These questions plague almost every college student. How should you choose?2008Year11month12日, Mr. Zhang Mingde, Vice President of Amway (China), gave the answer based on his own personal experience at the w88 casino, which is definitely beyond your expectation...
There is no standard answer in the workplace
2008Year11month12日, the "Amway Sunshine Seedling Project" entry event on campus was held at the w88 casino, and the lecture hall of Ningyuan Building was packed with seats. The speaker, Mr. Zhang Mingde, is the vice president of Amway (China). He moved from the Amway Taiwan market to the mainland and is responsible for the Amway North and Southwest markets. Mr. Zhang Mingde, who has experienced various speech scenes for many years, shared his career and life experience with the students present without reservation. The wonderful and humorous speeches set off climaxes again and again.
Zhang’s workplace quotes
l Success is getting what you love, happiness is loving what you get.
l There are no standard answers in life, and neither are interviews.
l The stupidest employee is the one who hinders others even though he has not been promoted.
l Fun is more important than salary.
l You must do something that you can still remember when you are seventy or eighty years old.
l Enrollment5No one will care about your academic performance when you go to college.
l When you bring questions to your boss, you must also bring answers.
Zhang’s unique interview rules
I believe many people have been asked by the interviewer when they participated in the interview: How much do you know about the company? Why did you leave your original company? If you think that Mr. Zhang Mingde will also ask these "traditional questions", then you are totally wrong. As a senior executive of Amway Company, Mr. Zhang Mingde has "interviewed countless people" and introduced many talents to the company. He has his own way of interviewing new people:
l The most memorable thing I did when I was a student;
l The most precious gift in life;
l The most touching thing I have ever done to others;
l Do you think you have suffered the most or the most creative or crazy thing you have ever done;
l The one that has the greatest influence on your thoughts or personality3This book;
l Assuming that your parents are wealthy and there is no financial pressure after graduation, what major will you study in college;
l People who know you well have mentioned a shortcoming that you don’t realize you have.
"Through these questions, I can basically understand the applicant's personality and attitude towards work and life. I want to listen to the real voice and don't need those standard answers." Mr. Zhang Mingde revealed that he usually gives the applicant before the end of the interview30Seconds to make the final expression, "90%The person will say how eager he is to join our company. This should be the standard answer, right? But it goes without saying that I know this. There is no point for saying this. I want to hear something personalized, even if it is an evaluation of a certain decoration in the company. Otherwise, I will think that you are insensitive to everything, or have no observation skills, or do not have the courage to express..." Mr. Zhang Mingde hopes that college students know that there is no standard answer in life. "People like me come to give speeches just to give everyone a reference to find their own route. This is the most important thing. ”
Zhang Mingde also has a habit when interviewing others, that is, one-to-many. He interviews several people at the same time. After asking questions, he asks them to raise their hands to answer. The one who raises his hand first answers first, and raises his hand one after another. "If after three or four questions, you find someone If he is always the last to answer, he is either cunning or lacks self-confidence. He wants to listen to what others have to say before making his answer more perfect. I don’t want this kind of person; if he is always the first to answer, he is very energetic, energetic, and not afraid of making a fool of himself. I like this kind of college student.”
Which one would you choose, fun or salary?
Mr. Zhang Mingde has two daughters who are both talented and beautiful. Mr. Zhang spent a lot of effort to train them. In order to provide career guidance to college students, Mr. Zhang Mingde did not hesitate to share examples of his own precious daughters with everyone.
After my eldest daughter graduated from a famous business university in the United States, she had a job opportunity: driving a BMW around the United States, encouraging people in various cities in the United States to drive BMWs (not buy them, just drive them), every time they drove1milesYes1Donate US dollars to a charity. This job is "fancy" and interesting enough, but the salary is less than that of my classmates1/4. Want to go?
Mr. Zhang Mingde’s answer is: Go. As the saying goes, “Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.” In this way, the motorcade that my daughter was in stayed in one city for three or four days, and then went to the next city. Over the past year, she and her colleagues traveled all over the United States20Multiple states, experienced the customs and customs of most of the United States, drove all models of BMW cars, and also raised a considerable amount of money for charity.
The salary of the first job is less than that of classmates1/4, the second job’s salary is only that of classmates1/4, However, Mr. Zhang Mingde still supports his daughter. "If you encounter an interesting job, even if the salary is not high, you should go for it." According to this employment guideline, the end1In 2003, Zhang Mingde’s eldest daughter found a second job after “driving around in a BMW to raise funds”: promoting in the mainland marketVISA2008Olympic Card. Although the salary is lower this time, Zhang Mingde still encourages his daughter to try. He joked that he would ask his eldest daughter to get him some Olympic tickets to watch the game. Of course, the more important thing is to strive for such a rare work experience. "In the end, this girl still did itVISAThe sponsor representative sent by the company became the Olympic torch bearer, from Leshan, Sichuan04933768_33780
Do something you can still remember when you are seventy or eighty years old
Mr. Zhang Mingde is very happy that his daughter has such an interesting and rich work experience. He hopes that college students should not think about jumping into companies with high salaries, and should not spend all their time in the library when they are in w88 casino. Instead, they should do something that they can still remember when they are seventy or eighty years old.
"My eldest daughter participated in the w88 casino's bicycle rally when she was in college in the United States. This was a competition that was full of challenges for physical fitness and perseverance. She was the only Chinese participating. She trained for half a year, but her homework was affected to a certain extent and her grades dropped3.7Points dropped to3.3points (total score4points). But I told her that for newly graduated college students, in addition to looking at academic performance, the most important thing for companies to look at is your perseverance and character, and your grades in w88 casino are the key to employment5After the year, almost no one will care. ”
How to deal with the boss of a multinational company
In the eyes of multinational companies, good employees have many qualities: generosity, daring to tell the truth, courage, team spirit, innovation, humor, not naive, helpful, not afraid of hardship, etc. In Mr. Zhang Mingde’s view, innovation, generosity, communication, humor, never giving up, and professional ethics are the most important.
Without creativity, there is no way to innovate
Mr. Zhang Mingde told a short story: There was a blind man begging on Wall Street in the United States. The blind man wrote "I am blind", but there were very few people who gave him money. One person was very kind and said I could help you. He added a few words and it became: "Spring is here...but I am blind." Immediately many people gave him money. This is an innovation that expands understanding from rationality to emotion, allowing people to quickly develop sympathy.
How to communicate with the boss when entering a multinational enterprise
Keep your boss informed: As subordinates, we may sometimes mess up things and are afraid of being blamed by the boss, so we make a70%、80%Only tell your boss that a long time has passed and this approach is wrong. You must report it to your boss as soon as possible so that everyone can face this dilemma together. Because you are fighting in a team, when you receive honors, you must share them with your colleagues. When you are at risk, you must also ask your colleagues to help you. Because you are in the same boat.
Be straight forward: We Chinese like to be tactful when speaking. In multinational companies, we need to be straightforward. Sometimes my employees come in and talk to me a lot.5minutes,10minutes before telling me that there was a need for a project10Ten thousand yuan. When you enter your boss's office, first tell your boss the result; you tell him yes10He knows about the project worth ten thousand yuan immediately. If the boss is interested, he will continue to ask youWHY, because the boss has more experience than you, so if you tell him about this 100,000 yuan project, he can probably smell it with his nose whether the project is feasible. If it is not good, maybe30It’s over in seconds, take your time5Minutes are going in circles, which can only leave a bad impression on the boss. When communicating, the real purpose should be stated first, and do not let others guess.
Dadu: You must understand the principle of mutual support. Only by competing in cooperation can we all become stronger. "No one is ever wronged. Since it is unavoidable, why not resolve it more beautifully? Those who hold others back before being promoted are the stupidest employees." The colleagues around you must have advantages that you do not have, and he must be promoted because of some ability. "No matter who is the leader, support him with a professional spirit and professional attitude. This is a kind of generosity. Maybe the big boss will promote you after seeing this advantage in you."
Dare to tell the truth: "You must never report good news or bad news to your boss. You must communicate in a timely manner. One is to respect, and the other is to allow the boss to have more information and make favorable decisions and judgments. Only in this way can it be possible to turn 'worry' into 'good'."
About humor: "Humor can sometimes make a difference, but this cannot be brought by books, so college students must go out more during the winter and summer vacations to get in touch with society and gain wisdom."
Good employee standards: Zhang Mingde said a lot, but the two most important standards and advice he gave to the college students present were: "The career path is difficult and there is no sympathy, so everyone should arm themselves, grit their teeth and persevere, and never give up! Professional ethics are the basic requirements for people in the workplace. Don't let some petty gains ruin your bright future."
