Requesting a 2,000-word essay on economics or management based on a certain story in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Abstract 200 words

It is said that Lu Bu went from wage earner to boss, and soon returned to his former glory. But within two days of the good days, Lu Bu felt inexplicably irritable. Although he had complete control of the Xuzhou company, he always felt that something was wrong. He was secretly wondering and said to Diao Chan: "Does this company still pay attention to the relationship between the first wife and the boss?"

Diao Chan asked: "What did you say?"

Lu Bu said: "When the Xuzhou Company was in the hands of Liu Bei, although there were many troubles, the business was booming. Now that it is in my hands, it has become like a sieve, with things everywhere Where is the hole?"

Diao Chan said: "But Liu Bei is not the original wife of Xuzhou Company!"

Lu Bu said: "I can't figure out the mystery. At the end of the year, the three-month salary arrears to employees need to be repaid, and rewarding employees is also a huge expense. This financial situation cannot be solved no matter what, you go to Cai Wenji and ask her to help tell Cao Cao. A few good words."

Diao Chan asked: "Are you going to borrow money again?"

Lu Bu said with a wry smile: "Every year is difficult, how can you survive without borrowing money? "

This is not the first time Lu Bu has borrowed money from Cao Cao, but the company's situation is getting increasingly bleak. Cao Cao's company has good business performance and often lends money to Lu Bu. It is Lu Bu's largest creditor. He was afraid that Lu Bu would not be able to repay his debts, so he hesitated. Cai Wenji said to Diao Chan embarrassedly on the phone: "I'm sorry, I've tried my best."

"Isn't this going to kill me?" Lu Bu was as anxious as a headless fly, scurrying around.

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly. It was not only the salary issue, but also the future of the company that made Lu Bu feel extremely frustrated. Although the market competition is fierce, after all, people find gold every year. The company loses money because its employees are not efficient at work. Employees' work efficiency is not high. Ultimately, it is because of the talent shortage.

He was also extremely angry and laughed. Lu Bu frowned for many days and suddenly remembered a story.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, a man from the State of Yue held a banquet to entertain guests.

It was almost noon, and there were still a few people who had not arrived. He said to himself: "Why hasn't what should come come yet?"

Hearing this, some guests thought to themselves: "If what should come has not come, then I shouldn't come. ?" Then he stood up and left.

The man regretted that he had said the wrong thing and quickly explained: "Why should I leave if I shouldn't leave?"

The other guests thought to themselves: "Let's leave if I shouldn't leave." "Well, it seems I should go!" They all stood up and left, leaving only one long-time friend.

My friend blamed him and said, "Look, you really can't speak, and you made all the guests angry."

The man defended himself and said, "I'm not talking about them."

When my friend heard this, he immediately felt angry: "It's not them! It's only me!" So he sighed and left.

This story is obviously a joke, but for Lu Bu, it is exactly what he wants to say that has been hidden in his heart for a long time. In the company, it is always difficult to retain good talents. For example, Chen Deng defected to Cao Cao, Xu Si and Wang Kai defected to Yuan Shu, and some people became their own bosses. The people stranded in the company are either old, weak, sick or disabled, or mediocre and incompetent. Therefore, the sentence "What should come does not come, and what should not go is gone" is a true portrayal of the company's human resources situation.

It’s the end of the year and the beginning of the new year. For some capable people, they may start to think in their minds: to change jobs or not to change jobs? For more mediocre people, they pray that they can continue to have a bowl of food next year. Of course, they also have to figure out what the boss means: to stay or not to stay?

Under Lu Bu, there was only one salesman named Zhang Liao who could barely create some performance. But Lu Bu knew that if he wanted to leave, there would be no way to keep him. In addition, only Chen Gong, the executive deputy general manager, can still worry about the company.

With such a small team, trying to turn losses into profits next year is like a pauper dreaming of marrying a wife, which is obviously impossible.

Lü Bu thought about it and felt that there was nothing he could do to save the situation, so he had to ask Cao Cao to acquire the Xuzhou company.

Lü Bu refused to rest in peace

Cao Cao went to ask Liu Bei for his opinion. Liu Bei said: "The Xuzhou Company is already insolvent. Why did you acquire it? Besides, this kid Lu Bu has a heart like a snake and a scorpion. Be careful if he comes back to life and bites you, a kind farmer, to death." After hearing this, Cao Cao not only refused to After acquiring the Xuzhou company, he instead sent gangsters to collect debts from Lu Bu.

The employees of the Xuzhou company couldn't see their boss for several days, and they were murmuring in their hearts. Hou Cheng from the purchasing department told everyone that Lu Bu took his wife Diao Chan to hide from debts. The company suddenly felt like a pot was boiling, and everyone was complaining.

Another colleague Wei Xu said: "This kid Lu Bu is so infuriating. We must try to find him, otherwise, where will we get the money to celebrate the New Year?"

Hou Cheng said: "It's actually not difficult to find Lu Bu. He is driving his BMW. As long as you find the BMW, you will definitely find Lu Bu."

Song Xian cursed: "At this point, In this situation, he only cares about beauties and cars, and he doesn’t care about our lives!”

Soon, Hou Chengcheng discovered Lu Bu’s red BMW near a supermarket. He looked around and saw that Lu Bu was nowhere to be seen, so he decisively opened the car door and drove away. Less than a week later, Cao Cao's men, with the help of Song Xian and Wei Xu, captured the desperate Lu Bu at Baimen Tower and chopped off his head. It's a pity that Lu Bu's generation of heroes ended up in such a miserable end.

After Lu Bu's death, his ghost lingered. He came back to Liu Bei and said, "Xuan De Gong, you said bad things about me in front of Cao Cao. I don't blame you. Who told me to harm you by playing tricks on you?" What? But what makes me sad is, why can the Xuzhou company be so successful in your hands, but it is not as good as it is in my hands?" Liu Bei said: "Lu Bu, Although you are good at business and smarter than me, when it comes to human resources management, you are not as good as me. Before you came, although Xuzhou Company's strength was limited, every employee would work hard for the company. And since you became the boss of the company, they are no longer as diligent as before. Without diligent employees, no matter how talented you are, Lu Bu, you are just a salesman, but you can't manage a company well."

Lu Bu thought for a while and said, "I'm also surprised that no one else in the company except me knows what they are busy with. However, I still don't know what the problem is."

Liu Bei said : "There are two mistakes in what you just said. First, your role is misplaced. You should be an excellent manager, not an excellent salesperson - you should select excellent talents and let others Go do business. As the old saying goes, if you can't appoint talents, all the talents will be scattered. Think about it, is there a second salesperson in the entire company besides you?

Lu Bu nodded and said: "That's right. So, is there another mistake?"

Liu Bei said: "You just said that you are the only salesperson in the entire company, and no one else knows What are they busy about, right? Let me tell you the truth, they are pretending to be busy. Yes, they are pretending to be diligent."

Six tips for pretending to be diligent.

"Pretend to be diligent?"

"Yes." Liu Bei said proudly, "As far as I know, they used six tricks of pretending to be diligent to deal with you."

"What six tips?"

"The first tip: walk around with documents in hand. You know, the person holding the document looks like he is going to a high-level meeting, and the person holding the newspaper looks like he is going to the toilet. People with empty hands will be thought to be going out to eat. Therefore, your employees all know: first, do not leave your seat; if you leave your seat, you will have a document in your hand."

Lu Bu has eaten. Shocked: “That’s it.

No wonder that boy Chen Deng always looks busy. I thought this guy was a talent, so I entrusted him with an important task. Unexpectedly, he jumped to Cao Cao's company and stole my core secrets. "

Liu Bei smiled and said: "Chen Deng is a smart man. He knows that sooner or later you will see the flaw and fire him, so he fired you in advance. However, Chen Deng and others still have many clever tricks to deal with you.

The second trick is: knock on the computer all the time..."

"Computer? ”

“Yes. In the eyes of many people, people who are immersed in computers in the office are people who are actively working. But who knows, what is he doing? He can look up information, write love letters, calculate stock prices... albeit doing things that have nothing to do with work. ”

“No wonder they are so good at putting on a show, they spend all day online! Lu Bu gritted his teeth with hatred, "They even know exactly how many freckles Xiao Qiao has on her butt, but they just don't know how to find customers... So, what's the third move?" ”

“Third move: piles on the desk. You know, you and a few vice presidents are the only ones in the company who have secretaries to clean up the office. If a wage earner's desk is too tidy, it will make people misunderstand that he is not working hard enough. What's more, to others, there is no difference between last year's documents and today's documents, so why not stack them together? When you come to him asking for papers, he digs through the pile, showing how heavy his job is. Not enough documents? There are always books, but thick and heavy computer books are the best. "

Lu Bu sighed: "I have held several meetings and asked that 'today's work be completed today', but nothing can be done. ”

“No one will use the spirit of the meeting as a command arrow. Many times, meeting spirit can be a trap. Knowing that there is a trap ahead, but falling into the trap, isn't this a fool? Everyone knows that if he really cleans the table, you will think that he is very idle. Isn't he just looking for trouble? "

Lu Bu was dumbfounded.

"Listen, the fourth move: sigh and pretend to be annoyed." If a person often acts like he has something urgent to do, his boss will think that he is doing his job faithfully. Or sighing in front of everyone, everyone must understand how much pressure he faces. "

Lu Bu smiled bitterly, as did all his subordinates.

"There is also a fifth move. If you were in the office, they would be working later than you, leaving you impressed with their ‘hustle’. "

Lu Bu smiled bitterly and nodded again.

"The sixth trick: keep talking with profound vocabulary. Today is a computer craze, and smart people will never forget to read more computer magazines to absorb popular information technology terminology and new product names. These words come in handy when people are talking. He kept saying, you, the boss, think that he is a computer expert and the most highly used new human being nowadays, so how do you know that he is just a facade? "

Buying and selling vegetables

Lu Bu looked up to the sky and sighed: "I was deceived by these bastards who were just fake. But why do they treat me like this? "

Liu Bei winked slyly and asked: "Have you ever gone to the vegetable market to buy vegetables? "

Lu Bu said: "When I was unemployed and couldn't afford to hire a servant, I went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables myself. ”

“So,” Liu Bei asked, “is the situation at that time like this: on the one hand, you were bargaining to buy vegetables, and on the other hand, the vegetable sellers were short of goods and using inferior ones for superior ones. Selling vegetables? "

Lu Bu was startled: "It is indeed true, Mr. Xuande, it is as if you saw it with your own eyes at that time. Liu Bei smiled again and continued to ask: "So, when you are managing the company, do you often use fines to deduct employees' wages?" ”

“This is indeed the case. ”

“For the same reason,” Liu Bei concluded, “they are also using the method of pretending to be diligent to make up for their shortcomings with you and use their bad qualities to make up for their good qualities! You shouldn't do human resource management the same way you buy groceries, and that's why you'll fail.

"

... Lu Bu was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he asked strangely: "How does Mr. Xuande understand the wet market theory? ”

Liu Bei replied: “The world only knows that I have sold straw sandals, but they don’t know that I can also sell vegetables.” Therefore, I will never use the grocery shopping method to do human resource management. "

Lu Bu asked: "If there is another life, what should I do? "

Liu Bei said: "You should be like me and use the method of selling vegetables to manage human resources. Not only selling vegetables, but also the nutrition of vegetables. Let your employees help you grow vegetables in order to continue to get the nutrients from the vegetables. I have always done a good job in this regard. Only when I selected you as vice president, something unexpected happened. "

Lu Bu suddenly realized: "I know, you are the best at selling carrots. "

Liu Bei had a sly smile in his eyes and nodded meaningfully.

Lü Bu sighed: "Cao Cao is right: today's heroes are the only ones who make you and Cao Er. . Cao Cao was good at capital management, but Xuande Gong was good at cultural management. With these two people, how can I, Lu Bu, be reborn in this world? ”

○The author○commented

A famous economist wrote that the so-called salary management is to use the “lowest labor cost” to buy the “highest business” "Performance". This view is deeply resented by many working people, because their labor force is like a commodity that can be bargained for in the market. Are economists wrong? Of course not. But he ignored the following three questions:

First, labor is a special commodity, and human dignity needs to be taken into consideration when putting a price tag on it.

Second, those who provide labor do not just want to be bossed. Salary is regarded as a cost, as well as the happiness of working life.

Thirdly, every employee hopes to share the company's business performance with the boss, because it is saturated with their emotions.

If you ignore employees' emotions in salary management like economists do, then you can't expect employees to love their jobs. As a result, the labor-management relationship becomes a buyer-seller relationship, with bargaining and arrogance on one side. There is a lack of strength, there is competition for interests, and everyone has their own agenda.

Therefore, people-oriented salary management will pay attention to the emotional needs of employees and will take "performance sharing" as the theme of salary management. . As a result, the labor-management relationship has become a partnership, with connected interests and the same goal.

This is the difference between buying vegetables and selling vegetables.
