41. What do you think of the different management theories and experiences in the West? (600 words)

Western management thinking is different

From the management point of view, China attaches importance to people's power, that man is the core of management, people-oriented, stressing that "Heaven", focusing on interpersonal and social. Western management emphasis on the character of management, the emphasis is on management, methods and means of the importance of taking a standardized mechanical management. In contrast, China's management style is more artistic, and flexible.

From the knowledge and attitude management, the Chinese heavy intuition, introspection heavy, heavy priori reason, the West re-test, the fact that the heavy weight of rational logic. China stressed that the "moral" "universal love" to Kiev to "the rule of law to the people." Western stressed that according to the scientific method to guide the work of the classical management theory is to implement the planning, organization, leadership, coordination and control.

On the management objectives, stressed the coordinating organization, the relationship between population, emphasize the overall coordination, the eventual establishment of "common ground" in the world, such as the Taoist "nature", "inaction", "Harmony" Thought of Confucianism; the West management culture and capitalist mode of production combined with the pursuit of profit and improve their efficiency as the goal, the pursuit of self-worth as a driving force. Schools such as behavioral science theory to motivate members of the organization as a means of management.

Western Management course there are differences, but in a lot of management thinking the same thing. In my opinion, not the best management methods, only the most suitable methods of management. Chinese cultural ideas and spiritual support is different from the West, we are not going to learn the spiritual content of the West, we can learn Western management experience, but we must learn from the experience of management in line with our national conditions. Full of rational tolerance, so that we can get more.

42. The greatest difficulty encountered in their work and their solutions

In the last two years of work I encounter the greatest difficulty is the thing that I most regret a thing. When I first started with the project team. Responsible for so and so's "a certain variety show" client development, as project leader, project leader, because of his lack of too insistent on their own ideas and management experience, leading the project had to be done in the form of overtime workers jobs. While opinionated able to fully show their point of view, improve work efficiency, but it sometimes makes me ignore the reasonable opinions of others, is not conducive to self-improvement and carry out the work.

At that time, a certain party need to present a relatively cool interaction effect, because time is running out, as the head of my well in advance planning and implementation of the project, and then the project team members to discuss improving. During the discussion, some members of my implementation is slightly different, they believe that the interaction effect is well implemented, but it would be more time-consuming and high technical difficulty, take some time to research and learn. And I think, in time-critical situations, we can existing technologies and the ability to realize the preliminary results, achieved despite the effect is not perfect, but it should also be able to meet the customer's initial requirements, we should ensure that products in cutoff normal delivery time can in subsequent iterations, under plenty of time to perfect again. And the timing is not allowed to re-plan, so I did not listen to the views of members, still follow the original plan. However, when initial results delivery, clients that are not very satisfied with the realization of the interaction effect, and also pay greater attention, in order not to delay the overall project on the line, I led the team had to rush through in the form of overtime, re-planning, final deliver satisfactory results.

After the end of the project, I reflect on their own issues, and project team members sincere apologies, it also made me deeply aware of the importance of good at listening to the views of others and teamwork. As a manager, not only have a strong ability to work, but also to be good employers and management team. On the one hand the collective wisdom is powerful, it can make up for lack of personal, work programs and make more perfect. On the other hand, allows team members to fully express their views, and to be sure, but also to mobilize the people's enthusiasm, improve work efficiency.

So after work, I have been trying to correct their deficiencies in this regard, before the start of the project, I will be by means of brainstorming, so that everyone involved in program planning. In carrying out the process, but also to keep abreast of the progress and effectiveness of project feedback, timely adjustment and improvement. In the usual work, I often exchange and team members to listen to their reasonable proposals to me.

I know that to be a good manager, in this regard, I need to be further improved, not only to be a good listener, but also know how rational thinking, the objective analysis of the views of others, combine to make their point of view to integrate science decisions. At the same time I still have many places to learn, so I hope that by learning MBA to further improve their abilities, and use them in future work, and constantly improve their management capacity and management level.

At the same time organize regular "daily stand-ups", listening to voices from the team of project work daily to report, summarize and report the status and progress of the project to the leadership.

For example, when I first with project teams, customers need to present a relatively unusual interaction effect, because time is running out, as the head of my well in advance planning and implementation of the project, and then the project team members to discuss improving. During the discussion, some members of my implementation is slightly different, they think they can achieve this effect is very good, but it would be more time-consuming and high technical difficulty, need to learn and research. And I think, in time-critical situations, we can existing technologies and the ability to realize the preliminary results, achieved despite the effect is not very perfect, but should be able to meet customer requirements, should first ensure that products in deadline normal delivery can be in subsequent iterations, under plenty of time to perfect again. So I did not listen to the views of the members. But in the time of delivery, clients that are not very satisfied with the interaction effect, and also pay greater attention to, so I finally had to delay line, crashing through the team's form, re-planning programs, and ultimately deliver satisfactory results.

After the end of the project, I reflect on their own issues, and project members sincere apologies, it also made me deeply aware of the importance of good at listening to the views of others and teamwork. So after work, I have been trying to correct their deficiencies in this regard, before the start of the project, I will be by means of brainstorming, so that everyone involved in program planning. In carrying out the process, but also to keep abreast of the progress and effectiveness of project feedback, timely adjustment and improvement. In the usual work, I often exchange and team members to listen to their reasonable proposals to me.

Responsible for so and so's "a certain variety show" client development, as project leader, project leader, because of his lack of too insistent on their own ideas and management experience, leading the project had to be done in the form of overtime workers jobs. While opinionated able to fully show their point of view, improve work efficiency, but it sometimes makes me ignore the reasonable opinions of others, is not conducive to self-improvement and carry out the work.

Better trained staff development, staff quality and expand their horizons and employees. And target planning and corporate strategy, effective combination of vision and operational staff together. Upgrade technology and quality of staff, in turn, become the company's core competitiveness. Even then I left the company, but the proposal has been retained.
