Xiao Ming sent me a divine comedy called "Feeling Hollow", and then began to vomit: "Alas, young people nowadays are so delicate that they always feel hollow. I think, when I started my business, I was the boss during the day and slept on the floor at night, but I didn't cry every day. On the contrary, the more I work, the more energetic I feel ... Hey, Lao Zhang, didn't your employees forward it? " I said I didn't notice. Xiao Ming teased me and said, "Are your employees shielding you? The employees in our company are strict, and they are forwarded one after another. There are even people @ me. "

I listened to this divine comedy carefully, and the lyrics are as follows: Boss, it's hard to work overtime every day. Do you have no family or life? Can you put away the craftsman's feelings and pies and give me back my off-duty time?

Maybe my employees blocked me when I forwarded it, maybe I was overwhelmed by too many messages, or maybe the environment of our company is not bad (laughs). Either way, I think it is good to keep up with the pace of young people and know what they think, play and like. There is really no need to overreact, and there is nothing to worry about and complain about.

As the leader of the company, I think the circle of friends and word of mouth of employees are valuable resources of the company, but I don't think they belong to the company. Friends circle is employees' private space. Respect the other party's right to publish anything, and don't interfere in the life of employees. Moreover, this is just a normal phenomenon in the workplace. There is a saying that "no matter how good a marriage is, there will be 200 divorce thoughts and 50 impulses to strangle each other in this life", and the same is true for enterprises. Even the most loyal employees, employees who have the highest recognition of corporate values, have thought about "I quit" countless times or have the impulse to strangle their bosses and bosses.

Besides, if I were Xiao Ming, I think it would be a good thing. The existence of this phenomenon proves that your corporate culture is open, inclusive and allows employees to express themselves freely. This cultural atmosphere may be particularly important for the post-80s and post-90s generation.

There is one of the most intuitive examples: Fu, a swimmer who made a hit in the recent Olympic Games, won a lot of praise and love because of his outspoken answer that he didn't play by common sense, although he didn't win the gold medal. Especially when we are used to the standard questions from some reporters and the official answers from many athletes, Fu's spirit of self-affirmation, self-appreciation, no affectation, no arrogance and no sadness makes sports return to sports particularly real, lovely and valuable.

For many people in the 1960s and 1970s, this spontaneous self-expression was a strange experience. Once we were educated and dedicated, our culture suppressed our inner feelings and nature, and everyone needed to wear a uniform mask to adapt to slogans and initiatives that went against our hearts. Then, in front of China people who have been depressed for a long time, Fu's humor and frankness suddenly appeared, and suddenly hearing such an exaggerated and powerful expression of "feeling that the body has been hollowed out" is tantamount to giving a dose of stimulant to the boring life. Openness, tolerance and advocating free expression are a popular new aesthetic and a new direction of corporate culture in the new workplace environment.

So, if I see my employees forwarding this divine comedy or article, my attitude is:

The first is to allow it to exist and happen, don't blx, don't overreact, it's no big deal.

Second, we should respect human nature and discover the meaning of things.

Catholicism believes that people have seven deadly sins, one of which is "laziness". It is the instinct of all animals to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. We just don't like work by nature. Our nature is to long for comfort and avoid pain. The consequence of experiencing pain is "feeling hollowed out". Pulling yourself out of bed is very painful to work, living in the subway north is very painful, and running to lose weight is also very painful ... since it is painful, why do these things? Because the meaning behind all this pain is far greater than the pain itself. Because we want to survive, because we want to stay in Beijing, because we want to change ourselves. ...

When the meaning of something is greater than the pain, we will do it. We call it "painful and happy". Some people say that it doesn't hurt if it makes sense. Not right! Meaningful things also hurt. Meaningful things will also accompany us to fight the other side of our humanity. The pain we feel and the difficulties we should overcome will not be reduced at all. The difference is that this meaning will make you feel that your efforts and pain are worth it.

Third, take people as a mirror and save the country by curves.

This kind of expression, which is easy to cause widespread cognition and * * * *, is actually a subject that we should study in management, because it represents the concept and sense of identity of most people. As managers, we should allow the release of human nature and the free expression of employees, because repression can't solve the problem. Managers should take people as a mirror, on the basis of insight into human nature, take advantage of the situation and explore how to make employees more active. How to make them have a more relaxed atmosphere? Isn't it just overtime? Don't you just wear a mask? I don't think so. Usually I take the curve to save the country and solve the problem from the side:

■? Don't let your employees work for you, let them work for their dreams.

When I am worried that my employee will leave me, I will choose to give him a more meaningful and valuable job, let him do what he likes, raise his salary and solve the problem from a positive perspective. Xiao Ming said that when he started his business, he was "a boss during the day and slept on the floor at night". He felt full of energy because he was working for his dreams, not for others. The significance behind his entrepreneurship far exceeded the pain he felt at that time.

■? Let employees see their influence and value.

Help others with your professional skills, and you will feel happy; You will feel happy when your work is valuable to others. Therefore, take employees to listen to the voice of customers and let them see the value they bring. Take him to see the status of peers, take him to see other corporate cultures, and let him compare. It turns out that we are not bad.

In employee management, all systems and measures are just means, and the most important thing is to return to: what can bring real happiness to employees! The most important thing is to help employees find something meaningful to them besides money.
