在你自己完成工作之前,你无法管理

你曾经被分配了一个单调乏味的任务,公司uld’ve been done differently? Have you ever been given projects for which the deadlines were just unreasonable? Well, if so, then best believe your managers have never done the jobs themselves. You need to be in the field to know how things can be optimized. You need to be in the field to see what works and what doesn’t. As a business development intern in charge of optimizing operations and building new departments, I’ve noticed first-hand how the management’s decisions are based on theories and numbers, not reality.

当我在米兰初创公司时,我负责重新设计运营手册以挑选摩擦点并优化效率。当我阅读40页手册时,我注意到一切似乎是必要的。然而,我也注意到任务的时间与人类可能的现实之间有断开连接。因此,我问我的合作伙伴,如果我能搭乘当天的一个野外专家,那可能是我与公司时代最有洞察力的一天之一。当我出去的领域时,我自愿做的是,做了物质劳动,注意到摩托斯队的重沉重。我也注意到停止之间缺乏优化。最后,该领域专家向我开放并告诉我他认为我们的系统效率低下,以及如何改善事情。

Currently, I’m working on building a sales department for another start-up. Building a department is like building a system. Instead of creating something that’s ideal, I need to create something that works and new recruits can easily adapt to. In order to do that, I need to do every task myself. This includes prospecting, to updating our CRM, to sending out emails and setting up calls, etc. While this is still a work in progress, I look forward to when our sales team is officially up and running.
