Chapter 23 Chapter 20 Two Colleagues

The next day, Li Wenhua saw Lala and invited her to sit in his office.After Lala sat down, he looked at Lala and smiled, but didn't speak. Lala felt uncomfortable, and said, "Wenhua, what are you doing? Smile at me so meaningfully." Li Wenhua said: "The boss is being forced into a headache by you." Lala said shyly, "Where is it?" Li Wenhua said sincerely: "Lala, I admire you very much. You have this drive and you can succeed." When he said this, Lala was a little embarrassed, and she said modestly: "I'm just making a living." Li Wenhua got to the point: "Wang Hong and I would like to treat you to dinner at noon."

Wang Hong and Li Wenhua are at the same level, and they are the salary and benefit managers under Liszt. There are four manager positions under Liszt, a recruitment manager, a salary manager, and an administrative manager. In addition, there is a manager in charge of training and performance management. For the time being, there are also vacancies and no suitable candidates have been recruited. Lala said with a smile: "That's great. What a good day today, there is such a good thing." Li Wenhua said: "Hi! In fact, the two of us have always wanted to invite you to dinner together. Previously, either Wang Hong was busy with a project or I was on a business trip, and you were even busier. So it's not that we haven't found a suitable opportunity for the three of us to get together. together."

At noon that day, the three of them ate Sichuan cuisine at "South Beauty", and Lala thought the dish Wang Hong ordered was very delicious.Wang Hong, who had just returned from a business trip in Japan, put on a big brother posture, and spoke a few words of concern to Lala in a non-painful and friendly manner. This Wang Hong is from Chengdu. He came to Shanghai after studying in university. When he was young, he was unsmiling. After graduation, he married a middle school classmate who also went to Shanghai to study in university. There is no romance in Wang Hong’s marriage, but he is very satisfied with his wife. He belongs to the kind of people with a relatively high life happiness index. He is not interested in romance. He believes in numbers and things that can be measured by numbers.

Wang Hong was born plump and plump, because he spends all day in the dense numbers in the EXCEL table. Like all salary managers, he is myopic and wears a pair of 500-degree myopia glasses. He is a typical foreign company C&B (salary manager) Benefits) manager whose forte is numbers analysis.On the one hand, his skills are very good, but on the other hand, his main criterion for judging people or things is numbers, which is a bit unreasonable.His age was about the same as Li Wenhua's, both thirty-five or sixteen years old, but his personality was completely different from Li Wenhua's.

Some departments in the company complained in private that Wang Hong was dull. Once someone got annoyed and complained to Liszt, saying that he had difficulty communicating with Wang Hong. But Wang Hong's interpersonal relationship is not particularly bad, because he has no bad intentions, and when he opposes or agrees with something, it is usually based on his figures, and there is no other reason. As a manager in his mid-thirties, although Wang Hong is somewhat rigid, he still understands the importance of communication.In fact, the lack of this aspect not only hindered his further development in official career, but even caused him to stumble in his career.

After learning from the pain, after Wang Hong was recruited into DB by Liszt two years ago, he set two rules for himself: first, his strength is technology; second, even if communication is still his weakness, at any time, he must pay attention to Maintain good communication with Liszt, and negligently communicate with any aspect, and you must not neglect communication with Liszt. This has proven to be a successful strategy: First, human energy is limited, when your energy is spent on certain aspects, it means that you give up other aspects at the same time.Rather than spending a lot of energy on transforming weaknesses into strengths, it is better to focus on developing strengths, which will have a higher input-output ratio.Simply put, people should "develop their strengths and avoid their weaknesses."

Second, people's attention is limited. Since we can't cover everything, we must ensure that we don't ignore the key points.Whether each person's performance is qualified and whether his ability is excellent or not, 80% or more of the conclusions are made by his direct supervisor.Even if people all over the world say hello, if your direct supervisor thinks you have a problem, you probably have a problem.In a word, you have to "keep the key points". Under the above-mentioned guidelines, Wang Hong gave himself a very clear career position: he can’t hold a higher position, and he doesn’t want to do other functions in HR that require frequent dealings with people, so he will do his job honestly. The salary manager, dealing with digital analysis, eats technical food.

Wang Hong's mentality is very much to Liszt's appetite, and he needs a salary manager who is capable and content with his job.And Wang Hong also repaid Liszt's kindness with loyalty. The two cooperated very tacitly: what Wang Hong could do well and what he couldn't do, Liszt was as clear as a mirror in his heart, and he could always grasp it well in advance; and what Liszt cared most about, Wang Hong also understood it, and absolutely guaranteed to do it well. Wang Hong had heard a little bit about the story of harassing the palace before, but in his rigid thinking, this is definitely not a professional practice that conforms to the process.If such a story can have a successful ending, Wang Hong thinks it should not be called a "story", but a "legend".

He even consulted the latest survey data from authoritative consulting firms HEWITT and MERCER to understand the average seniority of administrative managers in the market.He saw that among the 15 samples taken in the Shanghai market, the average data of the seniority of the administrative managers of the multinational companies are as follows: the age is older than 40 years old, the tenure of this post is about five years, the tenure of this function is about ten years, the total number of jobs The seniority is about twenty years. Therefore, he believes that Lala needs to work in her current position for at least three years before she can be considered for promotion, because DB's requirements for administrative managers should at least not be lower than the market average.

I don't know whether he forgot or ignored it. After he checked the relevant data on the number of years, he didn't check the information on the typical related responsibilities.That is, he ignored what Lara would do and what key jobs he had done. When Li Wenhua tactfully told Wang Hong the possibility of Lala's promotion, Wang Hong neither believed nor took it seriously.He felt that if this was the case, it would be too cheap for Lala.
