Why do leading drivers get promoted quickly?
Many private enterprises have such a strange phenomenon. The person who gets the fastest promotion is the driver who drives the boss. You see so-and-so, graduated from junior high school, used to be a driver for the boss, and now he is the general manager of a branch company. Such things are not uncommon. Yan Jiehe, a famous entrepreneur, even said: The position of car driver is the cradle of our business owners. Are you surprised, appreciative or confused when you hear this phenomenon? Let's reveal the logic behind the driver's career fast lane. No boss will promote a person for no reason, let alone an ordinary driver who is not related by blood. Only those who are considered to have potential will be promoted and reused. Let's go back to the talent itself. What is talent? Knowledge, skills and experience are called talents? Perhaps this statement is correct for professional and technical and administrative logistics positions, but for management talents, the most important thing is not these. Knowledge can be learned, skills can be exercised, and experience can be accumulated, but only the way of thinking and behavior style are unique characteristics of a person, which are difficult to change, and are also important factors that determine whether a person can achieve something, not just achievements and how much success he has achieved. Thinking mode and behavior style are the core of identifying the potential of senior management talents. These two core elements are not presented on the resume, and it is difficult for people without rich experience to identify them. When a person has no diploma, knowledge background and management experience, what he can present to people can only be the way of thinking and behavior style. Therefore, to become a dark horse in the workplace, two conditions must be met. One is that the way of thinking and behavior style can be presented, and the other is that these two elements can be recognized by experienced people. And these two conditions happen to be met by the driver who drives the boss. Let's pull the camera back to the driver of the car. Driving the boss invisibly increases the exposure of thinking mode and behavior style, which is unmatched by any middle manager. Don't underestimate the position of driver, which requires not only driving skills but also brains. A shrewd driver knows how to choose a driving route and send his boss to his destination in the shortest time. Know which pick-up port is most convenient for the boss; Know what topics to talk to the boss on the road, and even know what style of car music the boss likes to listen to. Every detail that the driver considers will directly affect the boss's psychological feelings, and it is even easier for the boss to get the impression of this talent than the report submitted by a senior manager. In addition, the driver also has a communication advantage, that is, the communication environment between him and his boss is on the road, not in the office. As we all know, the boss is in a relaxed state except answering the phone on the road. In this state, people will naturally talk about family affairs and even company affairs. This kind of communication is more emotional, which will undoubtedly narrow the psychological distance between the parties. Therefore, no matter in the communication time or space environment, the bus driver occupies a great advantage to present himself and win the favor of the boss. The above is just a prelude. Whether the driver can be entrusted with an important task depends on the people in the car. The driver's reaction speed, attitude towards life, gfd, impatience or composure can all be shown through details, such as the way the driver handles unexpected situations on the road, the mentality when traffic jams, whether to drive steadily or brake suddenly, and so on. A caring boss, he will be very sensitive to notice these, so as to identify potential talents from a pile of drivers. The author summarizes the following points: 1. Drivers with high loyalty will appreciate and be impressed when they see the career and work created by their boss, and then they are willing to follow. Because they agree with a leader, they agree with this enterprise, and their feelings gradually accumulate and their loyalty is very high. 2. Work hard. Know how to be grateful and cherish opportunities. For drivers, it is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for leaders to promote themselves to management positions. They will be very grateful to Bole, grateful to the enterprise and cherish the hard-won opportunity. 4. Knowing the boss's informal communication makes it easier for drivers to understand the boss's temperament, way of thinking and values, and also cultivates the tacit understanding of communication, which is very important for people who are the boss's right-hand man.
