Confusion of Entrepreneurs: I can't seem to lead the company anymore. The key to developing an enterprise's human resource management system is to transfer the pressure of "human resource management" to management responsibility holders. Shifting from the past where the boss alone bore the responsibility to taking responsibility, making each level of a "responsible entity" for guiding, constraining, helping, and motivating subordinates. Entrepreneurs must break free from this misconception; otherwise, they will never find relief from the general pressure of human resource management. Therefore, the real challenge faced by local enterprises and entrepreneurs is how to bestow on the "willingness and ability to take responsibility."—Professor Bao Zheng from the School of Business of Renmin University of China, a renowned human resource management expert.
There is no better choice for a company than to pay attention to the thoughts that come from practitioners, to focus on the experiences summarized and refined through personal practice and dedication. Whether a can develop the skills of human resource management in "selecting, using, nurturing, and retaining" depends on a long and arduous "metamorphosis" process. During this process, the indirect experiences of others, and their objectively and genuinely recorded "vivid stories," are indispensable.
From the practical perspective of an HR Director, the author explores the problems in human resource management faced by local Chinese enterprises and proposes effective solutions. This book aims to highlight a dynamic management approach, showcasing the entire process of implementing human resource management in local Chinese enterprises, presenting the local, proactive, vibrant, creative, and artistic aspects of human resource management practices in local Chinese enterprises. It seeks to provide some reference and inspiration for the standardization and development of local Chinese enterprises, advancing the process of standardized management.
Currently, most local enterprises are facing a strategic transformation from extensive management to refined management, from non-standardized management to standardized management. Whether an enterprise can successfully transform depends largely on the construction and operation of its human resource foundation management. This book focuses on the confusion of entrepreneurs during the transformation period and traces the root causes of these confusions, identifying common problems in human resource management among local Chinese enterprises. Through this process, it gradually clarifies the to resolve these confusions, ultimately enabling enterprises to systematically and strategically solve human resource management issues as a whole. At the same time, it refines the confusion of entrepreneurs into challenges faced by other middle and senior management personnel such as HR Directors/Managers, thereby forming a core force to comprehensively implement effective human resource management—"selecting, using, nurturing, and retaining people"—finally resolving the confusion of entrepreneurs.
This book uses numerous cases to illustrate the successful practices of local enterprises in human resource management, carrying out experience and education in the form of "Key Focus" and "Friendly Tips," thereby systematically and artistically solving the human resource management problems of local enterprises.
