A plain book is dark when it is explicit.

This sentence has been misunderstood by many people, saying that leaders should pretend to be ignorant, show a muddled look in front of subordinates, or have great skills, but only show eight or four points in front of subordinates. According to them, they are afraid of discouraging their subordinates. Others understand that the instructions given should be vague and ambiguous to appear unfathomable.

What I want to say is that if you really understand and do this, then this organization is not far from collapse.

There is another sentence in the book, which is very clear and can be photographed.

It means that a wise leader, like a candle in the dark, illuminates the road ahead so that subordinates can follow it.

That's why it caused such a wide range of misunderstandings. What's the problem?

What's the difference between showing and taking pictures?

The word "God", which is what we often say, means "Xiu", "Xiu" and "God", that is, God. Show, sacrifice to heaven, pray to God to reveal the mystery and bless.

Therefore, it shows the enlightenment of one party to the other.

Note that this is the problem. The one who gives inspiration is God, and the other is ignorant human.

For ignorant human beings, God is omniscient and omnipotent.

Here we have to ask a fundamental question, what does the organization exist for, or what does the organization exist for, or what is the role of leaders mainly to deal with?

A more appropriate answer is to deal with uncertainty.

Because when everything has a definite plan, do it according to the plan, and there is no need for leaders to coordinate.

Well, let's look back. Is the leader omniscient and omnipotent about the organization, the environment and the leaders? Who dares to say that he knows everything?

So it means that the leader thinks he knows everything and gives his subordinates an overly detailed plan, which in itself is groggy.

On the battlefield, for example, the battle plan given by Li De, a strategist called by Wang Ming and Bo Gu, even gave out the placement parts of every machine gun. Of course, the result was heavy, and it was ironically said that selling Ye Tian was not painful.

So how should the right leader interact with his subordinates?

Leaders can give clear guidelines, strategies and plans, that is to say, point out the general direction. This is based on the fact that subordinates are not only bookish, but also pragmatic and realistic, giving timely feedback to help leaders understand the latest situation. This is not based on express.

Leaders can also give principles, bottom lines and purposes. If necessary, you can also give guidance to your subordinates to help them improve their abilities, but this is guidance, not daily work.

Some teachers are not so sensitive to taking photos and showing pictures, on the one hand, because of the lack of leadership practice, and on the other hand, because after all, more than two thousand years have passed, and the language environment at that time is too different from the current language environment. Only by combing the process from Oracle Bone Inscriptions to modern Chinese characters can we find this feeling well.

Books or theories, after all, are just a statement, and only serve as reference and guidance. Reading is based on communication. The communication between leaders and subordinates also needs to be based on the basic principles of communication, and real communication can have good results. And mysterious nothingness is also useful, leaving blank and keeping elastic. These are the art of leadership, so I won't say much here.
