Features: Compared to wolves, sheep seem to be the weaker ones; however, since wolves have existed, sheep have never disappeared from the Earth and have continued to reproduce and evolve. From this perspective, sheep are also winners, as they have chosen their ecological niche well—herbivorous, gregarious, and running faster. "Survival of the fittest" applies to all living organisms, which all live within their own "ecological niches." Lions and gazelles must both run faster. These basic natural laws and general principles of the animal kingdom not only apply to the biological world but also to humans and businesses. In reality, many businesses often look for reasons for their success and failures in terms of capital, products, and markets. However, if you consider this from the perspective of natural laws, you will gain many new insights. This book introduces natural laws into the field of management and explains the laws of business management from this angle. Since we are conducting this book in the form of lectures, one of our fundamental principles is to make complex concepts simple, aiming to help readers benefit from them. I believe that after completing these sixteen lessons, you will gain unexpected rewards. In reality, many businesses, when summarizing their successes and failures, tend to look for reasons in terms of markets and capital, often overlooking the fundamental principles and laws. In this book, we have selected sixteen representative animal laws, aiming to introduce the natural laws of the biological world into the field of management. This is intended to help people break free from conventional management thinking and open up their management perspectives based on the survival principles of animals. By understanding the simple yet timeless truths, readers can grasp the intrinsic essence of management.
