Everyone has a weekend.

Brother is also resting ~ Check the email though.

I 'd like to think about it or the management is poor.

That is, the problem lies in us. We are not enough, and our capabilities are limited. Most of the time, companies don't care how you make money. You can do whatever you want, except for not doing anything illegal. The more powerful, the more free. Therefore, sometimes it is not always the case that the blame company is responsible for middle-level management.

What's wrong is that everyone thinks (and knows) that there is a problem. However, too few people can solve the problem systematically. This requires not only good development capabilities and Awareness (most of the management promoted by development only sees this), but also strong communication and external collaboration capabilities. For example, the Department can coordinate your ideas well. Can be integrated with the customer, so that the other party can accept your views and methods, or at least affect the other party in a deeper manner. Systematically propose overall management ideas, including processes, tools, development methods, and team building and assessment. Then, we can promote the implementation of this system very well (this requires training, assessment and strong PR capabilities after problems, and it is impossible to avoid any problems ).

And all this must be done without losing money. At least "It is very profitable in the long term ". Otherwise, it is impossible for the company to support you.

Therefore, under such limited resources, few people can accomplish these tasks well, and a relatively good environment and team conditions are also required. The market is so cruel. (In this competitive condition, a winning team can bring consumers the most cost-effective products)

So it is really hard to find.

Because it is really easy to talk on paper, but it is difficult to do it. Mankun's top ten principles of Economics: people will respond to incentives, and any measure will lead to unexpected negative effects. Therefore, when thinking about a lot of things, we feel that we can "do this well", but it may bring some adverse effects after doing so. It is not easy to weigh and avoid these effects. (Empty talk about mistakes !)

Mankun gave an example: At first the car had no seat belt. Therefore, the death rate of drivers is very high after an accident. Later, the United States introduced a related policy that requires a seat belt and a seat belt for driving.

Good news? But what are the unexpected results? The death rate of drivers in the accident has indeed dropped a lot. However, the overall traffic accident mortality rate has increased!

Why? Because the death risk after the driver's accident is reduced, the car is no longer so careful as before, and the average speed starts to rise, which eventually leads to an increase in the accident rate.

The same is true when we do things on our own.

For example, if we feel that there is no way to manage people when there is no performance, we cannot make everyone work together according to the company's needs, but if you really want to perform performance, promotions and salary increases are all based on KPIs, with this baton, everyone will follow the indicators to do what can improve performance, and do nothing that cannot improve performance. So there are a lot of things that are actually very important, but it is difficult to quantify them, so no one cares about what nobody does. At least in the short term, it is impossible to have such a perfect performance system.

For example, I now feel that our demand analysis is poor. Because we don't have time to do this. We only have a month or two. It's impossible to fully understand it. Well, what would happen if I took someone to do this demand analysis? Maybe the best result is that, like the current demand analysis done by Company S, we do the rest of the Foundation. S no matter what the implementation difficulty is, whether it is easier for us to understand what they do or not, there is no good way to measure that what they do is "complete? Right ?". It is hard to say how to divide the responsibilities of the persons who need to analyze.

It's too difficult to do these things. If you do it well, in addition to admiring the popularity of Nb, it is absolutely necessary to sigh "luck.

Most of the time, we can only say "Alas, how can this project be done again" for various reasons ". I think, as long as you want to make a meaningful career, it will inevitably end up like this. It is the same everywhere.

To be truly "successful", we need to rely on Tianji, location, and people.

And perseverance. This is because only a few teams are successful. The great sense of accomplishment of success is also here.
