I don’t like symposiums in the company, 1 V 1 or business meetings are better if the problem is solved. The symposium is more like a ceremony, the company is very generous, and the employees are very sincere. However, most of the symposiums don’t solve real problems and don’t have critical information. Either don’t say it, or just mention a bunch and let the company solve it.
If the company has solved it, what are you going to do? Then if the company doesn’t solve it, what should the company do?
The company can pay you salary. What should I do if I encounter a problem? The three tips are as follows:
1. You are already a mature adult, learn to solve problems by yourself
For example, a leader who has a technical editing team said that he and his team members are not technically sensitive enough. To put it more bluntly, he does not do technology or research and development, and he does not understand many technical terms, concepts and trends. It’s hard to write good content.
Let’s make an analogy. If the leader of a R&D team complains that his technical ability is not good, and the programmer’s coding ability is poor, is it particularly unreasonable? Shouldn’t these be your responsibilities?
Technical editing is similar. Each position has its own competency model, and those who have the ability will occupy it. Engineers are of course technical ability and engineering ability, and technical editors are of course writing ability and ability to understand and judge technology. If you already feel that your abilities are not enough, firstly, you should improve these abilities as soon as possible, and secondly, you should eliminate those who have unqualified abilities and find people who can supplement these abilities.
In addition, whether it is a team or an individual, there is no shortcut to improve your ability, and you are also indispensable to the time spent on the road that others have traveled. Don’t think of shortcuts, do stupid work, God favors stupid people.
Companies need people who can ask questions and people who can solve them. The most important are those who asked the problem and solved it.
2. Insufficient resources are the norm
Startups and growing companies are always doing things with a slight or even extreme scarcity of resources that allow us to focus on the things that matter most. Recommend a book called “Getting Real”, a booklet about Internet entrepreneurship produced by the 37signals team. They also later released a book called “Restart”, which you may have heard of. 37signals advocates doing big things with small teams. In most cases, resources are insufficient, lack of funds, lack of experience, and lack of people. You must move forward under these constraints and find solutions and innovative methods:
“Inadequate” forces us to use innovative solutions. We reduce the cost of change by building fewer and better software features. We give people roughly enough traits to solve unique problems in their own way—so we’re no longer a hindrance.
Jet lag and spatial distance allow us to communicate more effectively. Due to telecommuting, our communications are almost invariably via IM software and e-mail, which forces us to get to the point quickly and directly.
Turn constraints into advantages, and let scarcity bring innovation. Isn’t there an old saying, lazy people change the world. How can lazy people change the world, use innovative methods to improve efficiency and resist constraints.
Otherwise, you will find that the norm for teams to solve problems is to recruit people to recruit people.
3. Ask for help
Shouldn’t all problems be solved by themselves? of course not. Just like when a programmer encounters a bug, of course, try to solve it by yourself first. If it exceeds the scope of ability and time limit, you must ask others for help as soon as possible. The best way is to ask your superior, your problem may not be a problem with him. Don’t waste days trying to find answers when your seniors and buddies are right next to you and it’s entirely possible that he can help you.
Of course, the frequency of asking for help should be limited. If you are seeking help from your superiors 20 days a month, why would he hire you? A threshold can be set, such as a maximum of several times per month. If you still can’t solve the problem, either your ability is insufficient, or you really need to improve yourself in your spare time.
I made a paid knowledge planet, and let time tell , and it has gathered more than 6,500 users so far.
At present, the content structure of this knowledge product is very rich, with a total of five columns: learning from books (read 52 books), kite runners (50 expert insights), Lao Chi’s entrepreneurship weekly diary, and Xiao Gai’s entrepreneurship follow-up Thinking (real entrepreneurial process and lessons learned), practice on things (200 practical experiences). There are also hundreds of Q&A and user co-created content , I believe there will always be content that suits you. 365 days, you too can grow together.
