I learned a phrase from a training session: in any organization, the moment attendance starts to be emphasized and clock-in becomes necessary, it is surely a sign that the organization is on a downward trajectory. It is said that this sentence was spoken by Bai Yansong. Everyone, share your understanding of it
“\"Self-cultivation rooted in the heart, a sense of discipline that requires no reminder,\" said Liang Xiaosheng. Many companies in China are now learning Toyota’s lean management practices; \"just-in-time\" production and automation are the core principles of this approach. Last month I went to Guangzhou to study these practices, visited GAC Toyota, and was impressed by the professional standards of its employees. A car is completed in 34 seconds, with 6 accident-free production stations (a pass rate of nearly 100%)… In my view, the greatest strength of lean management lies in its so-called \"integration,\" which effectively connects employees and the company together. The core idea is similar to that of the revolutionary forces of old: instilling ideas and fully leveraging the enthusiasm and creativity at the grassroots level. (In my opinion, if our companies could carry on the fine traditions of the Red Army, the Eighth Route Army, and the People’s Liberation Army from those days, there would be no need at all to learn anything about lean management.) ) A full-time counselor at a ratio of 1/1500 is nothing other than a political commissar ; There are no separate dining areas; executives and regular employees eat together in the main cafeteria ; The young workers wrote phrases like “a bird chooses its own mate” on the labor contract. Normal people don’t show up late when pursuing a girl, because they have a goal to achieve. By recognizing the company’s values, it is also possible to eliminate tardiness and early departures; only then can such a company develop healthily.
Any organization that starts to place emphasis on attendance and time tracking is surely on a downward trajectory.
Tch, we’ve been playing for ten years now. . .
Oh, it has been emphasized for over a decade. Failing to clock in is considered absenteeism.
My previous employer was a design institute; back in 2014, we would usually have lunch about twenty minutes earlier, with a lunch break lasting until 1:20 p.m. Last year, due to poor performance, strict supervision of attendance was introduced – being two minutes late in the morning was counted as being late, and it even went so far that two checks were required for lunchtime, with no early departure allowed; 12:30 p.m. was the deadline, and the supervisor would wake those on lunch break on time at 12:55 p.m. Actually, there wasn’t much work to do at that time: L:L
What LZ means by “emphasize” is a sudden shift between what comes before and what comes after
Oh, so it was never really supervised, and suddenly strict controls were imposed?
Is it referring to the issue of work enthusiasm?
