Chapter 4 Vienna is waiting for you

The3Chapter Vienna is waiting for you.

A few years ago, I spoke with the project manager of a major project in southern California about their respective hardships. He began to describe the impact of putting the project and crazy schedule on his subordinates. One is two divorce cases, which can be traced back to their frequent overtime work. The other is an employee's child taking drugs, probably because in the past year, the child's father was too busy to fulfill his responsibilities as a father. At last, the test team owner had a mental breakdown.

When talking about "Smart Work", it is common to feel that management in the real world is at the cost of employees' lives to a greater extent, let them work harder and longer. Managers keep boasting about the overtime hours of their employees and the tricks that can extract more time from these people.

A sentence from the back

Although your staff may be affected by the phrase "working longer and harder" in the office, what you hear from their home is completely different Chinese. At home, I heard that "Life is leaving you. The clothes you want to wash are full of wardrobes. No one is holding your baby. Your beautiful wife begins to look at other places. The life of a carousel is only the last lap, and only the last chance to win. If you use your life on C ......"

But you know, when you ask the defendant to know,

You can get what you want, or you can only get old,

You are about to get out of the game before you get halfway through,

When do you realize that Vienna is waiting for you?

Vienna is waiting for you. In Billy's lyrics, it is the last stop of your life. When you get there, everything is done. If you think that your project team members are not worried about such a heavy topic, think about it. Your subordinates know that the life God has given to everyone is short, and they know that there are more important things than the stupid work they are doing.

There is no overtime in the world.

In the short term, it may be good for you, but in the long term, these benefits will be offset.

Crazy kid, slow down,

Remove the phone and disappear for a while,

By the way, you can relax for a day or two,

When do you realize ...... Vienna is waiting for you?

Overtime is like a sprint: in a marathon race, the last few hundred meters is very important for those who have surplus energy, but if you start a sprint for the first mile, you are just wasting time. For managers, if they try to make people sprint too much, the result will only lose their respect. The best employees have already experienced this: when managers roar that the job must be completed by April, they know that it is enough to keep silence and turn their eyes. They can then make up for the rest, and end up working 40 hours a week. Good employees respond in that way, while all others are workaholic.

Workaholic

The workaholic will work overtime and does not need to take a rest. Although their work efficiency may be reduced, they will spend too much time working. If you put enough pressure on them, they will take a long way to harm their personal life, but this is just a moment. Such information will be sent to the ears of the most attentive workaholic:

Slow down, you're doing well,

Before you die, you cannot fulfill all your wishes,

Although it is very romantic on the edge line tonight,

But when do you realize that ...... Vienna is waiting for you?

Once you have realized this, you have completely lost this employee after completing this project. Realizing that a person sacrifices more important values (family, love, family, and youth) for unimportant values (work) is destructive, it will make a person who once unknowingly makes a sacrifice seek revenge. He will not ask his boss for a calm and rational explanation. In the future, things must be changed. He just resigned. This is another situation where enthusiasm and energy are exhausted. For example, he has left.

How do you deal with your workaholic as a manager? If you use a typical Spanish theory as a method group to read and exploit them, you will eventually lose them. No matter how hard you are, they need to put all their time into the project, you cannot let them live alone at the cost of doing so. It is not worthwhile to lose a good person. This is beyond the narrow scope of workaholic and has entered a more complex topic:MeaningfulProductivity.

Productivity: win the battle and lose the war

The next time you listen to someone talking about productivity, whether or not the person who listens carefully uses "People flow" is likely to be absent. Over the years, I have heard discussions about "productivity" or seen hundreds of articles on this, we never met an expert who talked about the subject of "Staff adjustment. But what is the significance of talking only about one and not about another? The following describes what the company usually wants to do to improve productivity:

<! -- [If! Supportlists] --> L <! -- [Endif] --> force people to work overtime

<! -- [If! Supportlists] --> L <! -- [Endif] --> mechanization of the product development process

<! -- [If! Supportlists] --> L <! -- [Endif] --> compromise on Product Quality

<! -- [If! Supportlists] --> L <! -- [Endif] --> standardize the production process

Any of these measures may potentially reduce the interest and satisfaction of your work. Therefore, the process of improving productivity is to take risks and increase the flow of people. This does not mean that productivity cannot be improved without the cost of human mobility. This only means that the flow of personnel needs to be taken into account at any time to achieve higher productivity. Otherwise, the "improvement" will be offset by the loss of key talents.

In fact, no one can tell you what the cost of replacing an experienced employee group is.

When people are overwhelmed by time, they do not work better, but work faster. They don't have the pleasure of working, and they will escape once they have the opportunity.
