4 advice from Japanese business-consultant Kenichi omae
1. No right or wrong answers!A distinctive feature of today's world is the fact that correct answers do not exist. Nobody knows the right answer. No one knows how to organize a business is only more or less successful attempts. Therefore, a new, important ability is the ability to give original answers. The answers, which are not thought of anyone else.
The point here is that your way of thinking is unique. In addition, you possess the courage and desire to act — this is what is valued. Valued the ability to think, analyze and build insights. In real life, knowing the answers is useless, you have to build hypotheses, to prove their right to life and to act in accordance with the developed model, embodying it in life.
2. The main thing — people!Among all resources, the most important is human. Take for example Japan. Japan is an island country which lacks natural resources — coal, oil, ask anything — in Japan it is not. But it has good people.
120 million good people who have created a miracle, creating the second strongest economy in the world. The same is possible in your company. The company may not be enough production capacity, resources, or markets, but if a company has good people — they will remove all obstacles on its path to prosperity.
3. Think like a boss!I always recommend to put yourself in the place of the chief, instead of criticize his actions. This can lead to unexpected conclusions.
Think for example what would you do if you were in the place of CEO of Yahoo. Most will answer — it's not my business to decide whether he should sell search engine to Microsoft and so on. No. Think about it. How would you have done? What would you do if you were Director of General Motors?
This method is good for solving other people's problems. It is much easier to give advice than to manage the company. If it comes to you or your own company, come to the correct decision will be much harder.But when you think about home business, chances of success increase. If you do this operation 20 times, when it comes down to your own company, you will cope with the task much better.
Try to conduct these exercises as soon as you have at least a couple hours of free time.
4. Creativity makes money!Creative thinking brings a lot of revenue today. For example, the Pokemon brings fantastic profit Nintendo, being a figment of the imagination of just one person. Or design of Japanese cars, which means they sell so well in China. All of this is the use of creative thinking. Today it is necessary to develop as never before.
Have you heard about this artist, Katsushika Hokusai? He founded a new genre in the visual arts — have been preserved. The subjects of his paintings are unreal, his vision of the world radically different from mine that stimulates the birth of new ideas. And people like him, a lot: Phil knight — founder of Nike. Steve jobs — founder of Apple. Filmmaker Akura Kurosawa. But the greatest in this list, I think of Walt Disney.published
P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
