It's not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable
Recently, Lao Wang heard many people complain that reliable employees are becoming more and more difficult to find. Because they understand that reliability means strong ability, cheapness, and obedience, they find that reliable employees are becoming more and more difficult to find. Lao Wang wants to say that it is not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable.
Why does Lao Wang say, "It's not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable yourself"? The reason is:
It's not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable
- Things gather people by groups. Lao Wang has always believed that only reliable people can attract more reliable people. Just like a company has just received the angel round of financing, it has committed all 15% of the company's option pool to employees, which leads to the company's future introduction of talents, if you want to get the founder's promise, you have to find a way to take the previous To the option of the employee to kill, to the new employee, and so on. Therefore, founders who think like this are inherently unreliable, and they can attract reliable people to join, and that is called a strange thing.
You may ask, if the employee is fired, can the option not be realized? Lao Wang tells you that the exercise of options is generally conditional. As long as you violate any other terms, you may go out of the house. Also, founders like this don't give you options, they give you a relatively cheap price. Don't forget, even if the price is relatively cheap, if you want to exercise the option, you must first take out the money before you can exercise the option. Even if you exercise the option and the company has no money, it is no use; or you simply can't get the money to exercise the option. . So, if the founder is unreliable, how can you attract reliable employees?
- There are few people who are obedient, capable, and cheap, but there are. Lao Wang wants to say why people are willing to follow you.
As Lao Wang's article said a few days ago, you always like to recruit people with a salary of 3,000 yuan to solve the company's 10,000-yuan problem. Is it possible? Can they fix it?
You will also say that many employees are now worth 2,000 yuan. He insisted on a salary of 3,000 yuan. In the end, the problem of 1,500 yuan could not be solved. The company wasted money. There are many people with this kind of thinking, but Lao Wang believes that it is this kind of thinking that causes your business to fail.
It's not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable
Why would the king say that? It's because you don't know how to identify and judge talents at all. You use this wrong theory of not identifying and judging talents to free yourself and make excuses for yourself. A good company will not recruit people who are already worth 2,000 yuan. He insists on a salary of 3,000 yuan, but cannot do a job worth 1,500 yuan. A good company has strict controls when it comes to recruiting talents, and they will be better than lacking. , go on your own.
- Do not pay attention to the needs of employees, but only pay attention to the cost of your own company, resulting in reliable employees getting farther and farther away from you, and unreliable employees constantly moving closer to you. Some time ago, Lao Wang lost his mobile phone and was planning to buy a mobile phone. Lao Wang was thinking, should he buy a cost-effective mobile phone, or should he buy a mobile phone that Lao Wang really likes and fits his temperament? You may say that you are so perverted, it is so troublesome to buy a broken mobile phone. Haha, yes, Lao Wang thinks that buying a mobile phone and recruiting employees is the same thing. The so-called high cost performance is actually cheap and easy to use, but it may not be satisfactory. The price/performance ratio of a good mobile phone is really not cost-effective, and the cheap mobile phone does not meet the temperament of Lao Wang. I really feel that mobile phones are becoming more and more difficult to buy. In the end, Lao Wang decided that buying a mobile phone should not only be cheap, but reliable, even if it is a little more expensive. In this way, Lao Wang gave up the cost-effectiveness and bought a satisfactory mobile phone.
After Lao Wang bought a mobile phone, he was thinking about a problem. When buying a mobile phone, he should not only consider the cost-effectiveness, but also consider a mobile phone that is reliable and easy to use. Recruitment is the same, you can't find cheap people, you need to find reliable people. Don't forget, reliable people can never be defined by cheap. Therefore, when Lao Wang is recruiting people, even if it is a part-time employee, the first consideration is whether the other party recognizes and sincerely recognizes what Lao Wang has done. This point can be fully confirmed and verified in the interview; secondly, consider the perception of the personnel and the ability to solve practical problems. For example, when Lao Wang writes something very clear, you have to keep asking some random questions. This can only mean that you are not suitable for Lao Wang, and your understanding is too poor; in the end, Lao Wang will give treatment, benefits and other extra rewards according to the needs of the staff, and will never fool any employees, because if you fool the employees, the employees will fool you. . In this way, reliable people will move closer to Pharaoh, so why worry about failure.
It's not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable
Therefore, Lao Wang wants to say that it is becoming more and more difficult to find unreliable employees because your plane tree itself is unreliable and fake. How can you attract a reliable golden phoenix? Bullshit.
Before Lao Wang gives a solution, we must first understand, what kind of employee is a reliable employee? If this is not clearly defined, it is impossible to answer this question at all, or the answer is just nonsense.
So what kind of people are reliable employees? The king thinks,
Good character, high comprehension, in-place understanding, strong execution and not reckless, not bragging, sincere, down-to-earth, and able to solve the actual problems of the enterprise.
Everything has an explanation, everything has its fall, and everything has an echo.
Can create value for the enterprise. In layman's terms, it can help businesses make money.
Employees who meet the above three points are reliable employees. But Lao Wang wants to say that these reliable employees will not be cheap, and they will never sell themselves cheaply.
However, when employees can meet the above three points, can the boss be a reliable boss? Only when the boss is reliable will he not say that the employees are unreliable. According to Lao Wang's observation of the workplace, it is not difficult for us to make such a judgment: if the boss is reliable, the recruiter is generally also reliable. But the key is how the boss chooses people.
It's not that reliable employees are getting harder and harder to find, but that you are not reliable
Just like the boss of a company complaining that his assistant did not do his job well, his assistant said: "You give me 3,000 yuan salary, what else can I do?" In response to these, Lao Wang believes that the responsibility really lies with the employees. , but the boss. The reasons are as follows:
When some bosses are recruiting, they only want to use people with a salary of 3,000 yuan to do 10,000 yuan of work. This is inappropriate. A person with a salary of 3,000 yuan will definitely not be able to do the work of a person with a salary of 10,000 yuan. The boss has too high expectations for people, and the positioning is wrong. In the workplace, people with a monthly salary of 3,000 have the ability, knowledge, and standards, but those with a monthly salary of 10,000 cannot meet the qualities that a person with a monthly salary of 10,000 should have. If the boss stays in this way of thinking, the problem is: he is not satisfied with the employees, it is very difficult for the employees to advance their work, and they will have opinions on the boss, and finally the employees have to change jobs or even leave. Therefore, Lao Wang suggested that the bosses enlarge the pattern and are willing to spend money to find reliable people to work. In this way, the employees do not have to work hard, and the boss feels comfortable using the employees.
The boss's judgment on people is wrong, and he will not really identify a person with development prospects. An employee with development prospects will show a strong sense of learning and learning ability, as well as self-motivation. Some companies will spend 3,000 yuan to recruit a potential person, and then after a period of training in the company, their skills will be improved, and eventually they will reach the level of an employee with a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan.
The boss must understand a truth: if you want the horse to run, you must give the horse grass. Some bosses know this very well. An employee of a company, Ms. A, is 29 years old and works in finance. She said that when she changed jobs, she held offers from several companies. With her ability, the salary level of the jobs she could find was not much different, so she decided to come I am in this company now because the company has good benefits and knows how to be sympathetic to its employees. It has its own special canteen, and three meals a day are clean, hygienic and nutritionally balanced. In addition to the holiday fee, there is also one day of aunt leave every month, which is so sweet!
As a boss, don't complain that your employees are unreliable, but complain that you don't want to spend money to recruit reliable people. If the boss is reliable, the probability of recruiting reliable employees will be greatly increased. Under the leadership of a reliable boss, unreliable employees will soon be eliminated. Therefore, if you want the horse to run, you must give the horse good grass.
