Features: Great Yi Management is based on the principles revealed by the I Ching to implement management. For Chinese people, everything we say and do originates from the I Ching, and our management is, in fact, grounded in the principles of Yi. However, many of us apply the I Ching and its principles every day without realizing it, leading to knowing the "what" but not the "why." It's no wonder that management feels difficult when we don't understand ourselves. This book is the first to provide a detailed analysis of the management principles embedded in the I Ching and distills 64 essential lessons for managers. It explores topics such as "how the three levels of organization can uphold the Three Noble Virtues," "how top executives, positioned at the 'Nine Five' status, operate," "how middle-level managers can fulfill their responsibilities without overstepping authority," "how all levels can balance firmness and flexibility for mutual complementarity," and "how to manage to attract good fortune and avoid misfortune." It develops a practical and effective management system tailored to the national character of modern Chinese people. This book is the true source of Chinese-style management and allows readers to grasp the essence of it. Without understanding the principles of the I Ching, one cannot effectively serve as a manager at any level. The significance and value of this book for Chinese managers are clear to discern.
