Why do you say 'the high-level is not ruthless, the middle-level is not bad, and the three armies are exhausted'?

Xiao Liu, who had just become a middle-level manager, met the boss in the company cafeteria. When chatting with the boss, the boss said meaningfully: "The high-level is not cruel, the middle-level is not bad, the three armies are exhausted!" At that time, I didn't understand what the boss was about. mean. I don't know if what the boss said is reasonable. Xiao Liu was very puzzled. Want to know the answer.

Maybe many people see such a sentence and think it is complete nonsense. It is strange that such a ruthless and bad person manages and does not bring down the company and make it stinky. Thinking that this is the dross of feudal management thinking, I feel that Xiao Liu is really unlucky when he encounters such a boss. These views are also shared by many professionals.

Those who hold the above ideas, at first glance, have no experience in management and do not know how to manage.

Why do you say "the high-level is not ruthless, the middle-level is not bad, and the three armies are exhausted"? The truth is crueler

01

Why should the top be ruthless?

The view that high-level leaders should be ruthless is correct. Many people do not understand why they need to be ruthless as high-level leaders. Can such a person manage a company well?

It is precisely only "ruthless" people who can manage a company well. Ruthless here does not mean that people are bad, but rational. At critical moments, they can sacrifice small interests in exchange for large interests, and sacrifice immediate interests in exchange for long-term interests.

For example, the company has an employee A who is dedicated to the company, but the company has a problem and needs to fire some employees. As a company executive, you know that A has just bought a house this year and needs to pay off the mortgage. Parents also need medical expenses, and children need Pay tuition, but dismissing A at this time can solve the company's current predicament and help the company survive. At this time, do you dismiss A or not?

If you, as a high-level executive, are not ruthless and do not dismiss A, then you may face the collapse of the company, and more people like A will lose their jobs.

When facing problems as a high-level person, we must be rational, and rationality is not mixed with emotions, that is, ruthless, and ruthlessness is ruthless in the eyes of ordinary people.

A high-level, if irrational, will inevitably be influenced by emotions, thus making wrong judgments and causing greater losses.

02

Why is the middle layer bad?

The meaning of the middle-level bad is actually for the grass-roots employees. As a middle management, what you need to do is to implement the decisions of the top, rather than bargaining with the top for the interests of the grassroots. If so, then the company must have no future.

Middle-level employees must learn to coax, scold, and rush grass-roots employees to do things. In order to implement high-level decisions, it is a pity to sacrifice the interests of lower-level employees. If the middle level can't do this, then it is not a qualified middle level, and the execution of the company will go wrong.

If the middle-level managers cannot implement high-level decisions, then the company management will be chaotic, and everyone will be like a headless fly, unable to find the goal and direction, then the employees will find that they will be very tired and work a lot every day, but it will be ineffective.

Can't stand at the grassroots level to see the problem

We cannot look at problems from the grassroots level. We must look at problems from the perspective of leaders in order to discover the rationality and correctness, and to find the way to promotion.

People in the workplace need to get rid of their emotions. After being rational, promotion is no longer difficult.
