Book Description...

Robert's rules of the content is very detailed, cover and contain everything, devoted the presiding chairman of the rules, the Conference Secretariat rule, of course a lot is about ordinary participants rules, there are different views put forward and the expression of the rules, the rules of debate, and under different conditions is very important, the voting rules.
Americans advocating freedom, but Americans treat the meeting is serious, the Americans will be less than. When it comes to meet the rules, the world no one better than American rules. They have a thick meeting rules -- "Robert rules" (Robert's Rules of Order). This is the one and only in the world. This written by Henry Martin Robert's "pocket manual of rules of order" (Pocket Manual of Rules of Order) published in 1876, many revised in 2000 tenth edition.
Logical principles behind some detail rules is very interesting. For example, some rules about the move, seconded, oppose and vote is in order to avoid disputes. In principle, now in America Congress, courts and the large and small meetings, in the standard condition, is not allowed. If a person had a different opinion on a motion, how to do? He must first think of is, in accordance with the rules Is it right? And his speech time and what time. Secondly, when he expressed their different views, to the meeting leader to speak, not to speak of opponents disagree. I go to the dialogue between different views of your opponent, is prohibited by the rules.
When the congressional debate is such. That is the debate, different views of the members in a specified time, the name is talking to the presiding speaker or chairman of the committee, not to their opponents to "challenge". His speech time delay time delay, or forced to speak, or when others speak kept interrupting, are not allowed.
Also in the America court, the parties law is not because of direct dialogue, a dialogue will undoubtedly become the quarrel quarrel, the court places. The rules, only lawyers and judges to dialogue, the jury was shown evidence; and the jury in accordance with the rules from first to last "dumb". Give tit for tat between different viewpoints and different interests, is in the rules, indirectly realized.
Technical details such as the rules of procedure, is very important for American such diversification and stressed the importance of individual freedom, equality of all countries, is a necessary condition for the realization of democracy. Otherwise, if the conflict is over, Each sticks to his own view., fighting is awfully, probably never unified resolution, what not to do. Even if can get feasible result, efficiency will be very low. Robert's rules of order, like a good design of the machine, can everything in good order and well arranged to get all opinions expressed, expansion impulse, use rules to suppress their inner interest to seek common ground while reserving differences, and then in accordance with the rules of voting. The design rules and operating procedures, both to protect the democracy, but also to protect the efficiency.
Robert's rules of order is based on the measure of human nature, carefully pondering and design. It is this grasp of detail to perfect the rules, to maximize the efficiency and fairness.
Therefore, a truly mature management, whether social management, economic management, must be on the set based on the accurate grasp of the details on the rules to run. Management to leave without rules and standards, and rules and standards is a perfect performance and exquisite.
We should start learning the "Robert rules" from where?
We say that a rule is the most important, is not to say that the rule is not important what. We can't specify what kind of rules is the best, is absolutely correct, but we must know that we want to pursue what principle, what kind of spirit, these principles and spirit is the essence and meaning of the rules of procedure.

The fundamental principle:
Balance: to protect the people and the rights of people, including the majority of the people, including the opinions of minority people, even every one, even those who did not attend the meeting of the people, and ultimately to protect all of these people is composed of the rights of the whole. It is for hundreds of years, people in constant pursuit of this balance, for the development of the rules of procedure today.
Constraints on the leader's power: all the members of the collective in accordance with the wishes of their elected leaders, and a part of the power to the leader, but at the same time, the collective must remain a part of power, make oneself still can directly control their affairs, avoid the leader's power is too large, to avoid the leader to impose its will on the collective on the head.
The principle of majority: most people will become the general will.
Debate principle: all decisions must be made only after full and free debate negotiations. Everyone has the right to the debate to persuade others to accept your will, even until this will become the general will.
Collective freedom of will: protection of collective self to the maximum extent, the protection to the greatest extent and balance the members of the collective rights, and then, in accordance with their own free will.
Specific principles:
In 1689 the British Parliament appeared a book called "parliament" (Lex Parliamentaria), a list of thirty-five at the time of study, has begun to show our today's many principles and rules of the clue. For example:
At the same time there can be only one issue: when a proposal was put forward, it is the only can discuss issues, you must fix it, or vote agreed to put it aside, then raises a proposal.
The opinion shall take turns been voice: the debate when someone asked to speak, the chairman should ask him who is either point of view, if their views and a spokesman on the contrary, he has the priority (such as some people asked to speak at the same time).
The chairman should invite the vote: must be positive, anti two party were voting, are indispensable. Can't Affirmative vote after vote, found that has reached the amount requested, you don't think it necessary to ask the opposition vote.
Against the assault: must stop itself from issues of personal attack. Prohibition of abuse or sarcastic language.
The current debate must focus on the pending issues: if the spokesman's remarks were independent and issues, and other members have been shown to dislike (such as BOO), speaker statement should be stopped.
Resolution of issues: if a decision problem can be divided into a plurality of small issues, but the members tend to have small problems were discussed, can offer will issue resolution. For example, on the resolution of an election two knights of the two issues were voted.
Change a into the resolution than by a new resolution requires greater efforts. This is in order to avoid the organizational decision making similar attendance changes of such factors may lead to instability.
During a conference, once the meeting of a question made the decision, the same issue, or essentially the same issue, can't talk again, unless there is a special case.
If an issue to do the processing of temporary (disposed of), and there is no final decision, so can't introduce any once through disturbs the meeting for discussion the position of the proposal, whether the new proposal on the original proposal have positive or negative influence.

Blogger Review 1...

When it comes to the meeting, we are so young people in this life really isno less open, some years can be said to be open every day, even is alwaysopen. The conference, what will all run. So there is a saying that "the old society more taxes, new society will be more". To American years, size units also changed several, Americans will be less, not less, and short. In the work of the meeting and so on, are often stood and said, the love talking tofriends is very unfavorable. But if Americans a very casual, not what the rules, that is completely mistaken. When it comes to meet the rules, the world no one better than American rules. They have so a thick meetingrules, "Robert rules" (Robert's Rules of Order), this is the one and only in the world.
The story goes back to 140 years ago, USA during the civil war, in the north of Beth Ford Massachusetts, a young army lieutenant Henry Martin Robert.That day, he was ordered to attend similar to "support the government and cherish the people" activities, chaired a meeting of local church. But thetopic of the meeting is very different. The results, one can imagine, the young age of only 25 officers, this will be in a complete mess. The debate at the meeting was awfully, the result is what resolution was going to reach.This will, open is not open, even worse than not.
This let Robert heart can not put down. Seriously over the graduated fromthe famous West Point USA soldier came up, he vowed, if not find a goodway to the meeting, he no longer meeting.
Seriously study the essence of human wisdom, he and most of the westernphilosophers, that is one of the most difficult by reason of the animal. When differences occur, no matter what is the basis of differences, or in a conflict of interest, or for belief, or for knowledge and experience is different, butonce the differences clearly open to the public, it is very difficult to within a few hours or days by language exchange to achieve a convincing a party.Differences of both sides to find common ground may not exist, but it needs a certain exchange mechanism, otherwise, a clear, the other party couldn't hear, in vain.
See this point, it is not difficult to understand the history of mankind, a smallmeeting "consistent", or is the power from top to bottom, forcing the congregation to accept, or is a party the other party forces overwhelmed.This "agreement" "resolution", in the eyes of Robert such American youth,or contrary to the idea of democracy, not allow different views of the peopleto express their opinions, is not fair. Robert wants to find a meeting rules.
He found, was not a ready-made meeting rules. Even though westernersfrom ancient Greek democracy era began meeting resolution, military and political affairs, however, it was with the original rough, a bit like us toDazhai type rated point, his voice is bigger than the truth effect. Althoughthe British Parliament has a long history of procedure, a set of rules of etiquette, although the house and Senate have America procedure, the court rules of court, but the people themselves are not part of the uniform rules for the meeting. Robert decided to write a.
He started on a variety of existing procedures, explore the program logic,why should such a requirement, if not specified, will produce what result.After several years of efforts, take the essence, the deficiency, he wrote arule. But to get the publishers there, nobody will believe a young officer can write code such rational method. Finally, a publisher gave him very harsh conditions and promised to help him Publishing: first let publishers to get back the cost is Robert's remuneration, in addition, Robert want to buy1000 for congressman, lawyer, Professor protagonist himself. He promised.
So, in February 19, 1876, pocket manual of rules of order of the "Henry Martin Robert" (Pocket Manual of Rules of Order) officially published,immediately sold. By 1915, with the rank of general Robert has published a revised version of the title, officially called "Robert rules". In the meantime,this book written by a young officer meeting rules sold about two million copies, becoming the standard manual American public meeting.
Robert died in 1923. Since then, his family and had participated in thepreparation of the people continued to revise the rules of procedure,technological advances make it suitable for changing. A fifth edition in 19701943, the seventh edition. The new Ninth Edition, published in 1990.
Such "rules of the game", implementation and operation for the concept of democracy, is often determines the success or failure of the importance of.Robert's rules of the content is very detailed, cover and contain everything,some specifically about the presiding chairman rules, some are aimed at meeting the Secretary of the rules, of course a lot is about ordinaryparticipants rules. Some rules are put forward and the expression of dissent, the debate on the rule, there are very important is under the different conditions of voting rules.
Logical principles behind some cumbersome rules is very interesting. For example, some rules about the move, seconded, oppose and vote is in order to avoid disputes. In principle, now in America Congress, courts and the large and small meetings, in the standard condition, is not allowed. If I have a different opinion on a motion, how to do? I must first think of is, in accordance with the rules Is it right? And my speech time, what time is.Second, when I say I, I is the meeting leader to speak, rather than to thedifferent views of the opponent. I go to the dialogue between different viewsof your opponent, is prohibited by the rules.
When the congressional debate is such, that debate, different views of themembers in a specified time, the name is talking to the presiding speaker orchairman of the committee, not to their opponents to "challenge". His speech time delay time delay, or forced to speak, or when others speakkept interrupting, is prohibited by the rules.
Also in the America court, the parties law is not because of direct dialogue,a dialogue will undoubtedly become the quarrel quarrel, the court places.The rules, only lawyers and judges to dialogue, the jury was shown the evidence, and the jury in accordance with the rules from first to last "dumb".Give tit for tat between different viewpoints and different interests, is in therules, indirectly realized.
Such technicalities, is very important for America such diversification and stressed the importance of individual freedom, equality of all countries, is a necessary condition for the realization of democracy. Otherwise,disagreement on each other, Each sticks to his own view., fighting is awfully,probably never unified resolution, what not to do. Even if can get feasible result, efficiency will be very low. But Robert's rules of order, just like a good design of the machine, can everything in good order and well arranged to get all opinions expressed, expand use rules to suppress their inner interest to seek common ground while reserving differences, find the place, and then in accordance with the rules of voting. Rules guarantee the efficiencyof the Democratic process.
Of course, like a good computer and good software, design technology ofRobert rules only an insight into human nature and strive for fairness and efficiency. In the democratic procedure, this set of rules of procedure of theeffect depends on the meeting, the rules of the game respect.


Blogger Review 2...

I believe many people read the "rules of procedure of the commercial press", many people have great inspiration, but also find it hard to understand, don't start application. It is strange, content is the "Robert rule",why the title is not "Robert" three words?
Some of the problems with the relationship between copyright, the book on the basis of English version is not authentic "Robert rules", but with the1893 "Robert rules" slightly modified the derived version, in order to avoid the copyright problem, the name had to omit. This is not the key, the key isthe 1893 version ah, too old. In fact, the sons of Robert has been old Robert this glorious career inspired, 130 years has not stopped in themodification and perfection of this set of rules, every other period of time will be a new version. A latest version is the 2000 tenth edition. The contentshave been greatly enriched, for each concept, have accurate definition,time to operation, will not be ready to accept either course of confusion, canbetter understand the rules behind itself and rules of philosophy. Only to see such a book, can understand, can see through, to quench their thirst.

Now, Century Publishing Group Gezhi publishing house has finally launched the "Robert rule" the tenth edition of the Chinese version, finally solved thepeople "cannot read, with problems can not". This is a Book (consultation,decision-making) completely manual meeting "". I believe we will be seeingbecome enlightened at once, itch for a try. Let us in practice to find problems, to promote the China meeting to efficient, fair, decent, orderlydevelopment and make unremitting efforts!

Blogger Review 3...

"Robert" is actually a trivial to the limits of the rules of procedure of the reference books, but also is one of the most incisive story books, as if these restrictions and fetters are for the expression of absolute truth, to participate in the formulation of readers, the everywhere displays the brilliance of mind:
1 rules of right superior results are correct;
Rules of right greater than the correct results, as long as the rule is correct even if the result is wrong and change of hope, but if the rules are not wrong. Rules of right is not so easy to judge, multiple testing needs of gifted keen thinking and practice, but the results are correct is very natural. So people are more inclined to believe those identified. The "rules" that after the quasi regular practice correct (not completely correct rules, things are changing).
2 the majority and minority rights conference;
The purpose of the meeting is to get to a particular organization or group to maximize the effectiveness of things through discussion, so that the principle relates to vote should be voted by the majority. Most people's rights and interests on behalf of the organization or group interests. According to the different subjects have different voting limit to ensure implementation, this benefits the most big for example, hark back to a topic needs 2/3 vote etc.. However, the rules can not be ignored in the minority, most can debate needs to be both a full debate can vote, full debate a guarantee from a few sound can be conveyed, which may change the voting results, for example, when a subject after full discussion, a few ideas into most people's idea, fully demonstrated the benefit maximization.
The 3 rule is dead, people are living;

"Rules" principle is to rely on the rules fully, using rules of interests. However, everything is not all regularization, a set of rules to completely solve everything is impossible, so the "rules" itself is self modified, such as in issue process after the vote is to suspend the rules, but the self modification and self learning is totally dependent on and follow the rules.

Blogger Review
      For Pyramid each layer of the supporting arguments, there is a high requirement: MECE (Mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive), which are independent of each other and do not overlap, but together completely exhausted not missing. Do not omit to not delay, do not overlap and can not do without. Pyramid principles seem to be nonsense, but it is a great principle, a great methodology. One of the great uses, solve the problem: when you try to solve the problem, you from bottom to top, collect evidence, summed up the central idea, which built a solid Pyramid. With this general objective, the most effective problem solving. The great use of two, management staff: if you are leading, experienced, with men, to a certain problem, put forward the hypothesis according to your experience, quickly lists first grade three to seven supporting arguments, respectively give different men.
     Two weeks later, his report, you collect arrangement, which built a solid Pyramid. With this principle, the most effective management, leadership is doing the most relaxed. The great use of three, communicate the results: the problem has been resolved, Pyramid has built, you need to communicate, you from top to bottom, from Pyramid to the leadership report.
     The last emperor temple on the morning, give you three minutes, you meet the leadership in the elevator now, to give you thirty seconds, you only report the central argument and a supporting arguments, leading to understand, it's done. If the leaders like Liu Bei, your cottage, and hip meat sink, from breakfast to dinner sit, eat out of your home refrigerator.
     Do you have time to talk, he is interested in, you will report to the eighteenth argument, why the three world, so Shu and can have one. With this principle, the most effective communication.
     As a Chinese, need to be careful, we exchange the traditional daily life, not from Pyramid pointed to Pyramid base, but on the contrary. For example, we usually do this to Wang's mother said: Wang Chihepiaodu smoke, bluff and deceive steal, playing blind scold the dumb, dig the grave look after the widows, Wang is a bad guy. We don't usually do this to Wang mother said: Wang is a bad guy. Then have a look Wang mother's reaction, and further provide evidence: Wang Chihepiaodu smoke, bluff and deceive steal, playing blind scold the dumb, dig out grave look widow door. The principle of pure Pyramid exchange, in China, easy to find.
     As a Chinese, I can be proud of is, Chinese culture broad and profound, foreigners all is stealing our fathers, so not speed Glass hundred cattle theorem but the Pythagorean theorem, so the Yin and Yang Yu is one of the first computer, so Minto is not the Pyramid principles but laodan Pyramid principles: Confucius opened a three thousand consultant management consulting company in the spring and Autumn period, help all ambition evil jump princes through strengthening basic management and improve performance. Confucius asked laodan how training newly hired consultants, Dan said, tell them, the first to master the principle of life, Michiki Ichi, two, two, three, Sansheng endless.

Book Description
     This book is about in the face of market and technology changes of some type, the company is unable to maintain its leading position in their respective industry causes. Are talking about here is not any general company, but what is known for its expertise in the management of the company. They are most managers envy and try to emulate company, is known for a strong innovation and implementation capabilities of the company. These companies cannot avoid difficulties, but also may be out of the woods.
     In this book, the author shows us the common Honda SuperCub motorcycle technology, Intel 8088 chip and hydraulic cutting machine. These new technologies are in their respective fields to define the competition perspective. The core of this dilemma is, a successful company, how to ensure that its products are not new technology out of the market.

About the author
     Clayton Christensen: Professor at Harvard Business School, because of its research on enterprise innovation and original view, known as "the master of innovation".

And this one, established his authority in the field of innovation and technology management.


Blogger Review
    "The innovator's dilemma" if I read the best books in 2011, the book is the main reason why the leading enterprises in the face of breakthrough technology tend to lose their leading position.
    The answer is the leading enterprise too much return customers and market. The book to the development of the disk drive industry as an example, found the disk drive 11 inch, 8 inch, 5.4 inch, 3 inch, 2.5 inch, 1.8 Inch of leading enterprises are the leading position for a period of time, the size of the disk you are dominant, but the development of the next dimension time-varying he is the overlord, and then the next size after another. Why does this phenomenon appear? For example, A enterprise is the production of 11 inch large computer disk drives the overlord, 8 inch technology started out, A enterprise has leading technology, also has R & D and manufacturing capacity of 8 inches, but it found 8 inch storage to enhance the speed of fundamental than 11 inches, and computed its customers attention is focused on the performance of storage capacity, if the A enterprise insists on extension 8 inch disk, the customers will turn to other can improve 11 inch disk performance of the manufacturers, no way, the customer makes the A enterprise still will resources into 11 inch. B is emerging enterprises manufacturers 8 inch disk, which cannot be captured from A enterprise mainframe customers. Therefore, it had to concentrate on looking for more performance size customers, just the computer out, customer value more small size products, so the B enterprise is popular, and A enterprise then on into the 8 "market, found in the brand, technology and other aspects have to catch the B enterprise, A enterprise decline so the. Technology continues to develop, and the emergence of 5.4 inch disk, but the customers feel that the 8 inch is small enough not to pursue a smaller, so B enterprise to its customers. But then the desktop out, desktop client and chose to enter the 5.4 inch C enterprises, like the A enterprise, B enterprise and the decline of the.
    Then the notebook computer, select the production of 2.5 inch D enterprises, and then the production of 1.8 Inch E enterprises have emerged, but their customers to use is not in the computer, but the 1.8 Inch disk used in a surveillance camera data storage. Therefore, in general the original leading enterprises eyes only on existing market and customer needs, in the breakthrough technology assessment system is according to the original market evaluation system to evaluate, which know breakthrough technology is often used for new markets, new customer demand not inconsistent with existing customers. Because the evaluation cannot get through, leading enterprises will still be the main resources into the market.
    In addition, the leading enterprise organization structure is set up according to the original market, may not be applicable to new markets, which led to the defeat reason. The original leading enterprises want to have a method of leading position in the breakthrough technology era is mainly set up a new company, with the original company in personnel, organization structure, resource isolation, even tolerate two new companies produce competition. Thus, it is not difficult to understand why not Suning Appliance e-commerce overlord, and Jingdong is.
    Similarly, Suning the previous estimate and is not considered doing online sales, online shopping but then the market atmosphere not up, people accept degree is low. But in online sales also means stores with the original entity competition, not willing to abandon the original store resources. But Jingdong is no new enterprise burden, to open the store also make but Suning Gome, the first from the edge of market 3C, huh, amount is small, good delivery, no need to install, this kind of goods more easily the first customer understanding, and increasingly large.
    Electronic commerce momentum finally also make Suning dare not underestimated, must be added, otherwise will be market edge. Can be expected in Jingdong first engage in 3C products, the logistics, to engage in customer service, installation, future with Suning appliances such as air conditioning, television for such products. Of course, Suning is not weak, in 2010 began to purchase, as "the innovator's dilemma", a book that way, set up a new company, personnel, procurement, organization is independent, in the logistics, in coordination with the old company.
    How the two development in the future, I also not a good judge. Very interesting, I love those who can predict the future and apply to practice the theory very much, "the innovator's dilemma" is very much in line with the standard. Not only is good place for this book is more difficult to understand the terminology.

Blogger Review
      The greatest truths are the simplest.
      This book is in fact a few months before he finished, but until now to write book review, understanding of the way is also different, I read this book more than from the "business model", not even from the "model" itself, but from the "Generation". Press out of this book at this time, I think to some extent to a kind of tide current:
      -- "let all return to simple".
      So a big paper only a few words, just to tell you: these can be. Rather than make trouble out of nothing than the behavior (the original intention, press intended to convey).
      Therefore, I quite appreciate the "Generation" translated into "new generation", and here, had to admire the wisdom of publishing group. "New generation" is the representative of the new understanding of things, can saying is a kind of regression, it can be said is a upgrade.
      Prior to this, there are many large "mode", as the stage, all flowers bloom together. However, the increasing mode makes people feel not clear direction. Do we think, every industry is a kind of mode, every place needs a specific model, can not be changed, nor can violate. Like a different place is different world.
      However, is it true? Possible without my own work experience, will find an interlacing as foster. But in recent years on the job change process, I vaguely felt: a lot of things are interlinked, and many things.
      The book uses canvas model, through the popular business model, analysis of the various famous companies, as well as the analysis of the development of prediction, gives a surprise us and very interesting business model design innovation. As can be seen, the author hope this canvas model can do many things. But at the same time, the author clearly want to tell our readers, this model is used to help you achieve your creativity, but will not tell you how to implement your ideas, but will not tell you some ideas. It is not a fish, fishing is not even, it is at best a fish basket. However, this instead let me more love this book. For me, I don't need someone to tell me what is useful; I hope I don't forget to tell each other where. I also know a lot of things to get instant results more popular, "pragmatism" is also popular in the present society. But I believe, these are just the surface of things. If we are merely "take-ism", we will quickly fall into a blind alley. For example, the requirements in the popular book is "don't eat alone" tips mentioned inside. If really put these skills can be found in real life, too pursuit of detail but will make people lose the direction, heart gaunt. Another way of the old man's words, that is: pick a watermelon seed lost. In this society, no matter how to say, the original is the mainstream. This is why GRE a test does not care about your grammar errors, but hate the same reason. And we see reality, plagiarism, others will be very angry, so why indulge yourself? I love this book for me according to this canvas model to fully transfer and imagination and ability of their own, if the previous efforts still worry about personal gains and losses of the psychological, then this book will let me have a peace of mind. I can make all aspects to consider things, it also promoted the more adhere firmly to their target confidence.

Blogger Review
    "Blue Ocean Strategy" is indeed a good book, creative thinking, clear and concise text, convincing examples, and has significant practical value. I read carefully, find out the following value. Enterprises with "value innovation" can create blue ocean for yourself. The so-called "blue ocean", refers to the enterprise beyond the industry competition, and create new market space, the enterprise the competitive market of "the red sea".
   "Blue ocean" meaning is not new, since ancient times are examples of such enterprises to open up new areas of business, but the "blue" with an image of the noun, the value innovation phenomenon to be summarized, also suggests a set of user-friendly, easy operation strategy analysis tools, makes this book since its debut in February, 2005 popular. Blue ocean core, in the "value innovation": if the enterprises want from the reality of the fiercely competitive market environment, should first from value creation efforts, create new value for consumers.
   "Blue book" analysis tool is put forward in this paper, the need to increase the value innovation and creating new value elements industry has never provided, while reducing and eliminating some unnecessary. "Blue book" blue ocean strategy proposed unit of analysis is the strategic action (Strategic (move) launched a pile to open up the market's main business projects involving a set of management actions and decision), rather than the industry, or the specific enterprise, this is different and I saw the past, more persuasive. The market always in change, any industry or because of technical development, or because of social evolution and change, have their life cycle; any company, in the industry to change, need to constantly according to the realities of the market, adjust its strategy and action, in order to obtain the growing vitality.
   "Strategic layout" and "value curve" is a useful strategy analysis tools. When making strategic layout in the enterprise management personnel, the picture can be very good to help the understanding of the strategic position of the: what am I? The competition is how to? How do we contrast? I should be improved in where? "The core of strategy layout" is "the value curve," blue ocean strategy reflects three characteristics in the value curve: "focus", "another way", "the theme of convincing".
   The enterprise can continuously monitor their own and competitor "value curve", to adjust its strategy. Constructing the strategy sequence of blue ocean strategy is the four step: "can create outstanding buyer utility", "identify attractive price", "can achieve the cost target" and "solve accept obstacles".
   "Blue" on how the organization execution of blue ocean strategy suggestions, also have the inspiration to me. Here, the author introduced the "/Tipping Point" tipping point "theory, put forward the" tipping point leadership". The actual application of the tipping point theory in organizational change, is realistic.

Blogger Review
     Three ambits two six Wang Guowei's "human words" the wrote scholarly research. The source said: "the ancient and modern into big business, University asked, shall pass through the realm of three kinds of. 'last night the west wind withered Bishu, alone on the high-rises, at Tianya road', the first exit is also; 'increasingly wide eventually not regret, pining away', that is the second stage; 'he found in the thousands of degrees, back Mojian, that is the lights', the third boundary also. For these three words, not experience before, now there's experience. Because the working relationship, he has been trying to decipher what is management, and tried to get the efficiency of organization or enterprise should return from management, as far as possible the press organization performance.
     This book has also seen a lot, Zheng Guofan, Mintzberg, Drucker, but the only way, linear thinking in science and engineering, and fit in the organization and management. I forced myself to read a lot, things did not write it down, but found that these management master many common views, these things are very simple, very concise, and many of them are themselves before know or other predecessors emphasize repeatedly. But I didn't believe it was as simple as that, psychological face a way, I don't believe so important secret, others will easily give you say.
     Always, always believe that idiot like what is the secret of this world, whether it is to other EMBA to be resourceful. Entrepreneurs ask students master learning, or repeatedly to study Chinese and foreign masters level of speech and writings. Try to learn in order to practise, like martial arts novels written by the existence of a supreme martial arts cheats, as long as the learning can become the world master.
     Today after the master's works, and found that there is no such thing as a, is still seen in the first time, leaders or senior touch on lightly content, and disappointed, only see light suddenly. In the process of learning and management of the road, very confused and hardships, they take a lot of repeat mistakes, hope to have the pleasure of seeing this message, brothers and sisters, do not waste a lot of time. Management is actually the product and life, and management is not fixed, not because you read a few books, eat a few years can be well management. Management and investment is the same, the vast majority of time in understanding and against humanity.
    Therefore, management it is "paper come Zhongjue shallow, no matter known to practice". Our experience or books style summary, management is not obtained from books to the. Don't expect to see, you can manage a company to become a manager. To compare with the chivalric fiction novel plot, why the final master in Wudang and Shaolin? Because, Wudang and Shaolin martial arts from life, are summed up from practical experience. Wudang Kung Fu is from standing agricultural ways of training; and the Shaolin martial arts karma fate in ordinary physical labor. So from the daily experience and understanding of human nature to realize different organizations and different object management.
    Today, after watching "the practice of management", and recalled the Haier Zhang Ruimin in front of recommendation written words, is the best practice management framework.
