Brainwashing Competition: Crazy Training

The founder of a listed consumer company invited me to take part in a three day period.

At the invitation of my friend, I will take part in a training course of XX training company in his circle as an employee of his company.

The training company from Central Plains chose the site in a hotel in a development zone in Beijing. The schedule is very full. It's a little closed from nine to ten o'clock every day, which is equivalent to a business trip in Beijing.

Colleagues said that this training style is similar to pyramid schemes, beware of brainwashing, and jokes suggest that I bring a GPS, so that I can get out in time.

However, the fact is certainly not so unreliable. In the document sent by XX, it is written: let L teacher share with you the executive truth. L is the founder and principal trainer of this company. I guess the theme of the training should be improving executive power and team leadership.

First days

Early in the morning, I hurried to the hotel and joined several colleagues from my friend's company and hurried into the meeting hall.

Sure enough, it is a large-scale training, which can accommodate three or four hundred people, set up a dozen tables, and each chair has 8~10 chairs.

On the table there are such snacks as the rice cake, and there is a row of staff for hot drinks, coffee and other drinks.

The 9 point will be near. The students will arrive and start.

An ugly MC jumped to the stage and gave a brief introduction of L's teacher's voice.

At the age of 20, the teacher set up a company to give lectures to his bosses. Now he is speaking in several cities, flying like Superman, and is very dense. We will go to Shanghai on the second day of the end of this period.

The course is launched for senior executives to enhance executive power as the main objective.

Looking around, I found that most of them were thirty or forty years old and a middle-aged man who was devout.

At the request of the master of ceremonies, we opened the handouts prepared by XX company, signed the guarantee for not recording videos, handed them in, and wrote down the vision of their training.

"Dear classmates, it's hard to calm down a few times in life."

The master of ceremonies repeated the sentence several times with the background music. Fortunately, in the morning, it was easy to have no distraction. I wrote down my hope: improving executive power and efficiency. This is the most puzzling problem in my recent year.

Immediately, it was a solemn invitation to the teacher. The music rang and the tone of the MC rose. The students in the first few rows began to applaud, and the L teacher, who was not very tall and wore glasses, came on the stage.

His voice is not too high, or even husky. First, he talked about the history of the company by riding the lantern, and began to talk about how many people his class benefited and unforgettable.

The screen on the two sides of the rostrum shows some students standing on the sickbed and listening to his class on the sickbed.

At more than 10 o'clock, the content of "dry goods" involving enterprise management has finally started.

The first theme is "to get the fruits".

It seems to say that the students are in the center of their hearts, and the venue is suddenly quiet. There is something in the content: the active staff will make the result, the passive employees are the walking process, if the task can be forgiven, the subordinates will not be responsible for the worthless results.

L teacher weapon: we must make sufficient confirmation before issuing the order, whether it can be completed within the time limit, and the result should be quantified.

After the goal is determined, it will never change and decline, only continuous and increasing measures.

Then he talked about how to converge people's hearts.

Magic weapon is the two word: mission, to enhance the work to a sense of mission.

L turned his head around and began to take himself as an example. How did he decide not to be mediocre and start a company and how to return home? He also threw out a sentence that "one person's greatest happiness is to find his mission in the early years".

His mission went up to the national complex and played a clip of the TV drama "Legend of Bruce Lee": Bruce Lee told the foreigners' confidante about the unequal treatment of the Chinese, and finally became famous overseas in the arena with the foreign boxers.

I wonder if this is part of the "sensational" habit that is commonly used in such training. When I look at it, I begin to have a sour nose. The general S invited me to begin to take off glasses and wipe tears.

At the scene of Bruce Lee's victory, the audience burst into applause from the edge. I think these executives from traditional industries are in the state.

At noon, S and y, my colleagues and my colleagues, couldn't help talking about the cost of the class: according to them, the unit price per person is 12800 yuan per person, and the friend company bought 2000 million yuan or so, which is about $2000 per person.

Y and XX are amazing about the ability to absorb gold, and this kind of consumption doesn't include room and board.

In the afternoon, I came up with something that shocked me.

To do business, we need to know "four sides": alongside big money, big talent, big officials and large families.

Such words will not appear in MBA textbooks, and even if they appear, it will be a "good relationship with important people".

And L teacher did not play lightly, and took himself as an example to give a good interpretation.

L teacher is good at telling the truth. He sums up his spending to exchange resources and win the hearts of the people. He also clenches his fist and moves his lower arms vigorously.

How do you encourage your employees? What do you do to your money? What do you do when you run into an important customer? How do you support your money? How do you support the XX company? How do you support it? Everyone replied, "throwing money!" many students are nodding their heads at this time, and I laugh with the Y across the face. She is the responsible person in the company's shop.

Q, who sits on the opposite side, always comes from another company. She once participated in the training of XX company in Xi'an.

She revealed that the team had to be staged in the evening and the play was about to be staged.

Sure enough, the marshal announced that he could run for 12 captains, who had more than the manager level and had never participated in the training of XX company.

After the call order, S always encouraged us to come to the stage. Interestingly, XX's employees began to rush back from the rear to the rostrum, perhaps hoping to give people an illusion of signing up.

Soon, there were 30 people on the stage, and a young girl in yellow finally rushed up.

The candidates want to vote for themselves. I have categorized them briefly: some pay attention to introducing their own companies, some take the weight of how many people have taken part in their activities, and some even suggest that if they support, they will give their products to the company, but in the end, they often end up with a big drink, "I will bring you into a championship".

These people came from all over the place. A fat uncle with a Shanxi dialect laughed and laughed.

S was directly elected. Among the remaining "undecided" people, the yellow dress girl became the twelfth captain as the only resurrection.

She is a manager of a small company in Beijing. On the stage, she said excitedly that she had thought the team name was solidarity team, and the team song was "unity is strength".

Then there was chaos, and the captain began to recruit players.

In addition to several of us, uncle fat of Shanxi has led nearly ten employees to become our teammates, and several few companies.

The employees of XX company began to register with their books. We took the name of our company as the team name, and vaguely heard the broadcast of "happy team", "sword team" and "perfect storm team", and announced that the last day of training would be awarded.

We finally lined up to "win the championship wholeheartedly" as the slogan. After shouting three times, they broke up and met for second days at 7:30 in the morning.

I remember the last time I shouted slogans or I was in college military training. With the idea of watching a good play, we went back to the lodge in the dark.

Second days

At half past seven in the morning, several of us arrived at the meeting on time, which is still very early from the 9 point of the official lecture.

But we are not the first ones.

There are two teams already in place, and somehow they have got the red and yellow uniforms, and put up slogans to practise slogans.

These props are provided by XX company, and the price is not low.

S always had to follow suit, first bought a batch of red hats, so that we became the first team to wear hats. Somehow, a large bag of pink uniforms was brought to us, and several of us began to put on the spot. Not long after, a small number of red flags were added to everyone.

I think at this rate, our team will soon have all the props, such as slogans, team flags and loudspeakers.

We dress neatly, continue to practice the slogan, and make the march of the volunteers a team song.

But now the problem is that the number of people is not equal, and wait for a while. The fat uncle of Shanxi arrived late. We hurriedly brought the props to them. The other party was puzzled and rushed into the uniform.

Then I continued to practise slogans. Somehow, my collective feeling began to cause trouble. I saw the misleading slogans and the action of flapping red flags. I ran to the front to guide the movements of the red flag. After repeating the three times, our group of mixed enterprises finally had the overall style.

We were the last team to enter the conference hall.

It was decided that when we waved the flag and shouted slogans three times, the result was quickly disrupted, because the members of the solidarity team even shouted "welcome" on both sides of the entrance to welcome us.

It will be a coincidence. It will show the attitude of "friendship first, competition second" at once.

I saw XX employees holding what they remembered. They are the judges of this selection.

Today's lesson is centered on team cohesion.

The company's talent gathering can not rely on recruitment, but by training, small companies need to set up training specialists, medium-sized training departments, large scale training systems and training schools should be established.

Leaders should be "obedient and obedient, and serve the next".

Speaking of which, I began to pay attention to the staff of XX company.

Most of them seem to be graduating from junior college or university. Both men and women wear black suits, but they look cheap and Shanzhai.

Their mental outlook was very close and well-trained. I asked a girl specially after class, and she said that there were about four or five people trained in this period.

In S's general sense, L is good at using his sense of mission to infect his employees, and the company he founded is a paragon.

I think XX company's curriculum is still academic, because the main content of the afternoon, "reward and punishment system" is another magic weapon of L teacher.

He pointed out that middle and senior cadres should be punished enough to reward their subordinates in a timely manner and fulfill their commitments at the first time.

First of all, I talked about the marriage of a pair of employees. I went to the morning to witness the wedding, and sent the story of the new people's color TV. Then I came to a 180 degree turn, telling the leaders of the company to punish themselves.

For example, a branch manager can not fulfill the sales task and fulfil his promise to walk from Hangzhou to Shanghai.

At this time, the big screen began to play videos of him walking on the road in an extremely feeble and feeble way; followed by another example, two executives walked from a place in Xi'an to the Xi'an branch, and the staff waited for them in tears at the end.

At this time, "on the road" sounded, this song is worthy of the favorite of private entrepreneurs.

The blockbuster is not over yet. The next clip is XX's three little girl. She was sent off for hundreds of push ups because she was not prepared for the training.

My tears began to burst.

The lighting of the venue was on the bright side, and L teacher solemnly said, "the team without tears is not a good team."

The day before the end of the training, homework was left, each team wrote a team plan, and expressed confidence in tomorrow's decisive battle.

At this time, our ranking is very close, and this assignment has become the key to the recovery of the situation.

We decided to discuss it all night.

Q and our vice captain, a female entrepreneur from Heilongjiang, went back to the hotel to discuss with us.

In addition to homework, you have to find a way to add extra points to other teams.

The two female entrepreneurs put a lot of stress on S. His character is too easy-going. The reason why the team members are late is due to him. We need to make a punishment in public. Let XX see how we apply it after learning the reward and punishment system.

Finally, we decided that the captain would take a lap in the meeting as punishment, and then seize the second day before the finals, read a poem by Q sister, and give a little gift to L teacher.

The small meeting opened from 11 in the morning to 2 in the morning, during which S always called the heads of several other companies in the team, demanding that second days must be assembled at 7:45, otherwise it would be punished by push ups.

And the writing task of poetry fell on my head, and I was immediately driven by the sense of team honor.

Third days

At 5 in the morning, I got up and began to complete the task of writing poetry.

All of a sudden, there was a feeling that the morning before yesterday was still sitting tight. Yesterday's state was shaking the flag.

Due to the delay of breakfast, several of our young players arrived at the venue.

This time we were the third queuing teams to enter the conference hall, and we took a place on the rostrum, singing team songs and shouting slogans on the top, and actively winning the impression score.

After the team is seated, share the learning results.

Q sister raised her hand first.

Her view is that, as a general manager of a catering service enterprise, sometimes it is annoying to see employees unable to complete their tasks. But in this training, they are also members of the same entrepreneurs and managers who are also the top leaders of the enterprise.

Then we heard that B, a member of the team, lives in the northwest corner of Beijing. Last night, he received a call from the captain. He got up at 5 in the morning and drove over. He was waiting outside the stadium at 7 o'clock.

After that, we talked about entrepreneurship and dreams. In L's teacher's words, "reason can't create miracles."

Frankly speaking, most of his courses are of practical value and are not as boring as Ben read out. His pet phrase is "yes or no" and "approval please raise your hands".

But these things can be obtained in many ways. As S always said, look at the three books - "positioning", "evergreen" and "enterprise strategic management", and many "dry goods" are enough to get them.

However, entrepreneurs in these traditional industries need the role of a mentor.

A student in Northeast China was particularly worried. The supermarket he opened opened a supermarket similar to that of the supermarket, and produced a "low price every day".

L thought an advertisement for his company, "true love true love", highlighting the characteristics of his "true", and the customers would have some reason to think that if the other side was so cheap, would there be a fake? Finally, sales rebounded quickly and did not slander the opponent, but it succeeded in recovering the backwardness.

At noon, the last time Q sister was spoiled: the afternoon game was counted, but unfortunately, there was no time for rehearsal.

When everyone queued up again, it was found that all the tables in the meeting room were completely empty.

This also gives us no chance to prepare poetry readings.

The 12 teams each formed a circle. Each team was PK together, each selected three captains, and the rest counted.

This kind of game is not complicated. It is difficult to cooperate. It must be counted in the fastest way. There must be no mistakes. The team who lost the game will do push ups by the team leader.

The performance of the previous teams was very fast, but there were always several people in the team who were nervous.

Our PK team is the "wolf team" with the lowest score and not enough clothes.

When we arrived, the boy next to y suddenly became nervous. We suspect he was not the management of the company.

Fortunately, we played well and won in a series of rounds.

But after all, there will be some loss. When we see members lying on the ground doing no push ups, we can not help but do it.

It seems that everyone feels that only three days' team needs cohesion. In the tear of L's teacher, many players cried. In the morning, when the captain and vice captain jumped for a week, they saw that the Deputy captain was trying to keep up. We were almost choking, and I almost shouted to cheer with the biggest voice.

At the end of the training, some of them came to a halt. The solidarity team led by the young female leader won the first prize. Then all the members joined hands to sing the first friend. In the morning class, many teams switched their contact ways to achieve the purpose of business contacts.

After dinner with some of the players, we suspect that L's next stop may be even more popular. For entrepreneurs, the cost of thousands of dollars to $10000 may be different from what we imagined.
