What does the spirit of Shanxi merchants inspire modern enterprise management?

Enlightenment of Shanxi Merchants' Spirit to Modern Enterprise Management

The system and strategy of Shanxi merchants' management are temporary and the product of their specific historical conditions, but the positive spirit and business philosophy contained in them can always guide our actions and enlighten us no matter how the environment changes.

1. Conceptual innovation

In the shadow of the feudal society's concept of "valuing Confucianism over business", they were able to put the last businessmen in the traditional society in the first place, advocating the atmosphere of worshipping business, which showed that Shanxi businessmen were no longer farmers in concept, had bid farewell to the traditional concept of treating businessmen as traitors, and had the thinking and spirit of real businessmen. Shanxi merchants took the lead in thoroughly breaking the shackles of ideas. They have made their own achievements through business, taking the lead in developing border trade, competing for salt profits and creating draft banks, all by renewing their concepts.

But innovation is always relative. With the change of environment, we need to innovate constantly. It is important to keep this spirit and concept.

When the environment has changed, enterprises can develop by making breakthroughs and innovations in ideas, but they will miss opportunities by sticking to the old ways. With the rapid development of the world, the popularity of the Internet and the development of society, every enterprise should constantly discover the changes in the environment, update its concepts and keep pace with the times, so as to find its own development opportunities.
