During the Warring States Period, Qin Xiaogong, king of Qin, was determined to reform and recruit talents. Shang Yang entered Qin State from Wei State, and put forward a set of reform and innovation development strategies, such as abandoning ore fields, emphasizing agriculture and mulberry, rewarding meritorious military service, implementing unified quantity and establishing county system, which won his trust and made him become a regular and began to reform. After Shang Yang's political reform, Qin's economy developed, and the fighting capacity of the army continued to strengthen, and it developed into the most prosperous feudal country at the end of the Warring States Period. The success of Shang Yang's political reform is the key to the rise of Qin State: respecting the sages and the law, and respecting the heart and soul.
1, the theory of respecting the virtuous: If you can help Qin to become strong, you can enjoy Qin with you.
Since Mu Ming became emperor, Qin's national strength has gradually weakened, and he has often been bullied by Wei, who dominates the country. Qin has always been martial and neglected the way of governing the country, but there are many princes and powerful countries around it. Qin Xiaogong, the new monarch of Qin, began to realize that belligerence would undoubtedly ruin the country's future, so he issued a decree to recruit talents to revive the hegemony of Qin. One of them said: "Those who can help Qin become strong will enjoy Qin with you." . As a result, scholars from all over the world have entered Qin, among which legalist scholar Shang Yang officially stepped onto the historical stage. Qin Xiaogong intends to pass the throne to Shang Yang before he dies. How great and bold it is!
Reading his order to recruit talents makes people pay tribute to each other: Qin Gong triumphed over Qu Liang, telling the whole world that Qin Zi Mu Gong dominates, the country is successful and the great cause can be expected. However, since then, all the vassal States have been wicked, and the emperors have been impetuous and simple. The political situation of the four generations has been chaotic, civil strife has been frequent, and foreign invasion has forced them to lose all of Hexi, and the imperial edict has changed hands. Qin Shihuang was isolated by a big country. Later, he acceded to the throne for revitalization and died after years of hard work. At this time, the country is weak and the people are poor. The nations are not as good as Qin, do not form an alliance with the alliance, and want to divide and destroy Qin and then quickly. The national humiliation and hatred are greater than this. My husband succeeded to the throne and he was deeply saddened by the national humiliation. Today, Liang Ming, the winner of the Canal, told the world: However, there are still people who can make a long-term plan and a strange plan to restore the hegemony of the State of Qin. They are senior officials, leading state affairs and sharing the State of Qin with my husband!
When an enterprise laments that there are no talents, it must understand that what it lacks is the mind and courage that can be shared with talents. If you dare to share wealth, dare to criticize yourself and dare to accept talents from all over the world, can you not get together? Ancient people like Qin Gong paid so much attention to talents, not to mention today. Look at the recruitment orders in Qin Gong, and think about the current enterprise recruitment. I can't help feeling ashamed. Especially after Qin announced the order of surrender, scholars from all over the country came to Qin one after another and attached great importance to it, but they did not blindly appoint it. Instead, they spent three months inspecting Qin at any cost, and then came up with a plan to create jobs.
2, * * * Mind: Jun is like a green hill, I am like a pine and cypress; Break into pieces and never lose.
Through the analysis of Shang Yang's "Nine Theories of Strengthening Qin", I hope to win the recognition of the reform of the Canal Beam: 1, wholeheartedly support the new backbone of the reform and occupy a pivotal position; 2. The legal system does not avoid the powerful, and the imperial clan breaks the law with Shu Ren; 3. The monarch must firmly believe in the minister of reform, and not be angered or alienated. Three difficulties are everywhere, that is, in today's enterprise management, many enterprise managers can't do it, and there will be one in many systems: general manager's special approval. However, Qu Liang should swear to Shang Yang that if you believe me, I will never fail you in my life. Shang Yang was greatly moved: Gong is like a green hill, I am like a pine and cypress, and I will never lose.
As the monarch of Qin State, unswervingly supporting Shang Yang's political reform is the basis for its success. Pine and cypress refer to Shang Yang. As a political reform consultant, he formulated a set of strategies for political reform and paid close attention to their implementation. It is precisely because of the close cooperation of "green hills, pines and cypresses" that the success of political reform and the prosperity of Qin State can be achieved. Up and down the same desire, mutual appreciation, and never lose each other-this is the spirit that enterprises lack today. Sun Tzu's art of war says that Tao brings people together, and a group can die and live with it without fear of danger. If both enterprises and employees can realize the relationship between Castle Peak and pine and cypress, why not?
3, * * * * soul theory: forever old Qin, * * * went to the national disaster together, the blood did not flow dry, no truce!
Old Qin, go back to my country and stop fighting until my blood runs dry! There is Daqin in the west, such as the rise of the Japanese aggressors, a hundred years of national hatred, and the sea is difficult to calm down! There is chaos in the world, why can Kangning and Qin Yourui compete with heroes! Qin Guoge, the so-called "Old Qin, * * * went to the national disaster." These eight words, whether in the most difficult moment or the most inspiring moment, whether on the battlefield or in Shan Ye, will make me respect every time they ring.
Whether they are ragged old Qin people or well-dressed clans, their expectations of the old Qin state are exciting.
Most enterprises have their own slogans, and how to reach the realm of Qin people is the focus of current enterprise thinking. A team must have a soul, so that it can penetrate into the hearts of employees. This soul is not a simple personal dream, but a dream shared by all. Of course, this soul is often excavated and embodied from the first commander.
4, respect for the law: the punishment is blunt and powerful, and the reward is not private.
Yang Yang reformed Qiang Qin to rule the country by law. Through the implementation of the "Nine Theories on Strengthening Qin", the poor and backward Qin State has become strong, both economically and militarily, especially in the realm where the concept of rule of law is deeply rooted in people's hearts and talents cannot be exchanged. In the process of reform implementation, there is no lack of blood. Shang Yang was not afraid of powerful people, and Qin Gong did not avoid relatives, which laid a solid foundation for the development of Qin. The commentary of the Warring States Policy on this matter is: "Governing the Qin Dynasty, enforcing laws and regulations, being impartial, upright and powerful, and not appreciating privacy, is like a prince. After the end of the year, the road will not be answered, the people will not take it, and the soldiers will be strong and the princes will be afraid. " Pursuing and perfecting the rule of law is the direction of enterprise management development. If the enterprise is not strong enough, the key lies in the spirit of rule of law, which leads to incomplete implementation of the system. Most enterprises lack strong implementation means and strong high-level support in the implementation process.
Shang Yang's political reform, in the final analysis, is a spirit of making great efforts to govern and putting career first. This road from weak to strong management deserves our deep thought and study. What enlightenment can Shang Yang's political reform give us?
First, from the perspective of organizational change.
As a famous and successful political and economic reform movement in history, Shang Yang's political reform made A Qin, a weak country, a poor country and a small country in the West, become a powerful empire, a rich country and a powerful country, which laid a solid foundation for Qin to unify the whole country in the future. However, organizational change is extremely difficult. Both countries and enterprises need to pay a great price. It is even more difficult to change something that has lasted for a hundred years and is deeply rooted. First, the leaders of the organization (king and chairman) should have a strong heart of change, be firm from beginning to end, push with an "iron fist", and go all out if the change is unsuccessful. Second, we should have a good general plan, strategy, change counselor and responsibility. Without a good way out and a change strategy, how can we change? Where can I change it? How many steps? Who will advise, who will promote change, and who will take on the heavy responsibility? The two are linked together. Choosing the right person and doing the right thing, without good talents, there will be no scientific methods adapted to local conditions, and there will be no powerful promoters. Just talk on paper, talk big, not put in place, landing, no good results and results. Therefore, the reform focuses on implementation, and the most difficult thing is implementation, because it involves the vital interests of many people and many interest groups, and it is a political contest and battle.
Second, from the middle and senior management level.
Is it important for top management or middle management? Traditionally, the top level of an enterprise is very important. Without the top level, the strategic planning of enterprise development, the integration of various resources and the coordination of relations cannot be formulated, but the latest view is that the middle level of an enterprise determines the success or failure of an enterprise. No matter how good the strategy and idea are, if there is no suitable person to implement and promote it, the strategy will become unrealistic and can only be a fantasy. The middle layer is a bridge connecting the upper layer and the grass roots, which plays a connecting role and is the backbone, reformer, executor and promoter of enterprise operation reform. Therefore, as the top management of an enterprise, one is to formulate a strategy to integrate resources, and the other is to select talents. Only by forming an invincible team can we win the battle of "change" Top management is not a perfect "all-rounder". Only by recruiting, selecting, employing and retaining people, putting the right people in the right position and integrating the right time, place and people can we create a great cause. From Qin Xiaogong to Wei Yang and his followers, we can think of this.
Third, from the perspective of management talents.
Everyone knows that enterprise competition is talent competition, so how to find and identify talents? How to find talents? How to attract talents? How to make good use of talents? Is an important topic.
In addition to determining the direction of enterprise development, finding talents is the top priority of enterprise leaders. Under the guidance of the old man, Qin Xiaogong jumped out of the limitation of Qin State, posted "Orders for Recruiting Talents" all over Shandong Province, paid a lot of money to recruit talents, opened a "national gate" and recruited talents. In identifying and assessing talents, the "wise men" spent three months in grass-roots counties, observing people's feelings, inspecting officials, putting forward their own strategies for governing the country, and arranging them to work in various departments according to the talents of scholars. For example, the current college graduates should start from the grassroots level, go to the grassroots level for internship, understand the situation of the enterprise, and then gradually promote and reuse. There can't be a good position waiting for you right away, they must be honed to take on the heavy responsibility. Another example is building a house, including enclosure, rafters and girders. , and the girder is the most rare talent, but also the most important talent, is the foundation and cornerstone of the enterprise. Find the pillar, give him a stage to implement his ambition and display his talents, and give full play to his talents to create more value for the enterprise.
Fourth, from the perspective of execution.
Shang Yang's reform is a good reader about the legal system construction of enterprises, and also a good material about execution. At present, the popularity of executive power reflects that many enterprises have low executive power and good strategies, plans and schemes, but they are not effectively implemented, which is greatly discounted in the implementation process. In the end, they can't do it, and they will "abort" when they encounter obstacles or opposition. So, first, they have a firm belief that what they have decided will be implemented without hesitation, and they will not give up halfway. Second, there are good systems and laws as a good guarantee, rewarding good followers, punishing offenders and "punishing evil and promoting good"; Third, both "princes and nobles" and "ordinary people" are treated equally, fair and just, and no one can be above the "law", including the makers, and they must be restricted and bound by the law. Violating the "high-voltage line" will be punished, so that they will never dare to do so again. The concept of the rule of law is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has become a good example of obeying the law.
Fifth, from the perspective of corporate rule of law.
In the past, enterprise management was mainly based on experience management, followed by scientific (institutional) management and "rule of law", and finally cultural management, that is, "autonomy". Rule by man (ruled), rule by law, rule by man (autonomy) and inaction. At the beginning, there were few people. When starting a business, people can run the country. But after a stage, the rule of law must be implemented, and people's behavior should be regulated by the system, not by people. It is necessary to form good habits, cultivate a good atmosphere and corporate culture, create a good order, encourage people to actively create achievements, and restrain those who are depressed, "lazy" and "speculative", so as to improve the efficiency of enterprises and gain profits.
Sixth, from the perspective of enterprise innovation and change.
The market environment is changing, consumers and customers are changing, competitors are changing, and the trend of world economic integration is a foregone conclusion. "The law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest", change is prosperous, unchanged is dead. If you stop and indulge in your achievements, you will only die. In the end, you will only be "eaten" by competitors and eliminated by the market. Therefore, only from management innovation, marketing innovation, process innovation to organizational structure itself, find a new breakthrough, constantly deny ourselves, establish a perfect management system, and "rule by law" instead of "rule by man" can the enterprise completely transform, embark on the road of change, become the leader of the industry, and be invincible forever.
What Shang Yang's reform taught us was the spirit of courage to change. Only by making "change" a way of thinking can enterprises be strong.
