Thread Content

In a few days, the construction department will hold a retreat meeting for the construction team and supervision team. I am new to construction management and have no experience. Could you please tell me what materials or questions you need to prepare in advance for the retreat meeting? In particular, I would like to consider some rationalization suggestions for the smooth progress of future construction. Thank you for being a little more specific.

Retreat refers to discussing the political, ideological, policy, and theoretical aspects of a certain work. Obviously, retreat and“ * * ”There is an essential difference between the "Left" approach of the period, and it is completely different from falsehood, fiction, and vanity. Retreat and pragmatism are two sides of the same coin. Retreat is for the decision-making process. It is an analysis and research process of the feasibility, specific operations, emergency plans, etc. of the decision before making a decision. It is a high-level macro grasp of the development laws and trends of things. ; And pragmatism is the process of turning decisions into reality. Without necessary pragmatism, there will be no scientific decision-making, and the "practical" approach may be a kind of blind action or recklessness. Scientific retreat helps to understand the situation clearly, grasp the trend, avoid detours and improve efficiency. The work of creating theories, formulating routes, proposing programs, and establishing principles does not take a specific thing as the object. It must start from specific reality, but also leave perceptual concreteness, abandon the particularity of specific things, and abstract the universal essence and general laws of things. Therefore, it is called "retreat". Truth mainly exists in the form of theory. Truth-seeking is mainly a theoretical work, and therefore a pragmatic work. It is not mutually exclusive with pragmatism, but is interdependent.   A retreat is as opposed to a pragmatic meeting. Generally, units hold meetings at the beginning of the year or at the beginning of a certain period to discuss and formulate plans for that year or period and the goals they hope to achieve, which serve as guidelines and outlines for future work. This is what a retreat is. At the end of the year or stage, a meeting is held to summarize the gains and shortcomings. This is called a pragmatic meeting. Discuss some ideas and methods for the next step of work, and set the framework of the work, which is mainly about ideas. Setting the ideas and then making specific arrangements at subsequent work meetings is the prerequisite for specific work. It is usually held before the annual working meeting. * The scope is generally the heads of subordinate departments.

What is the purpose or purpose of your retreat? Usually "retreat" mainly focuses on the management level to discuss strategic goals, management systems, research and development or long-term development. From the scope of your "the construction department will hold a retreat meeting for the construction team and supervision team", it should focus on the implementation of "project execution capabilities" at the execution level. The retreat should focus on the key points of your company's current work, conduct in-depth discussions on the key capabilities that are in urgent need of improvement, and clarify implementation goals and action plans. The specific steps are: Focus on the proposition - discover existing problems - take measures - implement.

Engineering project retreat? According to the participating parties provided by LZ, is it usually the first regular construction site meeting or preparatory meeting before the official start of project construction? Usually the first regular construction site meeting is chaired by the owner. The main content or agenda of the meeting is usually: 1. Provide a place for the construction and supervision parties to get acquainted. The owner will introduce the main persons in charge of both parties, professional and technical personnel, etc. 2. Introduce the supervisor to the main contents and requirements of the project contract signed by the owner and the construction unit. 3. Introduce the general status of the project to both parties and explain it.: 1. The atmosphere of this kind of meeting is very friendly, because work has not really started yet, and they are like friends who have just met :) 2. From this meeting, the hosting rights of all regular construction site meetings will be handed over to the project chief supervisory engineer 3. Similarly, starting from this meeting, all construction site matters will be managed, coordinated, and controlled by the project supervisor ; The owner can basically act as a "hands-off shopkeeper". Of course, the prerequisite is that you can find a good supervision company! ;P 4. From now on, in all regular construction site meetings, the owner (or owner's representative) basically just has to keep his ears open :lol Because, as the owner's general project leader, he has not held a "retreat meeting", so he can only use the first regular construction site meeting to make up the number;P In addition, the things in the project are all practical matters, and need to be pragmatic, not retreating;P For reference!

Retreat means that there is no specific work arrangement, usually doing ideological work, talking about the current situation, etc.

:D So this meeting is called a retreat? We generally call it a leadership meeting. The characteristic is that the main leaders of all parties are present and everyone eats after the meeting. Because the people who are actually doing the work do not have much say in this meeting, the leaders may not be aware of the progress of the entire project, and they may not always follow up on the project in the future. Most of them just flatter each other and fix the principled things.

It is another formalistic "virtual meeting". Of course, it still has its meaning, such as: 1. The leaders of each party have a face-to-face meeting, so that they don’t know how to greet each other when they meet in the future. At least they know the service recipients and the service recipients. 2. Leaders exchange business cards, which will help them call the other leader when they encounter a problem that cannot be solved by their subordinates. At this time, the other leader will realize the seriousness of the problem and increase efforts to solve it. Ultimately, it “reflects the leadership’s ability to do things.” 3. Save each other some face for discussing issues in the future. After all, having "drunk" together can reduce future disputes to a certain extent.

 (The article information is mainly quoted from: "Retreat Work Can't Be Neglected" (Author: Suxue Gang), there are some slight changes in some places, which are hereby explained. ) What is a retreat meeting? As we usually say, "retreat" has a more or less derogatory connotation. But now, from the central government to local governments, "retreat meetings" are held. It can be seen that "retreat" has another meaning. While I was on the phone with my cousin and searching on Baidu, I discovered that the true meaning of retreat was very different from my understanding.   I checked the modern Chinese dictionary and the explanation for "retreat" is: Refers to discussing the political, ideological, policy, and theoretical aspects of a certain work.   Obviously, my understanding of "retreat" still remains at the same level as“ * * ”A set of related stages of "Leftism" in the period, closely linking it with falsehood, fiction, and vanity. Sometimes, words also have the color of the times, and people’s acceptance and understanding of words also have preconceived factors. But in the final analysis, they are still ignorant and ignorant, and they must study harder in the future. * .   The information I have searched has been sorted out and put here as a memo. It is also provided for reference by friends who are interested. * .   Retreat and pragmatism are two sides of the same coin. Retreat is for the decision-making process. It is an analysis and research process of the feasibility, specific operations, emergency plans, etc. of the decision before making a decision. It is a high-level macro grasp of the development laws and trends of things. ; And pragmatism is the process of turning decisions into reality. Without necessary pragmatism, there will be no scientific decision-making, and the "practical" approach may be a kind of blind action or recklessness. Scientific retreat helps to understand the situation clearly, grasp the trend, avoid detours and improve efficiency. The work of creating theories, formulating routes, proposing programs, and establishing principles does not take a specific thing as the object. It must start from specific reality, but also leave perceptual concreteness, abandon the particularity of specific things, and abstract the universal essence and general laws of things. Therefore, it is called "retreat". Truth mainly exists in the form of theory. Truth-seeking is mainly a theoretical work, and therefore a pragmatic work. It is not mutually exclusive with pragmatism, but is interdependent.   A retreat is as opposed to a pragmatic meeting. Generally, units hold meetings at the beginning of the year or at the beginning of a certain period to discuss and formulate plans for that year or period and the goals they hope to achieve, which serve as guidelines and outlines for future work. This is what a retreat is. At the end of the year or stage, a meeting is held to summarize the gains and shortcomings. This is called a pragmatic meeting. Discuss some ideas and methods for the next step of work, and set the framework of the work, which is mainly about ideas. Setting the ideas and then making specific arrangements at subsequent work meetings is the prerequisite for specific work. Generally held before the annual work meeting, the * The scope is generally the heads of subordinate departments.   “The term "retreat" originated from the "Central Retreat Work Conference" more than ten years ago. At that time, the central government focused on national ideological and political work, spiritual civilization construction, party style, political style, social atmosphere, * * , emergencies and other aspects of work meetings are called "retreat" work meetings. “The distinctive feature of "retreat work conference" is that: The meeting is of extremely high standard (generally held by * * * Personnel above the committee level participate) ; The research scope is wide (politics, economy, culture, health, * * , diplomacy, ethnic affairs, and emergencies may all be involved) ; Some problems and phenomena may still be in their infancy, but they are extremely important ; It is highly policy-oriented, directional and confidential, and is often a package of major research and deployment matters. Later, these meetings were still held, but the name was no longer called the "Retreat" Working Meeting, but replaced by the "Central Committee" * * * ”or * * * * * Meeting.   We refer to "retreat" to this day as a general term for all work other than the work of a group center. Such as: Ideological and political work, comprehensive management, spiritual civilization, welfare security, cultural construction, integrity construction, national religion, cultural and sports events, environmental improvement, image construction, etc., any package of major events outside of the central work can be put into the "basket" of "retreat" work.   Retreat work is important. The main leaders and legal representatives of some units, especially the "top leaders" appointed by their superiors, are often only keen on their "own work" and "central work" and do not pay attention to "retreat" work, as shown in the following:: Division of labor and shuffling, perfunctory attitude, indifference in thought, and procrastination in action. Failure to go to meetings to study problems, failure to arrange competent personnel, failure to provide financial support, and letting the team members take over the work, without taking care of good or bad things. As a result, problems often arise in the "retreat" work.   The "retreat" work of some units has been left out and is very weak, and the lessons learned are very profound. Although their central work is excellent, they are held back by the "retreat" work. Such as: Penalty for violating financial disciplines ; Family planning and comprehensive management were vetoed by one vote ; Fire safety work was notified and punished ; Employee participation meeting * * ; Employee sentenced for crime ; Team members exposed in scandal ; The main members run for official positions, keep lovers, and engage in corruption. * * , harming the public and enriching private interests, pretending to be public to benefit private interests ; Employee casualties and accidents disrupt normal work order. In fact, these seemingly complicated tasks can be effectively stopped and avoided, and through hard work, the unit can win unilateral honors and add several medals, certificates, trophies, and plaques. Turn criticism, punishment, and worry into joy. Obviously, "retreat" work is not dispensable, but is of great importance and has a great impact on the development of the unit, so it must attract everyone's attention.   We must adhere to "dialectics" and "two-point theory" in everything, especially those who are "top leaders". They must weigh the pros and cons and make overall plans. They must learn to "play the piano" and understand "mixed music". They must be a good "general conductor" of the band. No aspect of work can be neglected. As long as a job exists, there must be a reason for its existence. When the leaders in charge and their employees put forward requests and suggestions, they must have reasonable considerations. As long as they do not go out of line, do not affect the overall situation, and do not violate principles, their requests must be basically met. If they need to increase personnel, ensure funds, and have Problems must be solved with help. This is the most basic attitude of trusting subordinates, great support and encouragement for leaders in charge, and recognition and acceptance of "retreat" work. Only in this way can the leader's "posture" be demonstrated, the leader's "art" be demonstrated, the leader's "magnanimity" be reflected, and the leader's "prestige" be established. Otherwise, these "retreat" jobs will be ignored and make mistakes because they do not receive "due treatment, sufficient attention, and legal status." The survey found that "retreat" work has a strong stage, surprise, and obvious effect. As long as someone is responsible, selects capable personnel, and funds are guaranteed, it is easier to be an advanced, pioneer, and model. Smart leaders are good at "retreat" work. For those who have made some achievements in the industry, once they get a reward, they take the opportunity to "boost morale and issue some additional bonuses" and feel proud in front of employees and superiors. It is always better than "reporting, criticizing, learning lessons, making corrections within a deadline, and passive inspection", so why not do it. Some supervisors are good at managing "performance" in this area and strive for awards, big and small. The result is "red flags flying" and "lots of rewards", which makes them happy and happy for themselves.   “"Retreat" work is an "adjustment agent" that regulates the relationship between supervisors and those in charge ; “"Retreat" work is a "testing agent" that can test the artistic level of leaders ; “The work of "retreat" is also a "monument of merit", which is engraved with the wisdom and wisdom of the leader. ; “"Retreat" work is also a "baton"” ; Guide subordinates to win greater victory and greater glory. ; “The work of "retreat" is also a "coagulant", unifying everyone's destiny, will, ideas, and trends to form a unified purpose and will, and do a better job of centripetal force and unity. Therefore, “retreat” work cannot be ignored.   This post was last edited by panfangming on 2009-2-8 16:33 ]
