"Macho Man" Wu Qi's Way of Team Motivation
Recently, when I read Wu Qishi, a famous minister in the Warring States Period, I found that this super macho man, who was revered by later generations as the "Asian sage" in China's military field (second only to Sun Wu), was far from being dismissive by politicians and military strategists. In my opinion, he is at least a top team motivation expert.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Hearing this, some people may quit immediately. As the saying goes, "This is a mule or a horse, and we can take it out for a walk"-although our Wu is neither a mule nor a horse, his team motivation level is sincere and childlike.

Wu Mengren's team motivation has two basic principles: setting an example and respecting human nature. Please note that this is not a slogan. Historical records. "Biography of Wuqi" once recorded that although Wuqi was a military commander, he always insisted on eating and drinking with the soldiers at the bottom and treating them like his own brothers. He sleeps without mats, marches without chariots and horses, and carries his own dry food. So all his subordinates love him very much and are willing to work for him.

There is a convincing story about this. It is said that once, one of Wu's soldiers got a sore. After Wu knew it, without saying anything, he personally sucked pus from the soldiers with his mouth. Later, this incident was known by the soldier's mother, and she burst into tears at once. The people next to her were puzzled and asked her, "Your son is just an ordinary soldier. Now the general sucks pus for him himself. You should be happy, but how can you feel sad? " The sad mother wiped her tears and replied, "That's not true. You don't know, General Wu once sucked pus for my husband. As a result, the child's father was so grateful that he always rushed to the front when he started fighting, so he died soon. Now, the general sucks pus for my son again, and I don't know where he will die. " From this point of view, Wu's humanized management has enabled soldiers to work for him voluntarily. This skill alone makes people want to refuse.

Not only that, Wu is also full of tricks and creativity in the implementation skills of team motivation.

As we all know, the battle between Yin and Jin is one of the representative works of Wuqi's "career". Behind this brilliant victory, his perfect team incentive mechanism and strategy also played a vital role.

As early as a few years before the war between the two sides, in order to stimulate the morale of the army, Wu introduced a set of highly layered incentive models: he invited the monarch to personally hold a celebration banquet, and then arranged the seating according to the soldiers' previous performance assessment (military merit)-let the meritorious person sit in the front row, use expensive tableware made of gold and silver, and all three animals in the food; The person who made the second contribution sat in the middle row, the expensive tableware was reduced appropriately, and the richness of food was also simplified appropriately; Those who have no military skills sit in the back row, not only using ordinary tableware, but also not seeing any oil stars in the food. These people can only look at the delicious roast suckling pig in the front row and drool (really cruel). After the banquet, Wu Qi personally rewarded the families of the heroes outside the door with great fanfare (really embarrassing). For the families of the fallen soldiers, he also arranges condolence activities every year-for example, sending a quilt, bringing two boxes of melatonin, holding the hands of the martyrs' parents and sobbing: old man, thank you for training a good son for the motherland ... That kind of emotional scene can be directly referred to Qiong Yao's TV series.

In this way, three years later, finally, Qin Jun, who owed the most, took the initiative to come and find him dead.

At that time, although there were only more than 50,000 people stationed in Wei Jun, Qin Jun had a total of 500,000 troops. Interestingly, after hearing the news of Qin Jun's invasion, most of Wei Jun were not afraid, but their eyes lit up with excitement: Wow, man, I also had a chance to win the position of "sitting in the front row and eating suckling pigs"! So, they not only put on their armor on their own initiative, but also looked at Wuqi with an impatient expression all day: Boss, give an order quickly!

The result of such a war can be imagined. Unlucky Qin Jun found out after he set foot on the battlefield that what they met was not a group of people, but a group of wolves! With a scream, these people were all ten-for-one, and soon Qin Jun, who was famous for his neat lineup, was scattered. Although during this period, Qin Jun has repeatedly assembled troops to organize attacks, but in the face of this group of crazy people like stimulants, they are always on the verge of collapse, and finally can only end in defeat. ...

From this battle, we can see the essence of "Wu Team Incentive Method". At the same time, Wu Qi's story also teaches us that there is no end to the improvement effect from team motivation to the overall HR management of the enterprise. Therefore, don't rush to give him a conclusion before realizing a model to its limit. There is always room for improvement in management. The question is whether there is a "macho man" who can bring about change.
