In the second episode of " Ideal City ", Su Xiao, played by Sun Li , was fired by Zhongjian Group. The reason for the dismissal was "joint and several liability for the accident".
In fact, Su Xiao is a very responsible cost engineer , so many friends think that Su Xiao has taken the blame, and they are complaining about her. Is
a scapegoat? Yes and no.
Su Xiao did everything she was supposed to do, was conscientious and dedicated but lost her job. In fact, the leaders who cut corners on the project and caused accidents in order to amplify their own interests basically retreated. From this point of view, Su Xiao is of course the blame.
But if you see the essence of the workplace clearly, you may not think so. What is the workplace? The workplace is a place to take people's money and eliminate disasters for others. The
workplace is a " biological chain ". On the biological chain, no one cares whether the "creature" at the bottom is righteous or evil. She only exists for the desires and needs of the upper layer. What are the keywords in the workplace of
?
is value and cost, goal and result. In the workplace, work ability and work process are practically non-existent. The ability to work is just the subjective feeling that the leader recognizes your value, and the work process is just the reflection of the result after the leader recognizes it.
Therefore, when the leader needs someone to keep the cost to a minimum, so that he can release water and seek rent, Su Xiao's professional ability is the leader's greatest demand for Su Xiao's value; when the leader needs someone to pick up the lunch box, the efficiency of taking the lunch box is The leader's value determination standard for Su Xiao; when the leader needs to evade responsibility, Su Xiao can act as a meat shield. This is the value proposition that the leader gives Su Xiao;
But remember, the workplace is not a battlefield. The battlefield is zero-sum game , but not necessarily in the workplace. The highest rule in the workplace is the exchange of value. The reason why Su Xiao in the
TV series was fired is actually because she did not understand the needs of the leadership, nor did she consciously understand the changes in the "situation", so she did not adjust her position in a timely manner to maximize her value. For example, Su Xiao is like a businessman who lost his business because he could not grasp the changes in market information.
Note, I'm not implying that Su Xiao should join forces with the leadership. What I remind you is that you can only adjust your strategy and protect yourself when you understand the needs of others.
