Recently, because the enterprise is in a strategic transition period, it has been visited by Mao Zedong (before 1949). Before I opened it, I thought it was an official bulletin board, and I didn’t get much, but with the deepening of the chapter, I found it was very profitable, so that I stayed up until 2 am after work every night (about 12 o’clock when I got home).
In fact, Mao Zedong was not my favorite and beloved leader in the past, but after reading the prequel, it was really difficult and extraordinary for Fang Zhiwei to become a great man.
The commonness of entrepreneurs is to turn good ideas into enterprises, make small enterprises bigger and make weak enterprises stronger. If China Revolution is likened to a kind of entrepreneurship, Mao Zedong, as a pioneer, is actually a kind of entrepreneurship. So I can have a strong resonance in my heart.
At present, I haven’t finished reading it, so I can’t write my thoughts. In order to communicate with you, I will first record the excellent character of Mao Zedong that I extracted and write it into my own mind, so as to discuss with you: (The following only expresses my summary of Mao Ze’s character before 1949) Mao Zedong’s style:
1, insist on proceeding from reality, is a very prominent feature of Mao Zedong.
Go deep into practice and speak on the basis of facts; Entrepreneurial enterprises are mostly in the initial stage of the market. With the development of enterprises, too many situations will break into them. Failure to investigate and adhere to the actual situation of enterprises will often lead to overheating of entrepreneurial entrepreneurs, or optimism or pessimism about the situation in the past, thus losing a peaceful and rational view to deal with and treat various problems in the entrepreneurial process, thus losing rational decision-making and leading to the death of start-ups. Mao Zedong once said: Without investigation and study, there is no right to speak. Before liberation, all his decisions passed investigation and analysis.
2. Be good at planning and summarizing.
Mao Zedong is good at planning before the war and summing up after the war. This feature can be used for reference for entrepreneurs who are "busy". No one can guarantee not to take a detour on the road of starting a business. Before driving away, consider all possible situations, make a detailed plan, and then make a written summary after the first stage, so that you will understand many management and operation methods with the characteristics of your own business. I have made many mistakes at this point.
3. Adversity and foresight
In Jinggangshan, Mao Zedong has only a team of more than 700 people. In the face of five encirclement and suppression campaigns by the Kuomintang, it has not only not been wiped out, but also developed into an army of nearly 100,000. Such cases are rare at all times and in all countries. This shows that Mao Ze’s foresight and persistence have succeeded in adversity. Adversity is a golden furnace for entrepreneurs: whether you can succeed or not depends mainly on how you find your own position in adversity and despair and find a way out. So adversity makes entrepreneurs.
The path of entrepreneurs is tortuous, but we must strengthen our faith and belief: we will succeed! !
Mao Zedong was not the leader of the Communist Party of China from the beginning, but really became a leader in the Seventh National Congress of China in Yan ‘an. Before that, especially before the Zunyi Conference, Mao Zedong was squeezed out by many people, but he had a global view and found his own position between the commonness and individuality of organized obedience. Similarly, he had never studied military affairs, and when he commanded the war, the overall view helped him a lot, especially the introduction of a series of overall theories of new China in the decisive stage (the Kuomintang did not), which can be said to have laid a theoretical victory.
For entrepreneurs, everything should consider a comprehensive factor, including people, finance, materials, production, supply, marketing, administration, logistics, strategy and implementation. It can be said that entrepreneurship is a systematic project of innovation. People who don’t have a global view can’t rely on a few empty slogans. They should take care of them systematically.
4. Theory+Practice
No theory, okay? Many entrepreneurs may say that I am not afraid if I have customers.
My opinion is that there is no theory, and any start-up enterprise can’t do much (under the premise of market economy). Theory comes from reality and then guides reality. The value added in this process is your value, that is, the value of entrepreneurs.
5, learning to promote entrepreneurship
Learning to read and spending time reading is actually a powerful thinking. Be sure to leave yourself time to study. As we all know, Mao Zedong is a man who knows how to learn and is good at learning. The point to be emphasized in this way is that learning is not just going to the college to learn something, but what you must do. MBA-MBA can’t directly increase the profit of your enterprise, but can increase your learning, and learning can be thought and summarized anytime and anywhere, which is also a kind of learning. Mao Zedong said: "Learning is like standing on a mountain, and you can see many things far away;" Without learning, if you walk in an underground ditch and can’t find it, it will be bitter. "
6. Broad-minded
Mao Zedong is a broad-minded person. "This kind of" cruel struggle, ruthless attack "comes from his own party. This is a severe test. If there is no strong belief, broad mind and iron will, it is difficult for a person to stand this test. " Yes, in the face of the attack of his comrades, he was able to study for two years from the vacant leadership position of Ruijin’s government chairman. Entrepreneurs often have to face the opinions and pressures that may come from their own team, their comrades-in-arms and their own shareholders. At this time, it is inevitable that they will be wronged, so they must be big-minded, which can be described as "how big they can do with their hearts". In fact, many times, you and I can’t do this, so we have to cultivate our morality.
7. Mao Zedong, a United person, has changed a lot since Zunyi Conference. He is more calm, sophisticated, thoughtful and especially good at uniting people. Entrepreneurs should unite with shareholders, employees, customers and even their own suppliers, because the competition in this era is a group competition, not a hero’s one-on-one competition. I watched the very popular Troy the day before yesterday, and when I saw the two protagonists playing one-on-one, I really looked forward to it. Unfortunately, times are different now.
8. Establish a network
"Our party’s organization should develop to the whole country, consciously cultivate tens of thousands of cadres and have hundreds of the best mass leaders. These cadres and leaders know Marxism–Leninism, have political foresight, have the ability to work, are full of sacrifice spirit, can solve problems independently, do not waver in difficulties, and work faithfully for the nation, the class and the party. " The same is true of starting a business. On the economic latitude and longitude line, every enterprise is in a network and outside many networks. If we want to survive, we have to provide services and establish internet communication. Networking is a network, and marketing is also a network.
9, brainstorming
Why can Mao Zedong make such a great theoretical creation? On the one hand, because he has always been based on the infinitely rich practice of China’s revolutionary struggle, every step of his understanding has come from careful observation and in-depth thinking of various new situations and new problems in objective real life, from repeatedly exchanging views with people who know the actual situation and brainstorming, and never making that kind of personal meditation that is divorced from reality; On the other hand, he studied Marxist works diligently.
After a start-up enterprise reaches a certain scale, it is generally far from the front-line work. At this time, the decision-making has to listen to the advice of front-line employees, because truth comes from practice, and you can’t think of any truth when you play computer in the office all day.
10. A single spark can start a prairie fire.
Do small things first, then be broad. Do practical things, don’t be eager for quick success and instant benefit, and don’t just aim for greatness. For start-ups, survival is the most important thing. Apart from this, everything else is empty talk.
11. Be good at grasping principles and delegating power to others.
Jiang often unnecessarily asks too many complicated matters and criticizes everything his commanders do afterwards.
….. Mao, on the other hand, is very good at appointing others to take charge of something, so that he has enough time to consider and analyze a bigger vision; He is also good at setting an example and summing up experience. Due to traffic jams and difficulties, it is impossible for internal communication to give specific military and political instructions to the far-away anti-Japanese base areas. This requires everyone to understand and follow the general principles and routes, flexibly combine consistency and initiative, and let them judge and decide their own actions. "
Mao Zedong in these days, has been very calm. He sticks to the principle and never gives up his correct and practical ideas. At the same time, he takes the overall situation into account, observes discipline and continues to make his own contributions as far as possible. Li Weihan, who witnessed all this, once described: "He insisted on three things: First, the minority obeyed the majority; Second, it is not negative; The third is to try to do some work under the conditions of the party’s permission.
Decentralization is the most rational choice for entrepreneurs.
12. Strength is the first principle (military first, theoretical propaganda first, strength first, politics first) Mao Zedong is very concerned about this unit’s southward movement. He gave a report to the cadres preparing to go to the front in the auditorium of the Central Party School, saying: The Kuomintang has no hope at all. China people want to be liberated, and China wants to be saved. Only communist party can do it. People all over the country are looking up to us. Therefore, "we should try our best to develop ourselves and develop our strength 100%".
Without the strength of entrepreneurs, there is no room for your survival. This is the truth, just as development is the last word.
13. Move.
The core competitiveness of Mao Ze’s military guidance lies in dynamic warfare, that is, making the army move.
The boat is easy to turn around and move, you will make your opponent afraid, which is why the elephant IBM also wants to dance.
14, grasp the moment
Mao Zedong is such a leader. When history quietly develops to a turning point, even if people have some vague feelings, they are often limited to their original views. It is difficult to immediately and keenly perceive that this turning point has arrived, and it is even more difficult to immediately recognize a series of new situations and problems that accompany this new situation. Mao Zedong, on the other hand, could clearly see all this earlier than the average person, and immediately put forward the principles and policies that should be adopted in this new situation after careful consideration. After his careful analysis and clear judgment on the situation, people suddenly felt suddenly enlightened. This is indeed his great strength.
In the face of start-ups, opportunities for development are often fleeting. For business leaders, we should also learn to analyze problems with quantitative and qualitative changes of philosophy, and when there is a big opportunity, there will be great development.
Having said that, we are not required to start a business as mentioned above, because if so, we will all be great men, but as long as we learn a little, it will be enough for starting a business.
