Chapter 113 Interaction Part 1
Among the two different identities of general and soldier, Sun Wu understood the former.Although he has never been a soldier, he can judge others with his own heart and knows the secrets of interacting with his subordinates: to be in the leadership position, one needs to have the charm to attract people's hearts, one needs to have the insight to know people and be subtle, and one needs to choose people Ren Shi's intelligence also needs to have the appeal of the same desire...

This is how a general is made
The husband and general are the assistants of the country. If they assist Zhou, the country will be strong, and if they assist Zhou, the country will be weak.

Since the creation of society, leaders have also been born: the leader of the state owns the country, the general of the army has the general of the army, and the head of the family.The role of a leader is like the eyes to a person. If you can't see the direction, the other parts of the body will not be able to coordinate well. Not only can you not find the right direction, but even the efforts you have made will go to waste.Therefore, Sun Wuhui clearly stated in his Art of War: "The general is the assistant of the country." As he said, in ancient history, there must have been a wise monarch in a peaceful and prosperous age, and there must be a leader in the invincible team. Fang's general.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes fought in chaos.Zhao Kuo, the son of Zhao She, the famous general of Zhao State, was familiar with military books since he was a child, but because he had no combat experience, he was used by someone with a heart to replace Lian Po and become the general who attacked Qin.When the new official took office, Zhao Kuo listed all kinds of attack strategies in the military book, and finally chose to call out all Zhao's more than 40 troops, hoping to attack Qin in one fell swoop.But the opponent was Bai Qi who used soldiers like a god, Zhao Kuozhong was killed, Zhao Jun was buried alive, and Zhao Guo weakened from then on.

As a general, Zhao Kuo dragged down the entire Zhao country because of his talk on paper, which shows the importance of a general.The ancients said: Capture the thief before capturing the king. The general has a great relationship with the victory or defeat of the war. Similarly, the leadership is closely related to the success of the team.Therefore, as a leader, one must have the corresponding quality and demeanor. Sun Wu's requirements for the leaders of the team are: "Generals should be wise, trustworthy, benevolent, brave, and strict." I am a cultivated person.

Temperance, not eating enough, drinking not drunk; reticent, words must be beneficial to others and oneself, avoid empty talk; orderly life, so that you can easily enter the state; determination, determination is courage; frugal, use money appropriately, refrain from wasting, not Do things that "make money in ways that harm your conscience, and spend money in ways that harm your health"; be diligent, do not waste time, and do what you need to do; Obligation; moderation, avoid extremes and inadequacies; cleanliness, let yourself beautify with the environment; calm, don't panic because of anything; chastity, for the health of yourself and your partner and the happiness of your children, control your sexual desires, and sexuality. ; Modesty, imitating Socrates, the greater the more humble.

The second is to become a confident leader, just like Sun Wu trained the maids, even in the face of King Wu's orders, he can still firmly believe in his decision, and say the heroic words of "the general will be in the army, and the king's life will not be tolerated".

People's biggest weakness is lack of self-confidence.This weakness can be overcome, and you can turn shrinking into courage by relying on the principle of autosuggestion.The application of this principle can be accomplished with a very simple arrangement: write down your positive thought impulses, read them aloud, and recite them over and over again until they become part of your subconscious mind.

Finally, use the system to manage people.

Without a perfect system, or not being good at using the system, the work cannot be carried out.Sun Wu once said to the King of Wu specifically: "Orders and prohibitions, clear rewards and punishments, this is the common law of military strategists, and the general rule for generals to govern the army. You must be dignified to the soldiers. Only in this way will they obey orders and fight to defeat the enemy."

As a leader, you should pay great attention to the construction of the work system.Working out the work guidelines that everyone abides by and based on not only ensures the correct norms of people's actions, but also helps mobilize and develop people's enthusiasm.

The most important aspect of a leader's quality is the art of managing people.

The art of managing is a way of exerting influence over others beyond the routine of following directions and orders.The art of managing people is an act that enables people to act or respond to a common goal.The art of managing people is the key driving force to promote and coordinate an organization to achieve its goals.The art of managing people is the ability to develop the confidence and support of the people needed to achieve the goals of the entire organization.

A leader who is skilled at encouraging, persuading, and influencing others can spearhead beneficial change.On the journey of leading the team to a higher peak, you should have a group of supporters who trust you, support you and believe in a goal.This is what the art of managing people really means.

As a leader, although you need to face emergencies from time to time, you must be calm and take care of yourself.Only in this way can people in the team avoid panic, and avoid the danger of being "captured by the enemy" by the opponent.
