"Chef effect"-never let yourself be passive.

If you invest in opening a restaurant yourself, ask the chef to cook. The dishes cooked by the chef are really delicious, and people come to eat in an endless stream. It can be said that the restaurant business is very hot. The chef sees that the restaurant business is so good because the dishes he cooks are delicious, which has nothing to do with your operation and the decoration of the whole store.

The chef will ask you for a raise or shares, otherwise he will resign. You were forced to cook or cook less delicious than him, knowing that the chef kept your whole restaurant running normally, and finally agreed to his request.

At this time, you are actually very passive, because giving a large part of the profits to the chef will hinder the actual operation of the restaurant and personal career development. However, if the conditions can't be settled and the chef runs away, the restaurant that has worked so hard will be destroyed and all the investment will be lost.

After the chef left, he opened his own restaurant, and the business may not be as good as before, because people who can cook may not run it. Besides, you can only manage but can't cook, and the restaurant won't be open for long.

Therefore, the "chef effect" means that when people in a certain position are indispensable, they often overestimate their abilities and think that they want to "blackmail" others and put them in a passive position.

There are some startups, which are often just a few people doing what they say. To a certain extent, people who have mastered an important technology leave their jobs because of uneven distribution of benefits or other differences of opinion, and it is very likely that the whole company will close down because of lack of core members.

What do you think of the' chef effect'? I think we should distinguish the roles and then analyze the countermeasures from different angles.

1 employee or partner

When you are an employee of a company, of course, you should strive to master the core competence and make yourself an indispensable talent of the company, or a leader in the whole industry.

Capable, irreplaceable, you have bargaining power. At this time, the boss will definitely give you a raise and promotion, no matter how much money you spend to keep you, you have to pay. Why are the salaries of some R&D personnel in Ali and Tencent so high? Not only because they are extremely irreplaceable.

2 boss or person in charge

When you are in the role of boss or person in charge, of course, you should try to prevent your people from dominating the family. Two or three people can be set up in equally important positions, which can balance each other.

In addition, important positions must be planned early to train future successors. The more candidates you have, the more initiative you have as a boss.

Of course, if your restaurant knows its own management and is good at cooking, you are not afraid of being threatened by the chef. In fact, such a perfect state is not so easy to achieve. As the person in charge, as long as you know more about planning than the' chef', you are not afraid of being passive.

The above is the concept of chef effect and the handling methods of different roles. In fact, a chef can also be compared to someone who has more resources and skills in life or work. If you master the coping methods, you can better grasp the initiative.
