Mr. Kazuo Inamori has made an insightful observation of three types: spontaneous combustion, ignition, and flame retardant. This helps us to better understand the behaviour and motivation of our employees and to adopt different management strategies according to different employees. In this article, we will discuss the characteristics of these three types of people in detail to help managers better manage them.
Let's start with a closer look at spontaneous combustion employees. As the name suggests, the spontaneous combustion type does not need to rely on external forces, they are like small suns that can burn by themselves. They have a high level of enthusiasm and dedication, and most of them are able to complete tasks ahead of schedule and with excellent quality. For enterprises, such employees are like a fresh spring in the desert, and their existence brings infinite vitality and innovation to the enterprise. It's easier to manage spontaneous combustion-type employees because they don't need to have much supervision over them. Just give them more challenges and opportunities to keep them enthusiastic and motivated.
Ignited employees are like matches, all it takes is a spark to ignite their inner passion. Their motivation to work often needs the help and encouragement of others to be stimulated. Although their sense of initiative is not strong, as long as they are properly guided and motivated, they can also devote themselves to work. Ignite employees need a leader who knows how to bring out the best in them. They can be a force worth cultivating in the business.
The last one is the flame-retardant employee. This kind of employee is more difficult to get done. No matter how much they motivate and communicate, they just can't ignite their enthusiasm for work. They are resistant to change like ceramics and have little motivation for work. They are like ceramic, resistant to change, and have very little enthusiasm and enthusiasm for their work. To manage this type of employee, managers need to be patient. Theyrs can affect the atmosphere and efficiency of the entire team. For these employees, companies need to take decisive steps to either help them change or find a job that is more suitable for them.
Understanding the personality type of employees is very important for business management. For spontaneous combustion employees, we want to make full use of their initiative and innovative ability;For ignited employees, we need to be good at stimulating their potential;For flame-retardant employees, we need to adjust our management strategies in a timely manner to help them find their own development path. Reasonable management and training can maximize the advantages of all kinds of employees, so as to achieve the long-term development of the enterprise. Thank you for your interest and we'll see you next time.
