5 Why do I pay more attention to my work at 5 Study, read all day, listen to books every day, and often participate in training.
But when there are good things, I don’t have my share. I am the last one when I get promotion or salary increase.
Our leaders also agree with me. Many of the work that others do not do well is handed over to others and he is uneasy, and they are left to me to do it.
I am also well-connected, and my colleagues ask for leave if they have something to do, and their work is also entrusted to me.
How do you feel when you see this statement?
I believe that in every unit, there are several such people, and many people even think that they are such people:
has done a lot of work, and read a lot of books.But it was not taken seriously.
only look for him when he is alive, but most people think he is a " person who works ".
lectures in the book "Excellent Password: How to Become an Expert". To become a top master and expert in any field, in this long journey, whether has the opportunity to practice is one of the core factors_ span8span .
Participating in and leading large, complex, and difficult tasks is also a necessary condition for being able to be competent to master. If there is no such opportunity to solve routine problems, it will be difficult to accumulate comprehensive and systematic experience and experience. It is impossible to grasp the full picture of the entire profession and field, and it is not truly top level.
further said that only from complex and difficult practice can real innovation be possible. Only in the process of solving these tasks and completing such projects can there be opportunities to solve problems that have not been solved by the predecessors and improve the predecessors. The efficiency of finding a better way is the basis for becoming an expert.
One possible problem with the so-called people who do a lot of work is that they are doing repetitive, simple, and non-innovative tasks.Therefore, in the eyes of others, the value is not great, nor can it represent and show the individual's ability and level.
Furthermore, does not mean that you can become an expert as long as you have practical opportunities and work.
The situation that often exists is:
Under the same practical opportunity, some people do a lot, but in the eyes of a master or novice Skilled "operators" have even become more and more insignificant in everyone's eyes.
Because he can only work, but can't go beyond work!
Craftsmen can make beautiful works as required, but they will not consider creation and innovation from a higher level.
To become a master and expert, you must not only be able to work, but also consider the things that follow the work:
and the project, they also know about and the project. For this reason, they will think about the strategic value of tasks and projects, they can sum up better methods and ideas, and they will solve problems creatively.
02
Participating in practice can improve one’s level and ability.But this improvement is limited.
The real effective improvement lies in after completing the tasks and projects , is there any further thinking, summary, and refinement and improvement on the basis of personal experience to theorize personal experience? , To form reusable and reused patterns, models, structures, frameworks, models and other content in the future, and can guide the practice of others.
Those who eventually become operators lack the process of thinking, summarizing, refining and improving.
There is often a category of people. Because they have worked in large and well-known institutions, they look very powerful compared with ordinary people, because he may have participated in large and complex projects, or have seen Corresponding practice, this is often said to be well-informed.
But it is not really great to participate in or see these practices. The opportunity to practice only provides a possibility .
Among these people, most of them even participated in complex and difficult projects and tasks, but due to the lack of further summary and refinement, they did not theoretically improve and upgrade their own experience. ,Therefore, he can only do those projects and tasks that are particularly similar to his previous ones, and cannot start with slightly changed situations. Such people cannot yet become masters and experts.
is just like what many people say, "span8span , the only thing he is proud of in his life is to read the famous school ", but because there is no outstanding achievement in the later period, that famous school The "peak" of his life.
The British Renaissance philosopher Bacon said in his "On Knowledge":
If you want to look at the overall operation of the overall situation, you can only do it with knowledge."
From another perspective, if you want to make your experience universal, you must upgrade your personal experience. Only at the level of knowledge can we guide broader practice. People like
can use their name to fool those novices and competent people, because many people who don’t have the ability to distinguish will equate the cattle of this institution with those who have stayed in this institution, but When they meet real masters and experts, these people are counseled:
because a chat may reveal their shallowness.
03
In real life, we can also find that those real masters and experts may not do the most, but they may not Some of them are the fastest growing:
because they are not only satisfied with finishing work and completing tasks, but taking a small step forward than most people.
abstracts and theorizes the process of work, extracts and abstracts the regularity of tasks and projects, not only do they know why they do it, why they do it, and how they can do it. And is willing to distill these methods of doing things into templates, models, and frameworks as much as possible, and even actively pursue to make corresponding tools and products.
If you look at it from another perspective, the three levels of individual value enhancement (which are actually the levels required for managers and employees) are as follows. These three levels of ability correspond to different ranks and salaries:
The first level of ability: problem-solving.
If any organization hires a person, solving a problem is the most basic requirement. Inviting a person over must require this person to solve problems, complete tasks and projects.
Of course, the tasks and projects completed by this person are complicated and simple. The higher the level of people, the more complicated the problems and tasks that need to be solved. This is the most basic value for everyone Where.
Everyone must first cultivate their problem-solving skills, and be able to quickly analyze, accurately locate, and cleanly deal with problems when facing problems.
If you have this ability, you are a master at solving problems!
The second level of ability: refining methods to guide others.
In addition to solving the problem, it also needs to be able to extract solutions to the problem and be able to guide others to complete the work.
There used to be a saying, "If you can't train someone to replace you as a section chief, then you are too important. Be the section chief for a lifetime!"
strong The explicitness of your own experience and methods is the basic element to test the level of a person's level. If you can only do it but cannot say or write it, it means that you are still in the "necessary world" instead of the "free world".Explain that I still know it but I don't know why.
People who reach this level are already at the level of experts. They are not only good at doing but also have strong thinking skills, and are good at summarizing and refining.
Summarizing the results of the refinement can guide more people to solve problems, and is a master who is one step higher than the first level!
The third level of ability: find problems and take precautions.
can proactively find non-obvious problems, and can start to solve and optimize organizational problems.
found that the problem is the responsibility and ability of each expert and leader. This kind of talent can manage a department or an organization.
If you can solve the problem only when there is a problem, then you will always be " fire captain ", make up for it!
How to find and avoid problems, and eliminate them in the bud is a higher requirement. is also a requirement for leaders and leaders.
People at this level are already scarce. They can judge the priorities of things from the environment and the larger system, predict crises and opportunities from the beginning, and are masters at the highest level.
To sum up:
As an organization that pursues efficiency, they pay more attention to the results of your _strong strong and . potential that you can be competent for higher level work!
Only such a person can be considered to be a manufacturable and of greater value. As an individual, you should know what to do?
From a social point of view, is terrible is . Many people who only have lower-level abilities have occupied positions that require higher-level abilities in various ways.This is the question of "Can not coordinate with ", the result will be terrible, and everyone should feel this way recently.
