Good team is the guarantee of successful business

From last year to this year, I witnessed the dissolution of a team. At present, I work in a start-up company, is also a member of this team. First of all, to introduce the company, so that we can more clearly understand the incident happened.

The company's original project is to do foreign trade inventory, that is, the use of low-cost to domestic factories to acquire inventory of products, and then resold to foreign buyers, in order to earn the middle price difference. Insiders must know that the industry will come to an end sooner or later. First, the purchase of inventory products while looking for foreign customers, it is easy to lead customers to find, the procurement of inventory products have been the factory's own processing; second, there is no autonomy, only in accordance with the products have been formed to find foreign customers, or in accordance with customer demand to the factory procurement; third, the purchase price of inventory is generally half the ex-factory prices , which led to the closure of some factories, and did not form a virtuous circle.

Then the boss Jony began to transform the service industry, and started to form a new project team, I was at this time to join the new project team. New Project site on Ant is a professional website that is a third-party agency sourcing cross-border Trade service platform. Our goal is through this platform to a number of good Chinese manufacturing and the creation of China to launch, out of the country, into the world, in fact, China has a lot of good factories and manufacturers, just because of foreign trade in the information is extremely unequal , leading to foreign trade has been difficult to do, good manufacturers and manufacturers can not push out.

The old project is still underway, because the new project needs financial support, but did not expect the old project at the end of 2013, seven people resigned collectively, these seven people have been in the company for more than a year, this is a transformation of the start-up company is a devastating blow. Still remember that day is Christmas Eve, Jony drunk wine, in front of us howling cry, the first time to see a iron clatter of entrepreneurial man tears, really bad, but calm down analysis, this is not without results.

The boss's blueprint for the future may not seem like it to employees.

Most of the time, Jony will give us a passionate picture of the future, when his passion, his eyes shining, like a speaker, his project confidence, and believe that absolutely perfect trap.

But it may not be that much of an employee, and I remember having a lunch at a restaurant with an old project employee and sitting with them. Everyone is chatting together, do not listen to not know, a listen to frighten, all is negative emotion.

This said the boss again in sensational, that said the boss in castles, finally everyone points to me. A girl asked: "B, you worked overtime yesterday, what time did you go back?" I smiled and replied: "About 12 o'clock in the evening." "A:" Ah, ignore him, when to go back, overtime can not afford, will be endless, I do not care so much, after work to go. I nodded with a smile and said nothing.

Through this meal chat time, I found an employee if the negative emotions, it is very easy to infect, spit on each other for a long time, you will accept, and more and more believe. Positive emotions can play a role in stimulating can make a team to maintain the passion and struggle, negative emotions, and even faster, it makes people powerless, complaining, lifeless, no morale, of course, these are difficult to be found by the boss, because this sentiment is generally in the private spread, the boss will still be good appearance.

As a boss, if you find that this emotion is contagious, that the team has been terminally ill, this is a potential danger, the bosses are often impossible. If it does, it will be a devastating blow, such as a collective resignation, and team morale and job enthusiasm will be greatly weakened, even if they do not resign collectively.

Money is not everything, but no money.

There is also a need to introduce, the company's new project staff and old project staff do not work in an office, so the old project staff self-contained, often in that company whispering, this is called the Clique, formed a small group.

Because the company transformation, money suddenly turnover does not open, so the boss late hair three days wages, this is equivalent to a fuse, an instant outbreak, seven people collectively resign, suddenly let the boss unprepared. This leads directly to the difficulties behind the transition, the lack of personnel, capital chain break, the new project is difficult, almost halfway aborted.

Late wage this matter may not lead to the root cause of collective resignation, but is definitely a direct cause, directly triggered the staff of the deep heart latent long time negative emotions, so long accumulated complaints found a breakthrough. Then after fermentation, dissemination, brewing, it contributed to the formation of the collective resignation time.

Many times, we will say that money is not omnipotent, but no money is absolutely impossible. Behind Jony has been asking himself, why does the group resign? Why would everyone leave him? And he can be familiar with how to say once to a how good, how to cultivate B, how to help C's family tide over the difficulties and so on, but the staff fancy is not these, once the staff's consciousness does not agree with you this boss, There is no feeling about this company, and the wages can not be guaranteed, leaving is a matter of sooner or later.

There is a sentence is: The past you have thousands of good million kinds of good, once a little bad, all the good is negative, because the good will always be forgotten, the most memorable is not good.

Last but not least: new projects are not understood

Company transformation, a lot of times the most fatal, the old employees have been familiar with the old business, and even formed a fixed thinking, the subconscious cognizance of things, often rely on the external indoctrination is difficult to change.

The new project started, many old employees can not understand, can not understand will not accept, so that the heart has a resistance, even if these people do not resign, the development of new projects is also harmful.

Although Jony each meeting to elaborate on every aspect and prospect of the project, everyone is silently listening, completely without their own opinions, many people are expected to listen to the confused, do not know how to do, of course, do not understand how to start, this will be the boss to arrange, arranged after the discovery did not achieve the desired effect , because can not understand this project, of course, can not give play to people's initiative, but the machinery to do the work arranged, there is no goal to say, finally the boss anxious like a hot cat, employees or a blank face.

There is a saying that finding the right partner is like looking for a girlfriend. The first person to identify with your project, and can understand your project, and then he is willing to work with you, willing to burn his bridges and go all out.

Many entrepreneurs first consider to find a person with the ability to experience, in fact, experience is not the most important, many times, experience will be the factor of failure, because experience tends to let people form a fixed thinking, can not jump out of their previous experience of the circle. What is entrepreneurship? is to stones, no case can be used for reference.

Therefore, entrepreneurial although easy, find the right partner is not easy, and the line and cherish it!
