Select the five tips that these executives have summed up. This is both their personal experience and the advice of professional managers who want to leave large companies to start a business. Entrepreneurship, even need to use Gbagbo bo future things, you are ready to meet the baptism of the storm?

I. Do not follow the inherent experience

Yang Technology President (formerly NetEase Vice President, Dispatch editor-in-chief, "Beijing News" editor-in-chief)

I served in the Southern Metropolis Daily, the Beijing News and Dispatch. In NetEase as vice president, directly to Ding Lei report work, professional managers in this line has basically touched the ceiling, and then go up the possibility is very small; even if the promotion, the work is homogeneous, repeat-at this time, entrepreneurship becomes inevitable choice.

You must not escape from your genes, but always be aware that it may be your burden-the perceptible or imperceptible effects of past experience on you. I dare not say to discover the problem in time, but in the process of entrepreneurship there must be a string in my heart, knowing what might mislead me. As an entrepreneur, I often tell myself: do not follow the inherent experience, otherwise you will die in your past achievements.

Two. " It's important not to do anything.

When you are in a big business, your decision is "what" is enough, but when you do an entrepreneurial business, more decisions are "nothing". We went through a lot of fork, including Directional fork. Many roads are tempting, look good, once you try, open the plate is too big, may cause your energy dispersion and waste of resources, you do not have so much energy to do the main goal.

In the grand and founder as a professional manager, I was wrapped in the atmosphere of a large company, others look at me are looking up. At that time out of their own discomfort, people will feel that I am a grand executive, I seem to feel the identity here. I will be affected by this thing: I represent the grand. Come out and feel indifferent. When you leave a big stage, you Are you.

Three. Recognize that "entrepreneurship is a one-way road"

Liu founder (formerly Nvidia China sales Director)

Many people will worry about entrepreneurship a few years later, the enterprise developed to a certain scale, their management ability to keep up. I do not have this concern, I have been in large companies have been formal enterprise management training, but also hands-on experience how to manage a relatively large enterprise.

However, these experiences are not very useful when an entrepreneur is just starting out. At the beginning, several people started from scratch, relying on the way of brotherhood and soil eight. Just start to think of entrepreneurship, even if not successful, after a few years to find a big company to do professional managers, not to let their own bridges. When you really come out, you will find that entrepreneurship is a one-way street.

Four. Be responsible for your own decisions

Chen Wei on the Road founder (formerly Grand Operation Platform director)

What executives and founders have to face is different. Do the executive, the boss to draw the pie, to the direction, we do the corresponding functional plate of the program formulation and implementation. To be an entrepreneur, no one can help you, the pie of their own painting, the direction of the target to find themselves, we have to take responsibility for their own decisions.

You come out to start a business, do things that others did not do, must be a very fast pace forward, must adjust the direction in a timely manner, and try not to let themselves run away for a variety of reasons. I now venture is also in accordance with this principle to make decisions, in the general direction of the premise of no problem, we want to run fast, rapid iteration.

Five. Let the team be willing to march together

Hu Zhensen founder (formerly IBM Northern Area Telecommunications director)

Big companies like to talk about global trends, how the U.S. market, how the European market, the entire Chinese market, analysis of these and then discuss the demand. I think the company is growing up, and for me there is no shortage of skills.

Some of the past experience to the new company is completely not working. Big company internal competition is completely wolf sex culture, you can't, outside a lot of people wait to come in, not an open door. But to start a business, frankly, it's not easy to find a good person. You want to knock him out? You have to teach him, take him, and make the team cohesive. The entrepreneurial team, like Liu Bei, carries on his back and wishes to take away all the people he can take with him. You want us to believe that we will have a good future, we are willing to work together in a revolutionary, long march.
