Human Factor in Management

11 Feb -- from Daily Drucker

Human Factor in Management
Management is about human beings.

The task of management is to make people capable of joint performance, to make their strengths effective and their weaknesses irrelevant. This is what organization is all about, and it is the reason that management is the critical, determining factor.

Management must be built on communications and on individual responsibility. All members need to think through what they aim to accomplish -- and make sure their associates know and understand that aim. All have to think through what they owe to others -- and make sure that others understand. All have to think through what they, in turn, need from others -- and make sure others know what is expected of them.

Management must enable the enterprise and each of its members to grow and to develop as needs and opportunities change.

Action Point: Are you a great actor in a terrible play? What are you going to do about it?

点滴感悟_2

这是今天的感悟，来自于地产大亨:Donald Trump:

1. The leader wants to be popular, wants to be loved, that leader ultimately is not gonna make it.

2. More often a time, you see your opponent and you say it to yourself: "This is going to be easy." That's the worst thing you could do, never underestimate your opponent, assume your opponent is the toughest and smartest person in the world, because that can really leave the victory.

告诫自己的第一条：

如果必要，要留有back-up，不要在一棵树上吊着！

做项目如此，因为任何步骤都会有不确定因素存在； 人生亦如此，俗话说狡兔三窟，要给自己留有后路！
