Nine good ideas that IT staff cannot ignore

We live in an age of good ideas, but when it comes to prioritizing good ideas, there is no real consensus at all. I work with my colleagues to systematically think about the good ideas around us: what these good ideas are, why they are important, the progress they have made, and the obstacles that prevent any good ideas from reaching the next level.

"51cto.com" We live in an age of good ideas, but when it comes to prioritizing good ideas, there is no real consensus at all. I work with my colleagues to systematically think about the good ideas around us: what these good ideas are, why they are important, the progress they have made, and the obstacles that prevent any good ideas from reaching the next level.

The original intention of this article is that if we understand the good ideas of the world, we may be able to create a better future.

19th century French novelist Victor Hugo wrote: "Man can resist the invasion of the army, but cannot resist the idea of invasion." "But it is clear that the invasion may be overlooked. The first shock I had in my research was that, in many corporate organizations, the invasion of good ideas seemed to stagnate.

In many cases, good ideas exist in press releases, public statements by CEOs, and marketing campaigns, not part of the operational agenda. Why are they in many cases divorced from what happens every day? Why do organizations spend a lot of time researching and refining ideas, but seldom take the time to make sure they are consistent?

Here are nine good ideas that cannot be ignored.

The first good idea: others are others.

Considerate of others is essential. IT staff really care about the end user experience. If you come up with an idea that you think is a good way to solve a user problem, but tell the person who used it, but the response is mediocre, it's probably not a good solution. You have to listen to the user and stand in the other person's shoes and learn how to come up with a good solution. It's not easy. William James, one of America's most important philosophers, has William James that it is particularly difficult to really stand on the point of view of others.

Second good idea: an expert is not an expert.

What often hinders innovation is those who are too naïve to think that nothing can be done. Successful managers actively listen to the ideas of team members with varying experience. In a changing world, the rewards of expertise are limited.

Third Good idea: you don't need to know everything.

No one knows what is limited, so don't blame yourself for the lack of knowledge. You definitely need to know something, but the best example is the thought leader in your field. You should have a good relationship with someone who knows your lack of knowledge. Networking determines the height of your development.

The fourth good idea: enterprises should be ready to meet good ideas.

When Apple Newton was first launched in 1993, few companies and executives were ready to meet mobile computing. All this has changed by the time Apple's iphone was released in 2007. It's a good idea to have a way to make the business organization better prepared to take action after a good idea emerges.

A fifth good idea: "good" is relative.

Singularity University's definition of good ideas is that it will positively affect the lives of 1 billion people in 10 years. In some institutions, a good idea is higher than the purchasing power of a department manager. How do you define "good ideas" in your business?

A sixth good idea: not all good ideas can last.

The key to making a high-quality decision is to know how much an idea costs and how long a project will take. The input should be proportional to the lasting value. Mistakes may eventually become a monument to unwise judgments. In the era of colonial expansion and Industrialization, Britain built railways and railway stations around the world, thinking they were the symbol of the future. Many of these stations are now unknown or no longer present.

A seventh good idea: some good ideas will only push us in the right direction.

For nearly 30 years, the paperless economy has always been a good idea, but it has not been achieved at all. But that doesn't mean it's a bad idea. Over the years, we have been close to paperless, has not yet reached the other side of success, but the goal is still tempting. After analyzing the data in 2012, the McKinsey Global Institute concluded that if we moved away from paper (and email) and switched to more modern ways of collaborating, such as Slack, Jive, Yammer, chatter, and Google Apps, productivity could be up to 25% higher.

Eighth good idea: the status quo is not completely broken.

Not everything we do at the moment is stupid. In the words of playwright Bertold Blechte (Bertolt Brecht), "Old wisdom and new wisdom are well combined." "There is a lot of wisdom in business today. The key is figuring out how to use and preserve the knowledge and practices that are still important, and discard those unimportant knowledge and practices.

The ninth good idea: good ideas often start out as "bad" ideas.

100 years ago, homework was considered "a sin against childhood life." ”
