Prominence: Work Style Construction

The Party's work style refers to the consistent attitude and behavior of the Party organization and party member in their work. The party's work style is an external manifestation, and its essence reflects party spirit and world outlook.

whether in the revolutionary war years or in the period of socialist construction and reform and opening up, our party pays great attention to the construction of the party's work style. At present, the outstanding problems in the party's work style are formalism and bureaucracy that are divorced from reality and the masses. Formalism and bureaucracy have become chronic diseases in the construction of the Party's work style. On the one hand, their root causes are the incorrect attitude of cadres in party member, and on the other hand, they are mainly influenced by the leadership style and working style dominated by administrative orders formed under the traditional planned economy system. In the process of reform and opening up, it has become a very urgent task for leaders at all levels to cultivate a new work style that adapts to the new characteristics of the times and the development of the socialist market economy. The report of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that to strengthen and improve the construction of the Party's work style, we should "focus on solving outstanding problems in the Party's ideological style, study style, work style, leadership style and cadres' life style, especially to prevent and overcome formalism and bureaucracy." To solve the external image problem of work style, we must first start with the internal determinants. The most fundamental thing is to strengthen party member's party spirit cultivation and world outlook construction. Adhere to the mass viewpoint and mass line, and always maintain the flesh-and-blood ties between the party and the masses. Resolutely oppose formalism and bureaucracy, and truly realize that power is used by the people, feelings are tied to the people, and benefits are sought by the people. Secondly, we must do a good job in the system reform that is compatible with the construction of work style. This requires the establishment of a new scientific leadership system and working mechanism, the reform of the cadre system, especially the appointment system and assessment system of cadres, and the improvement and perfection of the supervision mechanism of cadres.

Objection: formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance

Formalism is mainly about knowing and doing things differently, not seeking practical results, meeting mountains and rivers, pretending to be vain, and practicing fraud. Some people don't seriously study the Party's theory and the knowledge they need to do a good job. What they have learned is just to cope with the situation, and they just skim the water, try a little, don't ask for a very good understanding, and have no intention or ability to apply it seriously in practice. Some people are used to implementing meetings by meetings and documents by documents. They are keen to create momentum and show off. They regard arranging leaders to make speeches, organizing news and appearing on TV as the top priority, but in the end the work is gone. Some people don't pay attention to practical results, don't make efforts to solve existing contradictions and problems, don't do things that are difficult to impress leaders, don't do things that don't have much impact, don't do things that don't look beautiful in work reports or year-end summaries, ceremony after ceremony, summary after summary, awards after awards, and finally they are all "empty." Some people go down to the grass-roots level for a cursory survey, just to show their faces, sit in the car and look through the glass, only looking at the "facade" and "window", but not at the "backyard" and "corner". The masses say it is "investigating and studying the interlayer paper, and the policy implementation is separated from the mountain". Some knowingly report false situations, false figures and false models, but they let it go, and even whitewash the peace by digging their brains to make fakes.

the key to bureaucracy is to be divorced from reality, from the masses, to be aloof, to ignore reality, to be self-centered and self-expanding. The main manifestations are: high above, divorced from the masses, weak sense of public servants, indifferent feelings of the masses; Running officials and officials, cronyism; Be eager for quick success and instant benefit, be fond of great success, ignore the overall situation, ignore the long term, pay no attention to basic work, but be eager to make achievements, and be keen on "image project" that wastes people and money and "achievement project" that is divorced from reality; Irresponsible, dare not take responsibility, treat the superior deployment, take it out of context, implement the superior decision, and copy it mechanically; Eat and get what you want, compete with the people for profits, departmentalize public interests and personalize departmental power; Duplicity, lax discipline, orders that can't be done, prohibitions that don't stop, regarding regulations as nothing, making the system exist in name only.

hedonistic spirit is slack, not enterprising, pursuing fame and profit, coveting enjoyment, paying attention to ostentation and extravagance, playing with the wind prevailing. Some people are depressed, their beliefs are shaken, and they follow the philosophy of "eat, drink, and be merry" and "oh, let a man of spirit venture where he pleases". Some pursue material comforts, are vulgar in taste, are bored with playthings, indulge in debauchery, are keen on feasting and debauchery. Some people are afraid of the heavy, content with the status quo, unwilling to work hard, satisfied with the existing knowledge and opinions, intoxicated with the achievements they have made, not setting new goals, lacking new motivation, "crossing your legs in tea newspapers, chatting and watching."

The extravagant wind is extravagant and extravagant, with large-scale construction and festivals, luxurious life, arrogance and extravagance, and even abuse power for personal gain and corruption. Some build luxurious office buildings, even covering an area of hundreds of acres and costing hundreds of millions, making them magnificent, eating, drinking and having fun. Some people are keen on making festivals, and festivals are rampant, spending millions and tens of millions at every turn, wasting people and money! Some people are keen on personal enjoyment, housing is numerous, cars are luxurious, dishes are exquisite, and they pay attention to famous brands. They are always too comfortable with the life treatment beyond the regulations. Some require super-standard reception, staying in high-end hotels, eating delicacies, drinking fine wine and wine, and even "meaning" after the intertwined. Some have valuable membership cards and spending cards in their pockets, enjoying themselves in high-end clubs, lingering in high-end sports venues, singing songs at night among famous mountains and beautiful waters, leading a drunken life in exotic customs, and some even spend money in overseas gambling places! Some people are unruly in style, even morally corrupt and lead a dissolute life. They are not ashamed, but proud.

General requirements: look in the mirror, dress properly, take a bath, and treat diseases

Looking in the mirror is mainly based on party constitution, with reference to the party's discipline, the expectations of the masses, advanced models, and the requirements for improving the style of work, putting questions, finding gaps, and pointing out the direction in terms of purpose awareness, work style, honesty and self-discipline. The mirror can look at yourself or others, this time mainly at yourself. In real life, some comrades always feel good about themselves and are too lazy to look in the mirror; Some comrades know that they have problems and are afraid to look in the mirror; Some comrades only want to see their bright side and are used to looking in the mirror after makeup; Other comrades like to look at others in the mirror, thinking that they are extremely beautiful and they are all ugly. These phenomena are not in line with the cultivation of the * * * producers. Party member and cadres should dare to look in the mirror, and look in the mirror frequently. Especially, they should look in the depths and details of shortcomings and mistakes, so that they can be seen in detail. Only in this way can we find out the gap, cultivate one's morality and correct oneself.

dressing properly is mainly based on looking in the mirror, in accordance with the requirements of being pragmatic and honest for the people, bravely facing up to shortcomings and deficiencies, being strict with the party's discipline, especially political discipline, daring to touch thoughts, face up to contradictions and problems, starting from oneself, behaving correctly, consciously rectifying the party spirit, rationalizing the obligations of party members, tightening the party discipline and state law, and maintaining a good image of * * * producers. Dressing is often not enough once a day, and it is necessary to "save myself three times a day." It takes courage to face up to and solve your own problems, but it is the most active. "Disasters often accumulate in small amounts, while wisdom and courage are trapped in drowning." Cultivating the habit of being diligent and dressing properly can achieve the effect of preventing micro-duration, and can effectively avoid "accumulating feathers and sinking boats".

Taking a bath is mainly to carry out criticism and self-criticism in the spirit of rectification, deeply analyze the causes of problems, and clean the dust of thoughts and behaviors. It is necessary to solve practical problems, but also ideological problems, and maintain the political nature of the * * * party members. People are exposed to dust every day, so take a bath often, put some soap on it, rub it with shredded melon pulp, rinse it with water, and you will be refreshed. Similarly, our thoughts and behaviors will be stained with dust and attacked by political microorganisms, so we also need to "take a bath", which not only removes dust and mud, relaxes our body and mind, but also relaxes our pores and promotes metabolism, so as to do things cleanly and be a clean person. Some people always want to hide the dust on their thoughts and behaviors and are unwilling to "take a bath". Comrades and organizations should help such people "take a bath".

Treatment and cure mainly means adhering to the policy of "learning from the past" and "saving lives by curing diseases", distinguishing situations and giving the right medicine, educating and reminding party member and cadres who have problems in work style, investigating and dealing with serious problems, and carrying out special treatment on unhealthy trends and outstanding problems. If there is something wrong with people's health, they need to see a doctor, take injections and take medicine, and if they are heavy, they need surgery. If there is something wrong with people's thinking and style of work, we must also pay close attention to it. If you are afraid of medical treatment, a minor illness may drag on to a serious illness, from the disease in the epidermis to the terminally ill, and there is no cure in the end. As the saying goes, "it is easy to ban the micro, but it is difficult to save the last one." Party organizations at all levels should take effective measures to help party member and cadres who have problems identify "symptoms" and prescribe the right medicine. Those who should take Chinese medicine should take Chinese medicine, those who should take western medicine should take western medicine, or combine traditional Chinese and western medicine. The operation should effectively reflect the requirements of strictly administering the party.
