Classic quotations of Tang Jun

The first part: Tang Jun's life sentiment.

-Views on setbacks

In my opinion, success is gratifying, but failures and setbacks are even more memorable. The truly successful people are those who can overcome difficulties.

-Perception of passion

A successful life really needs passion, but it also needs the skills to control and keep it. If life is a long run, passion is like kindling. We need a torch with good quality, which can cross the wind and rain, experience frost and snow, and protect the fire to the end.

-Understanding of flexibility

Everything is flexible. One method doesn't work, there are many other methods. It is difficult to follow the rules and stick to the rules.

After solving the visa crisis, I summed up three styles of doing things: China, American and Japanese. When encountering such difficulties, the first thing that China people will think of is whether they can make connections and find out which relatives and friends are from the Immigration Bureau. If you can't find a relationship, you will probably be at a loss. The Japanese may teach you, and then send a few letters to the embassy persistently, reiterating the importance of the performance. But this will definitely not work, because the American character will never easily deny the decision that has been made. The way Americans deal with it is to find another way and find different ideas. I understand that on the surface, politicians are leading the United States, but in the end, it is up to voters to decide who will be the next president. As a voter, I will consult with Members, and the government departments will certainly help me deal with this matter seriously.

This experience made me "cunning". Before I do anything, I will see where I am. I don't think in a single country, neither in China, nor in Japan or the United States. Now these three ways of thinking have been completely integrated with me and become my own things. This is obviously very beneficial to my career.

I know when I need to rely on my own diligence and hard work, when I need to find another way to open my joints, and more importantly, I know how to use the resources around me to find opportunities.

-Perception of success

Many people ask me: What is the secret of your success? I can give a simple answer: simplicity+diligence. Be simple and diligent. This is the core component of my torch.

-the feeling that personality determines fate

If a person doesn't even want to change his personality, then don't talk about success.

If a person has learned nothing in college (as I did in the first three years of college), do one thing: change his personality. This is the biggest gain.

Personality is a habit, as long as you persist in changing, you will definitely change.

-Understanding of learning

Although mechanical repetitive learning is a torment, there is no other way but persistence.

-Understand the rules

Why do I say my success can be replicated? That's because everything in the world, from the universe to a flower and a fruit, actually follows some very simple laws. As long as we master these laws, we can constantly copy them, just like the kaleidoscope we played when we were young, and create rich and colorful life contents.

The operation of everything, from the universe to a flower and a fruit, actually follows some very simple rules. So is language. As long as we master these laws, we can constantly copy and create complex content.

-Lucky feeling

Looking back on my career at Microsoft, I don't admit that I am lucky, because luck can't get any benefits at Microsoft.

-understanding of the gains and losses of life

After all, there is nothing to worry about and nothing to lose in life.

-Understanding of persistence

Life is like the process of plant growth. As long as you work hard, there will be flowers and fruits.

-Enjoy the feeling of life

My evaluation of my present personality is: strategic realist, tactical romantic. I think the problem usually takes three years as the cycle, and I am very clear about the strategic objectives of these three years. Once a goal is set, it will be achieved in various romantic ways. I object to the vulgarity of the implementation method, which in my opinion is tactical inferiority. I want to enjoy every process of achieving my goal.

-Views on life choices

Once the sea was difficult for water, if I can't continue to pursue challenges and passion, I choose another sky.

-Understand the importance and skills of communication.

As long as you have a good communication mentality and find a suitable communication method, there is no problem that cannot be solved.

I later realized the importance of communication skills, which was better than all my professional courses. I firmly believe that people are plastic and changeable. If you learn to communicate, you can be a good employee and a good leader.

Communication requires low mentality and many skills. This skill is definitely not innate, but needs constant training the day after tomorrow.

-the feeling of being a man

There are many people working in Microsoft in China, and I am the only one who seized this opportunity. I think this is due to another survival rule I explored at Microsoft: being a man.

Caring for others must come from the heart, which is the foundation and foundation of being a man.

Many great successes are actually accumulated by a little effort, and being a man is the most important part of these small efforts.

Upward, grateful and caring-these three characters are what people need most. If a person has good ability and good personality, it is difficult to succeed.

-Perception of execution.

Many people say execution, which means doing one well, and I mean doing one can do two and three. This is what I think is my most successful place at Microsoft.

Execution depends on diligence.

If a successful enterprise uses percentage to calculate its success factors, business model accounts for 20%, market opportunity accounts for 30%, and the remaining 50% is the execution of the enterprise.

-perception of interest choice at different stages of life.

The most interesting thing is that skiing, a sport that pursues excitement and personal enjoyment, is almost synchronized with my entrepreneurial journey of taking risks and conquering the world alone. After joining Microsoft, my main hobby became basketball, a sport that pays more attention to teamwork. In this way, life has its own wonders.

-Perception of ritual

I am a person who pays special attention to ceremony, because ceremony will leave a deep memory for people, and at the same time make people feel that they have been fully respected and valued. People in China pay attention to realism in their way of thinking, but many people fail to notice the importance of ceremony in enterprise management. The ceremony is actually a show and a symbol of the strength of the enterprise in all aspects.

Chapter two: Tang Jun's attitude towards life.

-Tang Jun's gratitude mentality

All the previous experiences are the only way for me to grow up. If I am satisfied with myself today, I should thank everything and everyone on my past life path.

-Tang Jun's theory of "success 4+ 1"

"Success 4+ 1", 4 stands for wisdom, diligence, passion and opportunity respectively, and 1 stands for character.

There is no fixed definition of a good character. Simply put, it is to make others like you. Take out a piece of paper, write down your favorite personalities among your 10 friends, and then turn them into your own. This is a good character.

Unequal opportunities. It is for those who are diligent, those who are brave enough to fight for it, and those who are one step ahead. Diligence is not only the necessary way to pursue success, but also our attitude towards life. Only hard work can really lead you to achieve your goals in life. This is what I want to give to every young friend.

Passion is something that comes from the heart and bleeds blood. Once you have passion for everything, the chances of success will be much greater. Because passion will make you pay attention to it, devote yourself to it and enjoy it continuously. When you enjoy the pleasure of achievement, you will continue your passion, thus forming a benign passion cycle. Compare your life with yourself, even if there is only a little progress, but make you more passionate today than you were yesterday.

The ability to use knowledge is wisdom. What enterprises need to learn is not to give you a book, so that you can study for three months and get a good grade. But to give you a book and produce a result every day. This is a fast learning method. Therefore, I think it doesn't matter whether the grades of the courses I studied in the university are good or bad at all. You should try to do this: study with a book for three days at the beginning of school, and then take the exam-even if you only get 60% right, you must be a good student!

Opportunities are definitely unfair, and opportunities only belong to those who are prepared. . . Life will encounter many obstacles. If you avoid them, you may miss a very important opportunity. . . In fact, weakness doesn't mean you have to give in, you have to give up! If you choose to give in and give up, then the opportunity will definitely leave you. Choose direct collision? The result must be a broken head and failure. What should I do at this time? You know, there are three kinds of opportunities: the first one is given by others, the second one is won by yourself, and the third one is operated by yourself. Bypass is one of the best ways to operate opportunities, especially for the disadvantaged.

-Tang Jun's career goals

My pursuit is to be the benchmark of professional managers in China, and professional managers are my career. For such a pursuit and career, suffering is also fun.

-Tang Jun's selection criteria

My request is simple. The first is learning ability. The knowledge learned in the university is completely different from the knowledge needed in the enterprise. Therefore, strong learning ability is very important for work. The second is the attitude towards work. I always believe that the IQ gap between people is not that big, unless you are a prodigy like Gates. Even though I am not as clever as you, I can reach the same level as you as long as I work harder than you. In this sense, I tend to give more opportunities to those who are good at learning and enterprising, rather than those who think they are smart. In my eyes, learning ability and diligence are far more important than college and professional background.

-Tang Jun's core competitiveness

For me, the core competitiveness that is valuable at any time in my life is not afraid to start all over again. Every seemingly low starting point is the only way to a higher peak. There is no achievement that can't be let go at any time. This mentality can make people invincible.

Only by finding your own core competitiveness and giving full play to it can you stand out from tens of thousands of people.

-Tang Jun's management style

My management style is sharp, but the way is softer. I take purpose as the management principle, and I can achieve it.

-Tang Jun's career planning

Everyone's career should have a good plan, not blind efforts. Some people only know how to work hard, but have no plan. Some people have plans, but they are unrealistic. . . . In my career, I plan step by step, and I move forward step by step towards my plan. . . . I've been planning for myself, about three years, which is a reasonable planning interval.

-Tang Jun's professional way of doing things

When you enter an enterprise, you will find that there are many problems in the enterprise (especially in China). What shall we do? Many people take the form of complaints. But complaining is the simplest, most direct and most ineffective way. Young people must not complain when they come to the company, because many people are smarter than you. They have complained many times, and you are nothing more than N+ 1 time. Someone will be better than this complainer. He will put forward some suggestions to solve the problem and suggest that the company do this and that. You think these suggestions are great, but from the perspective of leaders, they all belong to pediatrics. Maybe the leader will say this suggestion in person, but he forgot it as soon as he got out of the office. You have spent a lot of time giving advice to the leader, but the leader will not adopt it, because no one knows whether the plan will succeed. So what we have to do in the enterprise is not to complain, not to make comments and suggestions, but to really make some substantial improvements to the company.

-Tang Jun's career orientation

The problem does exist. And from the outside, it is particularly easy to find problems. But often only people in this department know where the real crux lies and what should be done in the end to solve the problem. Therefore, we must do our best in our posts and improve ourselves. This is also a very important workplace rule.

-Tang Jun's magic weapon for survival in the workplace

I have been the boss of a company, and people who know that the boss can only make suggestions are called picky people. Such people tend to annoy the boss. The boss will have a good impression on people who can put forward both problems and solutions, but generally they will not reuse them. Besides the above two points, the boss trusts most is the person who can demonstrate the feasibility of the scheme. These personal experiences and summaries have become my magic weapon to survive in the Microsoft workplace.

The third part: Tang Jun's suggestion on becoming a professional manager.

-Advice for newcomers to the workplace

After entering the society, at least half of people will find that their jobs are not your type. Can you not do it if you don't like it? Society is not that simple. Society is not what you think. Do it if you want, and don't do it if you don't want. A student who has just left school has no core competitiveness. Therefore, everyone should learn to do the jobs they don't like well first, and then try to change the environment after having their own core competitiveness.

This habit should be gradually formed from the university stage. To tell the truth, this is a rather painful process. But if you want to survive and develop in a competitive environment, you must do so.

The first job is not choosing a good job or a good salary, but choosing a good company.

-Interpreting the great significance of human resource recruitment

After a long time, when I have the power to decide the fate of others, I especially cherish the use of this power. Many young people who have been interviewed by my hand know that I will never be stingy as long as I can give them a chance. I think, for these young people, I am the one standing behind the door. As long as possible, how I hope to open that door more for them and let them enter the wider world safely.

-Suggestions on the timing of job hopping

If you feel comfortable working in a company, you need to find new development space.

-Understanding of salary

Salary is the embodiment of the value of professional managers. Of course, salary needs to be won, but designing salary needs to make a complete plan from the beginning of your career. There are two kinds of people who shouldn't talk to the boss about salary:

One is a newcomer to the workplace. At this time, you should think more about the industry and work that suits you, and focus on accumulating experience. There is no point in pursuing salary excessively. Generally speaking, after working for 7~ 10 years, you will have the opportunity to earn all the money you earned before 10/year.

The other is someone who has become a professional manager. At this point, companies in need will have a clear understanding of your salary in advance, and will definitely give conditions that are higher than your original salary or even several times your original salary. At this time, you should consider more about choosing the right enterprise.

In between, people who are in the primary and intermediate stages of career promotion should bravely fight for the promotion of their positions and salaries, because if they don't fight for it, they will often lose the opportunity to improve themselves.

Based on the professional pyramid, the spire and the bottom of the tower should not talk about wages, but should try their best to fight for them. The best time to get a raise is to work for about 7~ 10 years.
