1.1 a model to help you find the real love of work
- 1. a model to help you find the real love of work
Master the iceberg model usage, can use it to analyze their matching with the work, to make the right career choice, and to be able to find exactly what they like and rewarding work.
"I feel I am not currently working condition most wanted, doing okay, but there is not much sense of accomplishment, I do not know the future what will happen ...... want to have a real love and promising work, but not know what to do, I feel very confused. "
This passage, either our present state, either have had the condition.
Just work and do not like want to change careers, to find new jobs incompetence want to improve, middle-aged people to find the ceiling of this work, etc., are the norm. Because we have expectations of their careers, but the moment the work may not carry such expectations, you will feel " not like " " very confused " .
However, the "dislike" "very confused" is just a mood, emotional reasons behind what is it? We like, and a job Where is the future in it? This lesson, I introduce you to a model, and then use it to help you make career choices and positioning, so you no longer confused.
This model is called iceberg model, you may have heard, but I will briefly explain and then tell you what the magical effect of this model, make good use of it, more than you can solve almost half of the learning and development issues.
Iceberg model is a famous American psychologist麦克利兰提out, it comprehensively describes the elements of a person's individual qualities, that is to say, you is not matched with a job, how to match the degree of how much the market value of salaries, are this model can explain almost all the big companies will use it for recruitment and training.
The first part, knowledge and skills
Iceberg model from top to bottom there are a lot of features, feature the top is the knowledge and skills.
Knowledge is the knowledge and experience we gain in learning and practice, such as financial knowledge, human resources, knowledge and so on, including iceberg model we now learn, also belong to knowledge. This university is with you professional, always read the book, the work, hobby or even have a relationship.
Skills means you have a particular expertise, such as cycling, programming, using Excel and so on.
A person's knowledge and skills can be acquired but is also very explicit, easy to see out of. Therefore, we call on the part of the iceberg.
What is the relationship between knowledge and skills with work is it? In simple terms, if there are a lot of strange contents of your work, that have a great amount of information every day, receiving too late, to feel panic and anxiety, it is likely that your knowledge and skills do not match with the job. But this is not a big problem, because the knowledge and skills more easily filled, the class, read a book, with senior colleagues to learn, you can upgrade over time.
The second part, capability
The middle of the iceberg model element is the ability, or the ability to call general, such as learning and thinking skills, interpersonal skills and so on. The relative knowledge and skills, the ability to not tell at a glance the level of. For example, a person's ability to innovate in the end how, is difficult to use a certificate, a few topics to study, but need to see his behavior in dealing with the many problems when.
Ability with knowledge and skills biggest difference is: the knowledge and skills belong to a particular area, and the ability to be more common areas. For example, the knowledge will be divided into finance, human resources, finance and so on, but "innovation" this ability, is applicable to any field, once mastered, is the ability to migrate.
So, if the capacity does not match, the job will happen then? Efficiency, low efficiency of communication, face complex problems can not start, the lack of a sense of accomplishment, powerless. Cultivate the ability of a relatively long period, generally a few months time, we will talk about later sections method.
The third part, values, character, motivation
The bottom tip of the model include values, personality traits, motivation. These factors are difficult to change in adulthood , they will be affected by genetic, family education, childhood experiences and so on. A brief introduction to the various elements:
Values are the standards you judge things , for example, when you are choosing a career, freedom and stability had a conflict, which you choose, which give up; when career and family conflict, how you deal with, and so on. If you are often caught in the tangle of contradictions and work hard to do things from the heart to agree, is probably not match the values , such as you do from the media, the company is to make money so that you write some vulgar content, but you I think that there is no value to the user.
Personality traits are personal behavioral preferences , for example, you are partial introverted or extroverted, more concerned about the macro and detail, and so on. If you find work, it seems to work is not very big, but feel tired heart, most likely not match the character . For example, you are introverted person, is to obtain energy from solitude, but you do have a constant communication with strangers every day work.
As for motivation, in fact, have a lot of motivation classification, the most common is McClelland's theory, divided into achievement motivation, motive power and affinity motivation. Achievement motivation, like the challenge; motive power of people, hoping to influence others; and affinity motivation of people, want to maintain a better team relationships. If you feel there is no power, not to mention greedily to work, it is probably present job does not match with your motivation , for example, you are obviously a sense of achievement motivation, like some challenges, but your work was highly repetitive.
Well, we finished the whole iceberg model, now you know, work with your partner is the same, " matching " than " good " is important , and you match elements with a job, in fact, elements of the iceberg model. So, we feel not like a job, there may be a lack of knowledge and skills leading to confusion and anxiety, the lack of ability to lead to frustration and inefficiency, values do not match the lead to contradictions and tangled, motivations mismatch caused no enthusiasm, or character does not match the characteristics of the heart caused by tired.
Moreover, the hidden elements of all matching elements inside the bottom of the iceberg play a greater role, like finding a partner, like, even though the surface looks similar conditions, but you just have feelings for a person without the other person, and this is hidden iceberg underlying factors at work.
So, knowing this model, you can analyze, and if they are not currently working very fond of, so in the end is where do not like.
Well, now we analyze an existing job if you like, so if I sell now, the findings do not like, do you want to switch to Internet operators, faced with such a strange job, I do not know whether they match, this time should be how to do it? Or, I do not like sales, but I face operators, product managers, market analysis, etc. may be interested in these positions, I do not know where to go a, how should we do? There are thousands of jobs in this world, we can not all do it over and then re-election.
In fact, very simple, you put the goal posts iceberg analysis model look on it.
Specifically how to do it? Divided into four steps:
The first step, first determine a position you want to analyze.
For example, you have a goal post, then it is simple, use this job to analyze that he is not match. But if you do not, you can start start their own experience, framed you can do several jobs, one by one analysis. Here to teach you a skill , like you do in an industry technical services, but do not like to work, want to change, you can not know what you can change, this time you can go to LinkedIn and so this type of recruitment platform to search , it is found that technical service industry jobs, and then a bunch of people will come out, you see these people resume to see if they were later gone, you know the potential direction . Moreover, this method can also help you determine the future of this industry and you're going to post, in the end there is no future , those who do the original job, and what is behind the way yes.
The second step, on job sites, search recruitment requirements of this post.
At this time, you will be found to many companies hiring requirements for this post to find out several different recruitment needs. Because different companies have their own subdivision requirements, in order to extract the common requirements, you can look at several possible to find commonalities.
The third step, in accordance with the iceberg model, a comprehensive analysis of these recruitment needs.
You will find that hiring demand is basically in accordance with the iceberg model written to new media operations jobs, there are requirements for knowledge, such as communication studies or literature graduate, knowledge of content marketing, and become familiar with new media platforms; there skills requirements, such as the number of proficient public publishing tools; there are requirements for capacity, such as copy writing ability, users thinking, learning ability, and so on; Finally, there on personality traits, motivation, etc. requirements, such as care, love challenges and so on. They are lumped together, you can get this job in the demand model.
The fourth step, according to job demand model, compared with their own.
Job demand model has come out, so that they can control what, in the end is not in line with their own, whether they should change jobs or change jobs. Of course, it is difficult to find an exact match of the work, if it is the tip of the underlying factors that do not match, it is not recommended to choose this career, because these elements are very difficult to change the day after tomorrow; but if it is the knowledge, skills do not match, not necessarily the election, because most of the knowledge and skills are acquired they can learn , just to see if you are willing to invest the time Bale.
We usually look for a job, mostly to see the tip of the surface, such as duties, payroll, office environment, education, profession, among other factors, may ultimately you can not do the job, whether there is a sense of accomplishment, in fact, a lot of hidden elements the decision, today's content, in fact, is to put your feelings about work to express out, it is broken down into your personality traits, motivation, values, thus avoiding the one we went to try and look like it or not.
I always think, thoroughly understand , " I should choose what kind of work " than " I should think of how to succeed in the good work of others inside " , is much more important . After all, you want to get yourself a sense of achievement and satisfaction, it should not be tied to someone else's scoreboard .
Well, today we talk about the iceberg model, you will find that it can be used not only in terms of career choices, it can also be used in many other areas , such as mentioned a little bit of partner selection, as well as children's education today, many parents the children reported a lot of training, but time is limited children, so what courses should choose? It is to teach the children words and songs back to back, or the development of curriculum thinking of it? If you know the iceberg model, I believe there will be an answer.
So, I want to tell you is that each methodology and model that we learned, not only to solve a problem , but hundreds or even thousands can solve the problem, Charlie Munger in "Poor Richard Collection," which mention to master the mental model of a certain amount of this world can solve 90% of problems . You will find that the same amount of knowledge, if you use knowledge to solve more problems, then your learning is the highest input and output ratio.
This is my learning philosophy, but also educational philosophy out of the loop . I hope that the six-day course, you do not just know some knowledge, but to cultivate a way of thinking, if so, this just six-day course, will achieve my purpose.
Well, as we said earlier, icebergs have a lot of role models, in addition to helping you match the job, in fact, it can be used to measure your market value, which is the salary . The company will be researched by resumes, interviewing candidates in case the performance of the various elements of the iceberg model, to determine each other's salaries.
I'll tell you: how to use iceberg model, let your market value rapidly. And why some posts threshold is high, but the ceiling is very low, while others look good job entrants, it is difficult to achieve top? See you tomorrow!
