Woman In Irish Linen Shirt

The mask order was long overdue and finally landed in mid-April.

When I went shopping last weekend, I ran into two or three people who didn't wear masks along the way. In places like supermarkets, people who did not wear masks were not allowed to enter for a long time. As a result, I met an elderly resident who was completely unprotected at the door that day and was arguing with the registration staff. I just heard him say "I'm sorry" when I was passing by, but I haven't reacted yet-a very loud sneeze.

This time he had to wear it if he didn't wear it. Maybe he was really embarrassed. He put on a mask and left without entering the supermarket.

Singaporeans love to run. There has been some discussion about whether to wear a mask during outdoor sports. After all, old people have worse cardiorespiratory function, and they feel out of breath when wearing a mask. This is very repellent, and it is also human nature. But the sneeze did startle me.

I'm pretty good. The registrar at the supermarket may have been accustomed to seeing things in the world this time, and there is no reaction; the young man who entered together was very alert and avoided far away, frowning. I thought to myself that he hasn't coughed yet. If he does, how nervous is this person?

Of course, unruly people are not welcome anywhere.

It was disappointing that one thing was promised but not done in the end. The BCG framework proposal was delayed until Thursday's conference. It was the 16th, and fifteen days had passed since the date they promised.

As far as I know, the people at BCG would not do such a thing. What's more, project manager Xu Xin has been working for many years, so he doesn't know the negative effects of such delays. Furthermore, Miss Pan De is also on the project. Even if they take a small deliverable to attract the customer's attention first, it is better than it is now.

What are the calculations?

Until Thursday, I didn't get a good night's sleep.

The big boss attended the meeting in person. He usually asks Josephine to attend the conference with BCG. Sometimes the scene we discuss is really unsightly, and it is not appropriate for the big boss to be present; it may be based on the same considerations that Miss Pande is not here every time. The number of collisions between two people is very limited. Today is the third time.

The host of the meeting was Xu Xin, and he put himself on top. I zoomed out the demo screen, focusing mostly on the expressions of the participants.

Behind Miss Pan De is a huge wall of books. They are all paperback books, and some of the spine is old, and she often reads them when she wants to come. She looks so busy.

I quietly moved my neck and shoulders to watch Xu Xin's performance.

This is indeed a plan to break the boat. At first glance, the brand-new departmental framework proposed by BCG is impossible to achieve. In their plan, the two departments were merged together, and part of the external department staff of the support post was absorbed, so that there was a large team. When it comes to the assignment of the project team, each person in charge in the large team will move as the supervisor. Today, I may be helping Kevin, and tomorrow’s new project, it may be a teenager like Ruben Ding with a group of veterans working alone. .

The staff structure is naturally flatter, and the work model and delivery process are of course more unified, but this is not an issue.

Such a bold innovation can only be called nonsense.

It is not my job to advocate "nonsense". Lao Huang charged forward. I think the big boss has endured very hard, but he cannot speak easily in his position.

The boss and Kevin didn't talk to each other, Sanjay was in the same state as me, watching the fire from the other side.

Once it comes to specific issues, it is difficult for BCG people to convince Lao Huang. It doesn't matter whether they can persuade Huang, what matters is how the scene looks: as far as my senses are concerned, I think Xu Xin has been questioned.

To be a project manager, he is clearly a leader. Xu Xinhui is very good at consulting companies, but most of the people present have consulting backgrounds. In his words, which are real and which are fictitious, he can distinguish between what is real and what is fictitious.

Miss Pan De was calm, but her smile faded.

With a hunch in my heart, she immediately said: "Can I say a few words?"

"Of course." Xu Xin closed the file presentation, and Miss Pan De's screen appeared at the forefront.

I swept around, and almost everyone became energetic at the same time. An Ning was ranked very high because of the initials, and she seemed a little sleepy at first. Hearing Miss Pan De's voice, she sat upright, and even took the camera to find the white balance for two or three seconds. It was a quick glance at the past that changed the most.

I think it's a bit funny. At this time, Miss Pan De glanced at her camera, but in my opinion, she was almost looking directly at me.

I controlled my expression and immersed myself in taking notes.

"I don't know if any of you watch ball games." Miss Pande went straight into it. "The concept of a giant team is not uncommon, and the effect of digging talents and improving game performance has been verified. Suppose a team has only Twenty people, and the starting eleven may not change much throughout the season. The bench players have been sitting on the bench, and the main players have been injured frequently. This is not the best state of the team."

This analogy is a good idea. I know that she will use a different way of expressing their framework again, so I pay more attention to the technical details.

She is like those ball enthusiasts who pay more attention to strategy and coaching team, and start to talk: "But if our team has fifty people, eighty people, or even more, the team can play. Competition. Members in each position no longer need to sit on the cold bench, they can get training during the game, and then gain the possibility of technical improvement. It is not necessary to let the main players play in all competitions, and the decline in injury rate is inevitable.

"In this way, although the initial winning percentage may not be better than before, the results of key games are always guaranteed. More importantly, everyone on the team can play their own value. Even those lost games, Young players who get the chance to play can also gain experience in the game, and the main players always maintain a sense of crisis, so as to achieve the progress of the entire team."

"This is not a team." Huang said, "We are discussing a company. This is a business practice."

Since it is not face-to-face, Miss Pan De's aggressiveness in the video is greatly reduced. She smiled and said: "Modern ball games are also commercial practices."

Checkmate.

Old Huang was careless.

Miss Pande continued: "I understand that there may be some concerns. For the team, it may not matter to lose some unimportant games. But for a company, even non-core businesses sometimes play a strategic defense. What's more, the situation is always interrelated, and there is continuity in business. It cannot be said that it is completely equivalent to the management of the team."

I increased my vigilance.

It's true, and from the look of their faces, everyone's expressions have relaxed a little. Whether it is true or false is not yet known, but now is the dangerous time, and it is not an exaggeration to get up to the point.

"Injury rate also exists in enterprises. Think of it as KPI, or the last elimination system, if the injury of the project leader can be minimized..." She hinted with silence, and then said, "The choice is large enough. The project also means richer communication between employees. I always believe that experience is one of the greatest wealth of a company. Once the structure of the giant team can be realized, the enthusiasm and communication density of employees will be greatly improved—

"And this is in line with the genes of Internet companies."

This hits the lifeblood of our company.

Just when I was trying my best to think about breaking tricks, I unexpectedly had my own voice. I can't believe it, but the facts are in front of me...

It's our big boss.

What am I talking about, he is a workaholic. This plan attracted him.

The big boss asked some technical details. I'm the first two big guys, and the boss doesn't have to fight melee, of course, he can still maintain his poker face; but even Kevin seems to be confused, so I am not the only one who is surprised. I wrote down the questions I heard mechanically in shorthand, but it was purely English to English, and I was thinking about something else in my mind.

"Maybe we can listen to the thoughts of the executives who served as specific businesses. In terms of executives, I think Yao and Sanjie both have a say." Miss Pan De called.

Although she symbolically delineated a range, among the participants, whether it is from our company or from BCG, I am afraid that she wants me to speak. The big boss also nodded, Sanjay obviously would not take the initiative to invite Ying, I have to say this.

Is my first task?

I slowly covered my pen within the visible range of the lens. When I spoke, it must be Miss Pan De who couldn't hear the slightest loophole. I said: "This is a very beautiful framework, very constructive, and I think it is feasible."

The BCG side's expression changed.

Before the big boss asked the question, I added: "Unlike multiple choice questions, business work usually only has a single goal and no unique solution. Although this is a feasible solution, it will inevitably face many implementation problems in its implementation. The mega team model The running-in, in the framework of BCG, is compensated by the so-called'unified delivery process', right?"

"You are right." Xu Xin was the one who answered the conversation.

I try to maintain my goodwill towards them in terms of wording, while trying to point out the problem: "In this way, the running-in can be systematically reduced to a certain extent. I am very interested in this set of procedures-no matter what, I Think we can think of it as a separate deliverable, right? It will play a big role even in a normal office."

Kevin was the first to recover, but Miss Pande almost followed closely behind.

It's terrible, what did this woman grow up with?

I didn’t give them a chance to interrupt me: “Although there may be several project teams, our working styles will gradually converge in a giant team. New, I remember you mentioned that, the work mode will also be adapted accordingly. Adjust, right?"

I only asked for a symbolic question. As soon as he answered, I continued, leaving no gaps: "This is also the key to the giant team mode. Just like Sonia said, this is a team, isn't it?"

Miss Pan De spoke first. Xu Xin might be trying to explain something, but she should have stopped as soon as she heard Miss Pan De's voice. She only spoke, and I found that she had a good idea of ​​my thoughts. If it's Xu Xin, I can interrupt him hard and interfere with his narrative rhythm; it's a pity that Miss Pan De is on the opposite side.

It is said that the king does not see the king, forcing Miss Pan De to end in person, and the big boss still sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, I have nothing to blame.
