Entrepreneurship Is Reasonable But Not Moral.
A friend who runs a website has worked hard in the past six months. He travels around Taipei, Shanghai and Beijing three times a month to stay in the office in order to save money and travel without staying at hotels.
On the one hand, he had to persuade the three employees to pform their company. One meeting continued to open. On the other hand, they had to worry about the money being about to run out.
These are not the most troubling things.
He founded the company 3 years ago. His first partners were former classmates, friends and colleagues. These people believed in him, so they were willing to pay as shareholders and work as employees to form the original team.
As the company begins to operate, the difference of everyone's thoughts is revealed. Especially if the company continues to make no profit, the pressure becomes greater and greater, so it is easy to fall into each other's complaining and accusation.
As Tolstoy once said, "happy families are all alike, and unhappy families have their own unhappy reasons."
My friend was unwilling to give up his ideas and would not offend these first supporting partners. He had to act as a good person in various company conflicts, and became a target and exhausted.
I have held several meetings with his company, and obviously feel the pressure between different factions, almost even I have become a target.
Since this year, this friend has evaporated, and did not return calls and MSN messages.
In the middle of 4, he suddenly appeared and I had brunch on a Sunday.
He was 15 minutes late, and he walked lightly when he came.
"I released more than half of my stress," he told me cheerily.
It is true that he ordered a big breakfast and ate the dishes.
He explained that the reason for being late was to help a retired veteran cadre to pack things and send her out to get on the train.
As a result, he finally made up his mind to tackle the problems of three companies, close offices in Beijing and Taipei, and talk with partners who are not suitable and unable to work together to persuade them to leave and bring in new members.
The reason is that the pressure accumulated before is too great for him to bear.
After knowing his company's situation, a potential investor asked him, "what do you do to make money?" he suddenly realized that the purpose of starting a business is not to make friends, but to make money for shareholders.
After thinking about it, he decided to remove pressure from himself and put it on others.
He plans to plan clearly the targets and resources that can be used for the purpose. Next time is to wait for the time to review the compliance rate.
"There is a great deal of risk in doing so, and we must trust others and delegate it, but it is the greatest risk to concentrate all risks on me."
He said.
Of course, the premise is that if a partner leaves office, he will try to buy the other party's shares, and it is higher than the original price, so he can't get together or disperse, and can continue to be friends.
This is the difficulty that all entrepreneurs will encounter.
Entrepreneurs see it because they believe that most people see it before they believe it. Therefore, when they have no money at all, others are willing to work hard to fight with you. This revolutionary emotion is often the most valuable factor in the intersection of people, but it is often a factor that hinders rational judgment.
From excellence to excellence, the reason why many small companies in the United States get into a great enterprise is that the key is to let the right people get on the train and the next thing is right; let the wrong people get on the bus, and the briefing will never be beautiful again.
What is right people? Entrepreneurs should have the ability to judge, otherwise they will make friends with investors' money.
Even in different stages of entrepreneurship, people who need different abilities, like getting on the bus, should use the concept of "segmented on the train and arriving at the station to get off". It is not necessary to get to the terminal from the starting point to get on the bus, so that many suitable passengers may be missed on the way, and the people on the train are also very restless.
But it takes a lot of courage from entrepreneurs.
I am familiar with another network company, entrepreneurial team personality is very mild, when they found that personnel problems need to be adjusted, is not directly deal with, but to find new cadres to enter the knife, as time passes, more and more people, more and more complaints.
They do not know that they are part of the problem. They are also part of the answer. They only see others as problems.
This is not a special case.
Too many organizations are in a bad mood. They talk more about morality and reason, and finally end up with a bunch of competent people who are just making friends with each other, and then becoming a mutual opponent, wasting their shareholders' money.
I remember that in the hottest days of business around the world in 2000, there was a statistic that only 6 out of every 100 new start-ups could be listed successfully.
For those losers who have been brushed away halfway, they have not yet developed to the market or have begun to have customers.
The cruel fact is that most of them are defeated by their own people, their closest relatives and friends.
