When two people are handing over a needle, they accidentally drop it on the ground. People from five different countries have five different ways of finding it:
- Germans are meticulous. They divide the area where the needle fell into many small grids and search one grid at a time. Eventually, they always find the needle.
- French people are very romantic. They rely on inspiration. Drinking champagne and whistling, they cheerfully find the needle when inspiration strikes.
- Americans are open-minded and unconventional. They grab a broom and sweep the area, quickly finding the needle in the small pile of debris.
- Japanese emphasize cooperation. The two discuss how to search together—one looks from this side while the other looks from the other side—and they find the needle immediately.
- Chinese people, however, are different. Instead of thinking about how to find the needle, they focus on shifting blame and who is responsible.
Shifting blame, complaining about others, poor execution, and making excuses are like a viral infection in countless businesses and organizations. All of these issues stem from a lack of personal responsibility among organizational members. To address these common problems, the core lies in improving everyone's sense of responsibility.
