最近在读《谁说大象不能跳舞》-IBM董事长郭士纳自传这本书,让我重新对管理也有了一个看法。 作为一名工程师,总是会有一种对技术的崇拜,觉得世界是被技术改变,各种伟大的技术推动了整个世界的发展。以蒸汽机为主要特征的第一次工业革命、以电力电动机为主要特征的第二次工...
评分 评分我看完整本书后,总结出两个字:执行。 就算是IBM最危险的时候,已经有了很好的技术、产品在后面等着。 只是因为IBM太臃肿,忽略了将创新更快的与市场结合。当他大刀阔斧的将既有的技术和产品推广开来,当中碰到任何阻挡,绝不手软,并为受到过去IBM的文化影响,执行到底,使得...

评分和IBM的缘分不浅。记得刚进麻省时看着同组学长在IBM华生实验室发表自然子刊,甚是羡慕。可是后来才知道,IBM的RD,早已开始悄然转向。从去年到今年,IBM的投资已经带给我万余美元的回报,我开始从对罗麦提的AI与云计算战略方针入手,回向研究蓝色巨人百年发展的历程。郭世纳是个旷世奇才,他拯救了IBM,这两个评价都没有错。郭有三板斧,第一是专注,在了解自身策略的前提下进行合理并购,以长远目光处理资源分配问题;第二是执行,人们在意的是你检验什么,而不是你期望什么。执行方面需要世界级的流程,清晰的战略规划,以及结果导向的文化;第三是管理,每个优秀企业都是其管理者(尤其是创始者)的影子。打嘴炮不行,只有亲临前线,让员工和管理层都知道你很重视这个企业才行。大象起舞需要分权和整合结合(具体见p247)。
