Han Fei Zi teaches you how to employ

To know people and to employ them is one of the major skills required by every Machiavellian. Han Fei's son as a school, in their own classic "Han Fei zi" in the "employment" chapter, the detailed expression of the wisdom of the legalists employing.

There are two prerequisites for the family:

One is Zhong June, meaning that leaders are not wise men, nor mediocrity, but ordinary people. The ability to identify talent, the ability to use talent in general, and easy to integrate into the mood.

One is right and wrong, meaning that, with the subordinates are not great wisdom, the average person has emotions ordinary people just. All love to lazy, speculative.

In fact, most of the company's bosses and employees are in this state.

So legalism's wisdom is very useful.

Han Fei Zi wrote three principles of employing legalism

1. Clear Responsibilities

The so-called responsibility is clear, that is, the position and responsibility of the clear, what power, what to do, are stipulated clearly, so that will not be wrangling, will not be inefficient, there will be no one responsible. Most of the enterprises are responsible for a group of people, the surface of the use of collective wisdom, in fact, when the accident, each other, the collective responsibility is no one responsible. Clear responsibility, which is the basis of rewards and punishments.

2, rewards and punishments are operable

If the incentive set is too high, many people are not rewarded, the reward is to the meaning of motivation.

If the punishment is set too low, many people are liable to be punished, such punishment loses deterrent force.

The prize is not an end, but a guide to conduct, and punishment is not an end in order to keep them from violating the rules.

So the operability of rewards and punishments, this can be used correctly to play an effect, this is the basis for rewards and punishments.

3. Strictly act according to law

Han Fei-tzu said, "There is no joy and retribution," meaning that the punishment is not according to their own preferences, but because of the rules.

Otherwise do not follow the rules, but in accordance with the joy of anger, then up and down will be grudges. Gradually will alienation, thus until the collapse.

According to the regulations there will be no grudge, there will be no privacy, only in this way, subordinates to their own behavior can adjust themselves.

According to these three principles to establish a correct employment relationship, this can let the leader gradually out of the emotional fetters, so that the organization gradually rational, and thus easy to control. Legalists of the Machiavellian wisdom is indeed profound, and gradually to share.
