Watching movies isn't necessarily all for fun, it may be for... Learn. This time, I would like to share a few movies that can inspire you from the perspective of the workplace. If you're confused about some issues, hopefully this list will help you.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Phoenix Robbery - the literacy of middle management</h1>
It's a disaster movie where a plane accidentally crashes in the desert, and the captain and a group of survivors are at a loss for the wreckage, when a passenger, Elliott, proposes to be the designer of the plane and calls on everyone to repair the plane and fly out of the desert.
However, food and water could only last for a month, which meant they had two choices: to hike to find the oasis, or to follow Elliot through his plan. From Elliott, we can see the qualities required for a middle manager.
He was energetic, always confidently calling the shots and insisting on his own judgment, all on the premise that he dared to bear the consequences. He also played a trick, deliberately withholding key information from his identity so as not to lose his authority, another adult social engineering case.
At the end of The Phoenix Robbery, they manage to get the plane to take off, with the survivors clutching their wings while Elliot sits in the cabin. This is the difference between a decision maker and an enforcer, who needs to accept more penalties when he fails and more benefits when he succeeds.
This story may make the workplace newcomers complain less, let the workplace elderly find a feasible path to promotion, if you want to make a name for yourself in the work, then you must learn to lead, find goals, make decisions, and take responsibility.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > penalty into gold – don't be superstitious empiricists</h1>
Although this is a movie about the baseball industry, it contains universal truths that can be applied to all walks of life. Billy was accidentally discovered by scouts, gave up a college scholarship to join the baseball team, but until he retired from the army, his grades were mediocre, and after becoming a scout, he turned to team manager.
At this point, he meets Peter, a technical man who advocates the use of data algorithms to pick players, thus bypassing scouting and forming a strong team with seemingly mediocre players, a theory that impresses Billy.
Billy naturally suffered a lot of obstacles when practicing the new rules, the most of which came from scouting: "We have experience and intuition, you can't win the game with data and statistics alone." Experience is a good thing to say that managers maintain authority, but this movie tells us not to be superstitious about people who are very committed to experience.
The upward passage in the workplace is limited, so once they reach a higher position, people will become conservative, afraid that new things will affect their status, and they will be called experience, so as to set artificial thresholds to hinder new people from entering the game.
The reason why Internet technology is developing rapidly is precisely because open source makes technology transparent, no one can use "experience" to fool new people, on the contrary, many traditional industries, old employees are always secretive about some knowledge that does not have technical content, and they are afraid that new people will learn. In fact, the development of the world is not clear, only by constantly thinking, in order to truly get their own rational self-confidence.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > History of Clear Sky Blood Battle – always treating yourself as an individual</h1>
During World War II, the US Air Force stationed in Germany in an attempt to force the other side to retreat by destroying the city, but the German army also arranged artillery and other weapons to deal with air raids, so every time a group of air forces went to war, there would always be two or three percent of the sacrifices.
The original generals of the Air Force were good to their opponents and often helped them cover up their mistakes, but after he was transferred, they brought in a new commander, Brigadier General Savage. Corresponding to the structure of the company, Savage is like a demonic leader, he treats his subordinates extremely harshly, and only a small mistake will be punished.
However, the Air Force soon found that under the high-intensity training, the casualty rate had dropped significantly, so they began to look at Shavic differently, but at this time, Brigadier General Shavic fell into mental illness, because he found that no matter how he trained, there would be casualties.
The average person would put himself in The Shoes of Brigadier General Savage to see the film, but when we look at it from the perspective of the Air Force, we will find that they have been in a passive state. In the workplace, fortunately there is no such cruel end goal, unfortunately when you have been enjoying having someone make decisions for you, without taking on too much pressure, you are also putting your fate in the hands of others.
If you don't have your own ultimate goal for your work, you can only be managed all the time. If you don't find yourself alone until the big company you work in closes and the leader you follow leaves, it's too late. Even if you are leaning against a tree, remember to set your own goals, not to be attached, but to truly think of yourself as an individual.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" >mobile policeman 2 – managing subordinate secrets</h1>
The protagonist of "Mobile Police 2", Goto, is a policeman who manages a group of irresponsible subordinates, and although he is in the system, he has his own ideas about justice, so he not only has to enter the gray area himself, but also convinces the team members to follow him.
In order to guide his subordinates to obey willingly, Goto laid out many innings, and although he said that he did not like to give orders, he had actually cut off their back road, leaving his subordinates with no second choice.
In addition, Goto will also take advantage of the self-esteem of professionals, such as saying, "Do you think it is good to be a policeman?" "To evoke the dignity of the police for their own ends."
Of course, this movie can also be used to think backwards to see through the secrets that the leader is trying to control you, which does not mean that you have to work against the leader, but works more self-willed.
No matter what your position in the workplace, the most important thing is to always stay awake, see the routines of others, and recognize your own abilities and goals, and occupy your own place in an increasingly inward society.
