Take inventory of your own resources and keywords to open up more possibilities for life
This article (opens in a new tab) is written by Zhang Zhangren (opens in a new tab), who once served as the human resources director of a well-known enterprise. He has insight into the key factors of internal corporate processes, organizational team operations, supervisory management functions, cross-department communication and human resources development. Specializes in teaching and project coaching on problem analysis and decision-making, project management, human resources and other related topics. Thank you for your permission to publish. I would like to express my gratitude.
I still remember that on July 13, I made an appointment to have brunch with V University (opens in a new tab). Discuss each other’s views on the business model of corporate lecturers.
V said: “Would you like to take stock of your current work situation?”
He asked me to write down a few “keywords” in my field of work in a nine-square grid. After I finished writing, I realized that the few words I wrote were related to characteristics rather than the work itself. Well, of course it was immediately rejected by V University and asked to rewrite it.
When I was copying for the second time, he specifically reminded me to start from the perspective of making a profit. After much thinking, I found that I could only write down three Cash Points, namely working as a corporate lecturer, giving campus lectures, and cooperating with friends to open open classes.
Looking at my nine-square grid, I began to wonder how could my life be so narrow?
As if he had read through my mind, University V then asked, “Well, think about it, are there any projects or projects that you can continue to implement from the present to the future?”
So I started to start the Lenovo method and started to organize the recent related work projects. When I think of projects related to lectures, it’s coaching, and if it’s related to speeches, it’s consulting. Of course, what is related to open classes is book publishing and column writing. Well, I unknowingly turned the original three grids into seven.
Wow! Suddenly I feel like my abilities have become greater!
V asked again: “So, are there any ways these seven keywords can be combined with each other? Or can they produce more advanced products and services?”
Well, I fell into deep thought after listening to it…
Ever since I took [Teacher Chen Yi’an]‘s (http://www.merit-times.com.tw/NewsPage.aspx?unid=376487 (opens in a new tab)) course “Sensitivity and Human Servants”, I have always wanted to do more in-depth self-exploration through dialogue. Therefore, in the last box of the nine-square grid, I wrote “self-talk workshop”. At this point, Zhang Zhangren (opens in a new tab)’s career has been successfully completed!
Of course, I am also very aware that these tasks are not achieved overnight and require staged planning and even interdependence. And every task can be developed into a short, medium and long-term plan. It seems that my next five years will be very fulfilling and busy!
Well, Jiugongge can be seen everywhere, but most of the thinking and application in the market are also based on learning. This is the first time I heard that the inventory is based on personal career. How can such a useful tool be kept secret? Now, with the consent of V University, I want to share it with my friends who want to re-plan a great channel for themselves. Let us regroup and set off together!
