Your decisions about allocating your personal time, energy, and talent shape your lifes strategy. I have a bunch of “businesses” that pete for these resources: Im trying to have a rewarding relationship with my wife, raise great kids, contribute to my munity, succeed in my career, and contribute to my church. And I have exactly the same problem that a corporation does. I have a limited amount of time, energy and talent. How much do I devote to each of these pursuits? When people with a high need for achievement have an extra half hour of time or an extra ounce of energy, theyll unconsciously allocate it to activities that yield the most tangible acplishments. Our careers provide the most concrete evidence that were moving forward. You ship a product, finish a design, plete a presentation, close a sale teach a class, publish a paper, get paid, get promoted. In contrast, investing time and energy in your relationships with your spouse and children typically doesnt offer the same immediate sense of achievement. Kids misbehave every day. Its really not until 20 years down the road that you can say, 2. Create A Family Culture. Its one thing to see into the foggy future with a acuity and chart the course corrections a pany must make. But its quite another to persuade employees to line up and work cooperatively to take the pany in that new direction. When there is little agreement, you have to use “power tools” coercion, threats, punishments and so on, to secure cooperation. But if employees ways of working together succeed over and over, consensus begins to form. Ultimately, people dont even think about whether their way yields success. They embrace priorities and follow procedures by instinct and assumption rather than by explicit decision, which means that theyve created a culture. Culture, in pelling but unspoken ways, dictates the proven, acceptable methods by which member s of a group address recurrent problems. And culture defines the priority given to different types of problems. It can be a powerful management tool. 第 6 页 共 6 页
