1. Plan for future development... Today, most shares of non-family companies are in the hands of fund managers. For these greedy and impatient people, the main purpose of holding stocks is to make money and then exit. They
There is no long-term interest in the company. Many companies reward and punish managers based on short-term gains. Managers' compensation is often related to the size of the company, which makes senior officials often harm the long-term interests of the company in order to maximize short-term gains.
.
In family businesses, the business is regarded as a valuable tool to realize the family's mission and to support the family, employees and other stakeholders for a long time. Owning the business is to cultivate it, not to quickly sell it for capital gains. They are very interested in success.
The definition is very broad, it can be either technological achievements or the long-term healthy development of the enterprise. That is, for them, profits and income are neither the ultimate goal nor a means to increase stock prices, but to achieve other priority goals.
the result.
In many non-family companies, CEOs only focus on short-term performance. In order to achieve profit growth, they emphasize tactics rather than strategies. They quickly increase profits through cost cutting, process reengineering and layoffs, and quickly increase corporate income through mergers and acquisitions. In the short term,
Within the period, corporate income may increase, but from
In the long run, layoffs will lead to brain drain and low morale, and the integration issue after the merger is also very difficult, because different corporate cultures and processes cannot be integrated. Unfortunately, when the problems are revealed, it is difficult to participate in the process at the time.
Most of the senior decision-makers have either retired or gone to other companies.
In family-controlled companies, leaders often have been at the helm of the company for decades. Tadao Aoi, the general manager of Japan's famous Marui Department Store, has been in charge for 33 years, and Shoichiro Toyoda is 80 years old and can still make the highest judgment on the company's development. Here
During this period, they must both enhance the organization's strengths and enhance its reputation. They strive to do this by advancing the organization's mission. The organization's mission is the soul of the entire enterprise, regardless of
Is it technological innovation, quality or service? It is the symbol of the enterprise and the basis of the company's strategy and competitive advantage. For example, Toyota's three major missions for itself are: for mankind, for society, and for the earth; people-oriented; and never stop.
Improvement. Even during the oil crisis and Japan's economic downturn, Toyota did not forget to invest in research and development and process transformation. These investments brought huge returns...
2. Attitude towards employees... Managers who are driven by financial performance usually do not believe that employees need training and development for the long-term interests of the company; instead, they regard employees as tools to quickly achieve goals. Therefore, many companies lay off employees arbitrarily
Reorganization, as a result, reduces employees' loyalty to the company, leading to the loss of excellent employees and the knowledge they carry.
Successful family businesses have a longer-term vision. The leadership of the company realizes that in order to achieve the mission of several generations, it must have a stable, active, and loyal workforce.
This family business attaches great importance to demonstrating its strong values and constantly instills them in its employees. It has built a good welfare system for employees on the basis of lifetime employment. Report from "Nihon Keizai Shimbun", 2007 Japanese Enterprise Summer
In terms of bonuses, Nintendo of the Yamauchi family continues to maintain its No. 1 spot, with each employee receiving an average of 169,406 yen (more than RMB 100,000) in summer bonuses. Toyota, which ranks second, is 1,433,420 yen higher.
Japanese yen. While paying generous salaries, companies also design interesting jobs for employees, paving the way for their progress. Toyota has long regarded "educating people" as its business goal before "creating things". Therefore, it not only
When cars are produced, talents are produced.
3. Inheritance system... Unlike China's property inheritance system of "equally divided among all sons", Japan implements the "primogeniture system", in which most of the family's property is passed on to the eldest son. Although the eldest son has various responsibilities for his younger brothers.
, such as arranging for your younger brother to work in a company, but he cannot be related by blood.
Guanxi gave them part of the property, and other children could not stay at home. This inheritance system had a profound impact on Japanese family businesses, avoiding the fate of Chinese companies that were divided among several sons after the founder passed away.
Long-term growth in enterprise size is guaranteed.
Since the relationship between Japanese family members is weaker than that of Chinese families, the responsibilities and obligations they bear to each other are also relatively weak. There have long been some social habits that are not based on blood relationships, and associations based on non-blood relationships have emerged.
.As such an organization, the various characters within the family do not necessarily have to be related by blood.
For example, as long as the adoption procedures are fulfilled, the eldest son's seat can be replaced by an outsider, and people do not even think that adopting a son outside the circle of relatives is a dishonorable thing. In addition, the Japanese prefer to pass on the inheritance rights.
To outsiders, and not to biological sons with low abilities. This ensures the healthy development of the enterprise.
Fourth, excellent learning ability... As we all know, Japan's lifetime employment system has its shortcomings. The seniority sequence creates the phenomenon of seniority and overstaffing of senior personnel. More importantly, it encourages employees' dependence and leads to a lack of confidence in the spirit of innovation.
suppression. However, Japanese family businesses are keenly aware of this problem. By learning from advanced Western management systems, they have basically managed to exploit the strengths and avoid the weaknesses of the lifetime employment system.
For example, Japan's Sony Corporation focuses on three concepts: supply chain management, six sigma and eva (economic added value).
The reference systems of the first two are Dell and General Electric in the United States respectively, while EVA is about shareholder value creation and is also produced by American companies.
"99% of Panasonic's management is the same as that of Western companies. Panasonic's financial planning and management system is learned from Philips in Europe, and its production management is learned from American companies, and this 1% difference comes from Japanese culture."——
The president of Panasonic said when evaluating Panasonic Company.
"Finally, I made a section!" Wan Mubai continued: "Not all Japanese family businesses are excellent. In fact, the ones I investigated were more negative reports about them. For example,
The discord between the owner and the manager, the profligate spending of his children, and the indulgence and misfortune of life. The nature of the family business determines that he is bound to encounter
Problems such as corruption, difficulty in governance, and pampering of future generations. However, it is amazing that many Japanese family businesses can continue to thrive for decades or even centuries and defeat their competitors. This is consistent with their long-term vision and love for their employees.
The attitude of the son, the scientific inheritance system, and the excellent learning ability are inseparable! China’s economy is in a period of transformation.
The previous method of relying on large state-owned enterprises and government consumption to stimulate the economy has faced unprecedented challenges. Faced with the possible second wave of global economic and financial crisis, the United States used blaming China's currency as an excuse, and Europe used blame-shifting as a way out.
.The economic data of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund once again show that our country is increasingly becoming the global economic growth
The engine. And the development of this engine is inseparable from the rise and growth of the private economy. I sincerely hope that Chinese family businesses that are in the rising stage can learn from Japanese family businesses that are also in the Confucian cultural circle and break the trend of being rich for only three generations.
The curse has become a booster for China and even the world’s economy! Father...that’s all I want to say..."
Bang bang bang... A burst of applause came from outside the door. The door opened, and a middle-aged man walked in with a girl. As soon as the girl came in, Wan Mubai's eyes immediately lit up. He had never seen this before.
Such a beautiful girl, from this moment on, Wan Mubai knew that he had been deeply infatuated with her...
"Oh! Let me introduce, this is the Yagyu president of the Japanese Yagyu Federation of the Yagyu family. He is an old friend of mine. Please call him Uncle Yagyu."
Wan Mubai's father quickly introduced him to his son. The man in front of him was a big shot! President Yagyu looked at Wan Mubai. The young man was not that old, but he could sum up so many constructive things! It seems... he
He is a good candidate for business management!
Seeing President Yagyu praising him so much, Wan Mubai smiled awkwardly and said humbly: "Uncle Yagyu, thank you very much. I also checked a lot of things, combined with long-term market research, to find that these are obviously relatively simple."
Compared with Uncle Yagyu and my father, they are far behind! Especially the Yagyu Federation that you manage, Uncle Yagyu. I have heard about your deeds! They say you are the Buffett of Japan..."
Hahahaha... President Yagyu smiled, this kid is so good at talking, interesting! Interesting... At such a young age, he can understand other people's preferences, and he is also a good candidate for business management. To be honest, at that time, Yagyu would
Chang really wants his daughter to marry him!
But the sad thing is that afterwards, President Yagyu and Miko Yagyu mentioned it, but the damn girl rejected it! The damn girl's only reason was that she didn't like it...
Of course, those were all things that happened later. At that time, although Wan Mubai's eyes lit up when he saw Miko Yagyu, he did not dare to act too presumptuously in front of the two elders!
The two business tycoons were talking about their affairs. Taking this opportunity, Wan Mubai and Yagyu Miko were sitting on the sofa in the office. At this moment, the distance between the two was very close, only about one meter...
Observing her from close range, it was a pity that Wan Mubai did not dare to stare at her directly, for fear of arousing the other party's resentment and making her feel that he was a prodigal! Therefore, Wan Mubai just used his peripheral vision to secretly look at her.
Glancing at her... smelling the fragrance emanating from Miko Yagyu's body... is that a faint body fragrance? Wan Mubai gradually became intoxicated...
