In today's corporate environment, we often hear about competence and background. Many people believe that as long as they have excellent abilities, they will be able to establish themselves in the business. However, in the real world, this is often not the case. In fact, most of the time, background is more important than ability.
First of all, we need to understand that in business, interpersonal relationships and background often determine a person's destiny. Promotion in many positions is not based on an individual's abilities and performance, but rather on who the person is, who they are related to, and what kind of background they have behind it. Sometimes, even if a person's ability is not outstanding, because of his or her strong background, he or she can get an important position and a good reward in the company.
Secondly, leaders' views of employees are often not based on ability and dedication, but on the value and contribution of employees to the enterprise. In the eyes of leaders, employees are valuable as long as they can complete their work tasks and do not hinder the basic operation of the company. As for how much effort and pressure employees put in to complete the task, the leader does not care. This kind of management style that only looks at the results and does not look at the process often discourages employees who are really working hard.
Good use of talents, capable people" is often difficult to achieve in reality. In many enterprises, ability and effort are often not proportional to rank and return. Sometimes, even if a person is capable and hardworking, for a variety of reasons, his rank and reward are far inferior to those with strong backgrounds. Not only does this situation undermine the confidence of those hard-working employees, but it also deprives the business of many great talents.
Of course, this is not to say that we should give up our efforts and stop pursuing the improvement of our abilities. Instead, we should work harder, constantly improve our abilities and skills, and make ourselves indispensable talents in the company. However, we must also be soberly aware that relying solely on ability is far from enough. In a company with complex interpersonal relationships, we need to build our own connections and expand our background in order to better achieve our career development.
As a business leader, we should pay more attention to the efforts and efforts of employees, and give employees fair evaluation and rewards. Only in this way can we stimulate the enthusiasm and creativity of employees and make the enterprise develop more healthily.
In business, both competence and background are important. While competence is fundamental, the background should not be overlooked. We need to constantly improve our abilities and skills, while also focusing on expanding our network and background. Only in this way can you gain a foothold in a highly competitive corporate environment and realize your career development and life value.
