Huawei Ren zhengfei's speech: openness, compromise and gray scale

An important quality of a leader is the direction and pace. Its level is suitable for gray scale. A clear direction is generated in chaos. It stands out from the gray, and the direction changes with time and space. It often becomes unclear. Neither white nor black nor either

One of the most important core values of Huawei is openness and enterprising. This article has been controversial for a long time during the discussion of the e-mapreduce (Administrative Management Team. Huawei is a company with strong innovation capabilities. is openness so important? As a result of success, we are becoming more confident, proud, and complacent, and we are becoming more and more autistic. We exaggerate openness and learn more from others, so that we can have a new goal, a real self-review, and a sense of urgency in the Times.

1. Unswervingly correct orientation comes from gray scale, compromise and tolerance.

Today, we propose to direct combat troops by means of positive cash flow, positive profit flow, and positive growth in human resource efficiency, and by means of checks and balances by separation of powers through authorization, authority, and supervision, it is also a change. In this change, there may be a conflict with the direction of decision-making over the past two decades. It will also involve the opportunities and future of many people. I think we must understand and tolerate each other.

The word compromise seems to be understandable to everyone, so you don't have to go into it. The Connotation and meaning of compromise are much richer than its literal meaning, and understanding it is totally different from practice. Our Huawei cadres are too young and bloody, so they do not have to understand the necessary compromises and generate great resistance. Throughout the history of China, although it has had an absolute impact on China's social progress, most of them have not reached the ideal of the transformer. In my opinion, in the face of their age environment, their changes are too radical, too rigid, and the methods to break through resistance are too harsh. If they use it for a long time, rather than being too urgent and comprehensive, the results may be better. There is a lack of grayscale. The direction is uncertain, but it is not a straight line. It may be a curve that keeps swinging between the left and the right. In some time periods, it will still draw a circle, but we are far away or rough, its direction is still firmly pointed to the front.

We often say that the important qualities of a leader are direction and rhythm. Its level is suitable for gray scale.

A clear direction is generated in chaos. It stands out from the gray, and the direction changes with time and space. It often becomes unclear. It is neither white nor black nor either. A fair grasp of the appropriate gray scale is a factor that affects development. During a period of time, such a process is called compromise, the result of this *** is called grayscale. (REN zhengfei opposed reform for reform and put forward the concept of "gray Governance". Governance should be suitable for national conditions. In specific practices, he insisted on "seven opposition", that is, "decisive opposition to perfectionist, decisively opposed tedious philosophy, decisive opposition to blind innovation, decisive opposition to partial optimization without global benefits improvement, and decisive opposition to cadre-led changes without a holistic view, decisively opposed those who have no business practical experience to participate in the change, and decisively opposed the process that has not been fully demonstrated for practical use. "-- editor's note)

　　2. tolerance is the way for leaders to succeed

Why should we be tolerant to supervisors at all levels? This is related to the nature of the leadership work. Any job involves two aspects: dealing with things and dealing with people. Not tolerant and does not affect dealing with things. He is a strange man in science, but his job is to work with an instrument in a lab. Employees in a workshop only deal with machines. Even if they cannot work with everyone, it will not prevent him from using his skills to produce exquisite products. However, any manager must deal with one another. Some people define governance as "skills to do a good job through others ". Once you interact with one another, the importance of tolerance is immediately displayed. The difference between people exists objectively. The so-called tolerance is essentially to tolerate the difference between people. Whether people with different personalities, specialties, and preferences can converge under the banner of organizational goals and visions depends on the governance's tolerance.

Tolerating others means tolerating ourselves. A little more tolerance to others. In reality, we have a little more space in our lives.

Tolerance is a kind of strength, not weakness. The concession embodied in tolerance is purposeful and planned, and the initiative is in your own hands. Helpless and forced cannot be considered tolerant.

Only a brave person can understand how to be tolerant. A coward will never be tolerant. This is not his nature. Tolerance is a virtue.

Only by being tolerant can we unite the majority of people in the same direction with you. Only by compromise can we reduce confrontation in the Right Direction unswervingly. Only in this way can we achieve your goal.

3. No gray scale without compromise

Adhering to the correct direction is not in conflict with compromise. On the contrary, compromise is a firm adherence to the unwavering direction.

Of course, the direction cannot be compromised, and the principles cannot be compromised. However, everything in the process of achieving the goal can be compromised. As long as it is conducive to achieving the goal, why cannot we compromise? When the target direction is clear, if the road is disconnected, let's make a compromise and make a detour, which is better than standing in the same place. Why should we hit the south wall? In the eyes of some people, compromise seems to be a manifestation of weakness and firmness. It seems that only by trying not to compromise can we show the true nature of a hero. However, this alternative way of thinking is to identify the relationship between people as the relationship between conquest and conquest, and there is no room for compromise.

"Compromise" is really a very pragmatic, changing power of the jungle smart, all wise men in the human nature jungle, know the right time to accept others' compromise, or propose a compromise to others, whether people want to survive, it depends on reason, not ambition.

"Compromise" is what the two or more parties reach under certain conditions. It is not the best solution to the problem, but before there is no better solution, it is the best method, because it has many advantages.

Compromise does not mean giving up the principle and making concessions. Wise compromise is an appropriate exchange. In order to achieve the main goal, you can make appropriate concessions on the secondary goal. Such a compromise does not completely abandon the principle, but is to retreat and ensure the realization of the goal through appropriate exchanges. On the contrary, an unwise compromise is the lack of proper trade-offs, or the abandonment of the primary goal by sticking to the secondary goal, or the price of compromise is too high to suffer unnecessary losses. Wise compromise is an art of concession, and compromise is also a virtue. grasping this superb art is a necessary quality for managers.

Only by compromise can we achieve "win-win" and "win-win", otherwise both sides will inevitably suffer. As compromise can eliminate conflicts and refuse to compromise, it must be a prelude to confrontation. Our cadres at all levels must truly understand the art of compromise, learn to be tolerant, and maintain an open mind, it will truly reach the level of gray scale, and it will be able to go further on the right road and go more solid.
