Chapter 37 8. Selected Quotations of Webster's Management Science

Businesses are big or small, and so are bosses. Small bosses do things, medium bosses make markets, and big bosses make moves. Small bosses do things: Small bosses may not be in small companies, and small companies may not be big. Some bosses have turned their companies into giant dinosaurs, but they are still obsessed with intensive cultivation. The little boss just refers to a kind of life attitude of the boss, and there is no distinction between praise and criticism.This kind of boss has a down-to-earth style, keeps a low profile, and does not make much publicity. Many bosses with science and engineering backgrounds are like this.They demand that there is no difference between themselves and others, life is limited, time is like an arrow, do a good job in the job at hand, do a good job in a company, it doesn't matter if it is big or not, in short, it is worthy of going through the world.

When working under a small boss, avoid loud noises, avoid impetuousness, do every job assigned by the boss well, and never shout slogans in vain. Zhong Boss makes a market: Zhong Boss pays attention to management, likes to take risks to try new theories and new knowledge, and also likes to use his own company as an experiment. If it succeeds, it’s good;Win without arrogance, lose without discouragement, and always maintain a strong fighting spirit. Boss Zhong likes to brainstorm ideas. Any company controlled by Boss Zhong holds meetings non-stop from morning to night, and Boss Zhong’s thinking jumps greatly. One thing has no clue, and another project has already entered the implementation stage. The effect Good or bad, the key is to have the courage to try, like the slogan "An employee who does not make mistakes is not a good employee", and only the middle boss can shout it, but you must not believe it. You might as well follow the boss and shout the slogan, but do things Still need to be extremely cautious, only solid performance is what the middle boss likes most.

The big boss makes a show: the youngest big boss dares to carry a leather bag to undertake engineering projects of multinational companies; the largest big boss likes to be unconventional, and claims to be responsible for the development of human civilization, setting standards for the industry and making rules for the game .Bosses of this type are mostly people who have an overview of the overall situation. They have an open vision and do not fight for the gains and losses of a city or a pool. The progress of a project is not what the big boss cares about. What is important is the value of the project.Once the big boss of a small company succeeds, he is a hero in the business era. Once he fails, he can only walk around with a purse in his arms.

To follow the big boss, you need to have a broad vision and a mind that can assist the big boss. Pay attention to the big and let go of the small when doing projects. The momentum of publicity is more important than the actual content. The atmosphere of hype is higher than the value of the project. Pay attention to citing new concepts and thinking , new methods, endowing the project with brand-new packaging and the most popular management concepts.Working under such a boss is the most avoidable rigidity and inflexibility. The big boss likes a luxurious office environment, and the workplace is spacious and elegant.Zhong Boss is always running between customers non-stop, constantly promoting his own ideas.The little boss refused to leave the workshop even a step away, and he didn't even reserve seats for customers in his office.

Small bosses make products. Each small boss is an elite figure in the industry. He strives for excellence in production technology and requires a steady and low-key corporate management. Boss Zhong works on projects, and likes to jump between different industries, challenge the limits of his own thinking, and likes to venture into unfamiliar fields and gain the glory of success. What the big boss is doing is resources, and he attaches the most importance to the value-added and services of intangible assets. His thinking will not be influenced by the real environment, and he can gain insight into the market situation and trend under the macroeconomic environment.

Different employees are suitable for different bosses. Employees with a down-to-earth style are most suitable to follow the small boss and grow together with the small boss.Employees with quick thinking are the most suitable for following the middle boss, and many new items are enough to meet your fun needs.Employees who are good at strategy are most suitable to follow the big boss, and every strategy can give you enough sense of accomplishment. Employees with a down-to-earth style follow their small bosses and are expected to be promoted to executive positions in time.Quick-thinking employees follow the small boss and can stand on their own and get the position of supervisor.Strategic employees are useless against small bosses.

Under the leadership of the middle boss, the quickest-thinking employees are the easiest to get promotion opportunities.Employees with a down-to-earth style can still stand a chance of becoming executives on their own.Employees who are good at strategy will become partners of middle bosses rather than subordinates. Under the leadership of a big boss, strategic employees will gain unprecedented room for development, quick-thinking employees are the most unstable, and down-to-earth employees may not have opportunities for promotion, but they are not in danger of losing their jobs.
