Has the training been used?

Commercial News (trainee reporter Torrecid) "Training in the end there is no use?" "Everyone has a different view of the usefulness of training, influenced by the training environment and individual experiences."

Recently, in Hangzhou, the Human Resources Management Association held in 2012, the first HR discussion activities, many well-known enterprises, human resources Director has introduced their own enterprises how to train staff. Wang Lijun, the human resources director of Alibaba (China) Network Technology Co., has made such a diametrically opposed point.

"Training is useless, growth is your own business." "she said.

Experience and qualifications are not the primary criteria for investigation

"Man" is always the most important asset of the company. Wang Lijun that Alibaba's talent training is from the moment of recruitment.

"The right person is half the success." "She introduced herself when recruiting a new employee, she would follow the following 3 rules: First, find like-minded people; second, potential is not just experience and ability; Three, always do warn.

"Experience is not a prerequisite. She said she would often ask a candidate to tell him or her the happiest thing in the interview. Because from the answer to this question, she can see whether the source of the candidate's happiness is transfer or possession.

"The people we're looking for are going to be" glowing, "rather than needing to be" illuminated "by others. She cited an example of an interview with a female graduate student at Kezhen College in Zhejiang University. The girl studied statistics for 7 years and wanted to apply to Alibaba's data analyst, both in terms of qualifications and experience.

"She passed the first two rounds of interviews and was brushed off by me during the third round of interviews," she said. A lot of people came to me and asked me, why not this wonderful girl? At this time, I will tell them, because the girl can not find herself. Wang Lijun said, in the conversation with the girl, she quickly found that the girl is very well-behaved, from childhood to most of the parents did not worry about, but she has a goal, but does not enjoy the process, can not find the fun of work.

Training is useless, growing is your business

As for the training of the employees of the enterprise, Wang Lijun think it is useless.

"Growth is your own business and heroes are in the battlefield." "She believes that the company's staff training is actually very inefficient, many people may have just finished training to forget all the content."

So Alibaba in the promotion of an employee, never look at what the employee has been trained, but to see whether the employee has "fallen", "fall" can not climb up again.

At Alibaba, she says, it is very common for an employee who sees a promotion to be suddenly sent to a small, remote department. "People without setbacks are not powerful, and future Ali will face global competition." So the people in our company must be able to withstand the toss. "If the transferred employee is able to stand up again, it is the promotion that awaits him," she said.

She introduced, Alibaba employees are divided into four categories, respectively, for stars, ox, wild dogs and small white Rabbit. "Star" refers to have only then has the virtuous staff, "ox" refers to the ability nearly but the hard work staff, "The Wild Dog" refers to has only then not virtuous staff, "The small White Rabbit" refers to has the virtuous talented employee.

"70% of our in-house staff are ox, and 15% of our employees are small white rabbits and wild dogs. "She said, for wild dogs, no matter how much talent, they are discarded, and for the rabbit, they will give him (her) time to grow, if you can not grow up, it can only be eliminated."

Political commissar System, open another promotion channel

In Alibaba's human resources system, the biggest characteristic should belong to their "Commissar system".

As the saying goes, a radish a pit, for a fast-growing enterprise, has the ability, outstanding performance of the talent is increasing, but "pit" is so few. How to solve this problem? Alibaba has combed the staff promotion channel, set up the M (management) and P (Professional, is called Commissar) two sequence, this is more than the other enterprise one times "pit".

We have the big Commissar, the small Commissar, that is, the P sequence to distinguish the political status. We will choose excellent business staff to do the Commissar, will give them considerable power, every business manager will be around the general configuration of a Commissar, all the big business decisions, business managers have to communicate with the Commissar, to solicit the views of the county, the Commissar is not under the leadership of the business manager, but orders from the commander. "She introduced.
