The management motto of the Facebook product design Director

This digest is translated from a manager's manifesto (a manager's manifesto) written by Julie Zhuo, the Facebook product design director. She has been involved in many of Facebook's project development and has worked with Dave Morin, who later became the Path founder. In this article, she shares her experience in managing the product design team.

10. You have no way to do everything. Close your eyes and lean backwards to learn to trust.

9. There must be some more effective way to handle what you're doing. As for what? Then think again on the way home every day.

8. Do not say anything that does not contribute to the present discussion, your voice is not melodious enough to be heard absolutely.

7. Always remember that you have to look at the whole picture before you make a decision.

6. Denying others is as easy as switching switches. But you'd better fight the urge, because you've done something stupid. You make bad decisions, then you learn and grow, and so do others.

5. Find out who is always relying on you and what you want to do to help them and make them self-reliant. Maybe you think it's important to be a market-cornered salmon supplier, but if everyone in town learns to fish, it frees you up to do something else. Like learning to grow wheat, or how to tame those cute little wolves.

4. Sweep the floor, clean the table, turn off the lights. Where there is a loophole to fill up-even if it is trivial, no one will notice. You have to do these things to benefit your products, your company, and all the amazing and magical things your team has built together.

3. The best decisions are not the same as the process of ensuring that more optimal decisions are made.

2. As you have often commented, say thank you and encourage words.

1. The most important thing is: always remove obstacles. Don't let your stupid, childish ego hinder your team's progress by just playing with your fingers and looking out the window.

This is my own creed, and may be biased by my work (Management Designer), the company I serve (Facebook), and the imprint that I have been left by many talented people. I am not asking to be done every day, but these are the voices that greet me every morning, the whispers that linger in my ear every night, the hazy outlines of my occasional glimpse and dazzling vision. This is my vision, my manifesto.
