interpersonal communication skills, so she has high expectations for her future. In order to realize her dream, she resolutely went to Guangzhou to apply for a job alone.
After nearly a month's repeated resumes and interviews, after weighing various factors, Wang Lan finally selected a company in Dongguan to develop and produce food additives. He chose this company because of its moderate scale and rapid development. The most important thing is that its human resource management is still in the trial stage. If Wang Lan joins, she will be the first person in the human resources department, so she thinks she has a lot of room to display her ability.
But after a week's internship in the company, Wang Lan was in trouble.
It turns out that the company is a typical small family business, and the key positions in the enterprise are basically held by the relatives of the boss, which is full of various nepotism. In particular, the boss arranged for his eldest son to be the temporary supervisor of Wang Lan, who is mainly responsible for the company's R&D work and has no management concept at all, let alone human resource management concept. In his eyes, only technology. Most importantly, as long as the company can make money, nothing else matters. However, Wang Lan believes that the more he does this, the greater the space for him to develop his abilities. So, on the fifth day in the company, Wang Lan took his proposal and went to the office of his immediate superior.
Manager Wang, I've been in the company for almost a week. I have some ideas I want to talk to you about. Do you have a minute? Wang Lan went to the manager's desk and said.
Come on, Xiao Yang, I should have told you a long time ago, but I've been stuck in the lab recently and forgot about it.
Manager Wang, an enterprise, especially an enterprise in the rising period, must work hard on management if it wants to develop continuously. I have been in the company for almost a week. According to my current understanding of the company, I think the main problem of the company lies in the unclear definition of responsibilities; Employees' autonomy is too small, which makes employees feel that the company lacks trust in them; The formulation of employee salary structure and level is arbitrary, lacking scientific and reasonable basis, and the fairness and incentive of salary are low. Wang Lan began to tell Manager Wang one by one according to the outline he had listed in advance.
Manager Wang frowned slightly and said: These problems you mentioned do exist in our company, but you must admit the fact that our company is profitable, which shows that the system currently implemented by our company is reasonable.
However, the immediate development does not mean that it can be developed in the future, and many family businesses are defeated in management.
Ok, so do you have any specific plans?
Not yet, these are just my thoughts, but if I get your support, I think it's only a matter of time before I make a plan.
Then go back and make a plan first and put your materials here. I'll have a look first and then give you an answer. After that, Manager Wang's attention returned to the research report.
Wang Lan really felt the disappointment of not being recognized at this time, and she seemed to have predicted the result of her first suggestion.
Sure enough, Wang Lan's proposal sank into the sea, and Manager Wang seemed to have completely forgotten it. Wang Lan was lost in confusion. She doesn't know whether she should continue to communicate with her superiors or simply give up the job and find another development space.
