Why should the employer employ the employer?

1. Anyone has one or more shortcomings and weaknesses, and these shortcomings and weaknesses are almost impossible to change, but we can try to prevent them from acting.
2. No matter who he is, if he wants to avoid weaknesses when hiring a person, the organization he leads must be mediocre.
3. The manager's task is to give full play to everyone's strengths and accomplish the task together, rather than changing people. This is the only purpose of an organization.
4. People can use all resources in an activity or field to achieve certain achievements.
5. Pay attention to a person's strengths, that is, to put forward requirements for his job performance. If a manager asks himself "what can he do" before employing people, he is sure that his subordinates are hard to contribute, this means that he has adopted a tolerant attitude towards his subordinates. A true "demanding boss" Always first explores what a person is best at and then "demanding" what he does.

How to use people? -- How to give full play to people's strengths (correct people are placed in the right place)

How can an effective manager use people to avoid falling into the trap of People-based tasks? Generally speaking, there are four principles:
1. Effective managers will not design their positions as competent only by God. (If a job fails to be held by two or three people, it is definitely a job that is not competent by ordinary people. This job must be redesigned. Therefore, the first task of an effective manager is to properly set the positions under his or her jurisdiction, and make the Organization that enables "ordinary people to do extraordinary things" a good organization)
2. Strict job requirements and wide coverage.
3. When employing people, consider what a person can do, rather than the requirements of the position.
4. The length of employment must be short.
Conclusion: The Employment Director is a must for effective managers, the key to the effectiveness of an organizational unit, and an indispensable quality for knowledge workers and society.

How to manage superiors?

It is the best way for managers to help their superiors make full use of their strengths:
1. Only by leveraging the strengths of your superiors can you focus on your contribution.
2. Start with the right things and give suggestions in a manner acceptable to the above companies (usually divided into "Reader" and "listener ")
3. Do not try to change the "boss" to help the boss exert its strengths and tolerate its weaknesses.
4. We should consider "how to make this suggestion" rather than "what advice" to our superiors"
5. As the saying goes, "Easy to observe, difficult to detect" is not difficult to make the boss effective.

How can we make full use of our strengths?

1. Most managers can understand what they cannot do (from common complaints about work and superiors)
2. The so-called "others do not let me do it" is probably an excuse for inertia and courage. In fact, no one can do anything without restrictions, but they can certainly do a lot of meaningful work.
3. Effective managers will adapt to their individual characteristics and habits and will not force themselves. He pays attention to his own performance and achievements to develop his work style.
4. Human nature is often the key to success or failure. If the requirement is valid, you must do it in the most appropriate way on the basis of understanding what you can do.
5. Practice: we not only need to ask our subordinates and superiors what they can do, but also ask ourselves the same question.
