Liu Bei, who was demoted by his opponent to make up seats and shoes, was a rich common people hundreds of years later, although his ancestors were Wang Jing from Zhongshan. He can be said to be an entrepreneur who really started from the grassroots. It is such a person, starting from Liu, who made three vows in Taoyuan, visited the thatched cottage three times and invited Kong Ming, and Zhou Yu won Jingzhou, helping to win Xichuan, and finally became a vassal, claiming the title of king and emperor with millions of wealth. Liu Bei's growth track is similar to that of many small and medium-sized enterprises: fierce competition (at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the eighteen-route princes coveted the world); Lack of talents (Liu Bei's strength is weak, and most of the talents went to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Sun Quan). Then how to gain a foothold in the fierce competition in troubled times and win the world, Liu Bei's growth trajectory has given us a lot of inspiration.
Liu Bei's first thought is to solve the problem of talent shortage. In troubled times, the most important person is a military commander, which is directly related to whether the main boss can survive. For an enterprise, the most scarce talent is probably the product development level. The first point of the 4P law is the product. The first thing that enterprises need to solve is how to make good products, and making good products is what product developers need to do. We can understand that when Shi Yuzhu first entered the field of online games, he was willing to spend huge sums of money to introduce R&D talents from Shanda. Liu Bei knew this well, so at the beginning of his debut, he became close friends with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two great men in the world, won the hearts of the two heroes, and vowed to die together, so the two great men in the world wiped the floor for him. Facts have proved that it was the efforts of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei that kept Liu Bei from falling down in troubled times.
However, after solving the problem of military commanders, Liu Bei still seems unable to gain a foothold. He still lives among various governors and relies on others. Even if Cao Cao praises him as a hero, he can only play dumb. After getting to know Xu Shu, he realized that he had to solve the problem of talent structure. In Xinye, Xu Shu woke the dreamer with a word. Liu Bei is strong and weak, and both civil and military are like the wings of a bird. Only when his wings take off can he have a bright future in Wan Li. Therefore, Liu Bei soon became a military adviser to Xu Shu. When Xu Shu arrived at his post, the situation was different immediately. Xu Shu immediately helped Liu Bei defeat the invading Cao Jun. Unfortunately, it didn't last long. Xu Shu was deceived by Cao Cao to Xuchang, and Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang, who had the reputation of Wolong, according to Xu Shu's suggestion. Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, and Liu Bei ushered in the spring of growth. His career was smooth and his performance was rising. After that, with the help of Zhuge Liang, he captured the hearts of Feng Chu and Pang Tong. From then on, the best counselors in the world were all on Liu Bei's account, and Liu Bei's "the world's first fierce generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, etc." Since then, Liu Bei Group has soared and its strength has greatly increased, and it was once in an advantage among the three countries. Facts have proved that in any organization, only when all kinds of talents come together and work together can we promote the realization of organizational goals.
In Liu Bei Group, Liu Bei is the chairman and Zhuge Liang is the CEO. Liu Bei knows what he wants, but he doesn't know how to realize it. What does Liu Bei want? Wang Ye is impartial, and China thief uncomfortable? What do you want? Cut off the Han thieves and revive the Han family? But how to achieve it, Zhuge Liang gave him the answer, that is? Three steps, three steps to the world? The first step is to seize Jingzhou and gain a firm foothold; The second step is to seize Xichuan and get a place to grow up; The third step is to go out and give up and seize the world. In these three steps, President Liu Bei saw the hope of success in his career, and the haze in his heart for many years was swept away. From then on, he no longer lamented that he was forty years old and his career revival failed. His life is full of vigor, spirit, enthusiasm and fighting spirit. In an enterprise organization, the chairman often knows what he wants, but he doesn't necessarily know what steps to take to realize it. At this time, the role of professional managers came out.
Is it sure to solve the problem of talent shortage and talent structure based on the world? In fact, Yuan Shao, the chairman of Yuan Shao, had Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Tian Feng, and Kyushu was the fourth best soldier in the world, with millions of troops and terrible influence, but it was defeated by Chairman Cao in the battle of Guandu. There are many reasons for Chairman Yuan's failure. The most crucial point is that Yuan Shao doesn't know how to recruit talented people and make the best use of them. Therefore, Xu You threw himself into Cao Cao at night, burned his nest, ruined Yuan Shao's great cause of destroying Cao Cao, and eventually vomited blood and died. Chairman Liu Bei knows better than Cao Cao and Yuan Shao how to recruit talented people and give full play to their talents.
However, in addition to work income, all talents may be more concerned about whether they are respected by their bosses. And Liu Bei just surpassed all the princes of the Three Kingdoms at this point. Liu Bei has a deep insight into the psychological needs of professional managers. He knows that he is weak and has no promise of high officials and generous salaries. He can only rely on respect for professional managers in exchange for their sincere treatment. Therefore, Liu Bei will visit the cottage and invite Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain in exchange for Zhuge Liang's dedication; Even if Liu Zhang didn't get rid of Zhang Song and others, Liu Bei could personally greet him in three hundred miles, in exchange for Zhang Song giving him a detailed map of surprisingly, which gave him half of surprisingly. Holding hands and looking at each other with tears shows Liu Bei's sincerity in respecting professional managers. Getting rid of Adou, an obedient child, shows Liu Bei's infinite respect for professional managers. Correspondingly, Yuan Shao's temperament was in chaos because of his child's illness. Xu You offered a plan and rebuked Xu You, making Yuan Shao 'an unbeaten and Liu Bei 'an invincible.
It may be enough to respect talents in cages, but people do their best by decentralization and trust. After Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang out of the mountain, he was given military and political power. When Xinye was burned, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei not only didn't think highly of this fragile scholar, but also asked discontentedly? We've all been out fighting. What do you do, lawyer? Such extreme dissatisfaction and contempt for Zhuge Liang. But Liu Bei understood the importance of trust and decentralization, so when Zhuge Liang assigned him a task, Liu Bei respectfully accepted the task and took the lead in setting an example, leaving Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others speechless. This is the most important point in management: the cost of trust is lower than that of distrust, and the cost of decentralization is lower than that of non-decentralization. Zhuge Liang didn't live up to Liu Bei's trust, and even created the myth of winning more with less in Xinye Town. Zhuge Liang did not blame Liu Bei for decentralization, but fully decentralized to ensure the implementation in place and the victory of the campaign.
It was Liu Bei who solved the three most important problems in team management: talent shortage; The problem of talent structure; The problem of how to recruit talents and how to make the best use of them finally made Chairman Liu a leader in the fierce competition among the three countries.
Taking history as a mirror, we can know the gains and losses, and Liu Bei's team management experience is worth learning. ;
