佛祖拈花,为何只有迦叶微笑?
https://www.xinjingjj.com/fxxw/63633.html 佛祖拈花,为何只有迦叶微笑? 一天,在灵山会上,大梵天王以金色菠萝花献佛,并请佛说法。可是,释迦牟尼如来佛祖一言不发,只是用拈菠萝花遍示大众,从容不迫,意态安详。当时,会中所有的人和神都不能领会佛祖的意思,唯有佛的大弟子摩诃迦叶尊者妙悟其意。破言为笑。于是,释迦牟尼将花交给迦叶,嘱告他说:吾有正法眼藏,涅椠秒心,实相无相,微妙法门,不立文字,教外别转之旨,以心印心之法传给你。 释迦牟尼佛祖在大庭广众之下,像这样一言不发,只是带在和他那不动生色的微笑,从容不迫,宁静安详,其中微妙究竟何在?
企業用人近親繁殖一代不如一代,這時你需要這種人才
https://www.businessweekly.com.tw/management/blog/3009063 摘要 變革管理客座教授-前王品集團副董事長兼總經理、現為成真咖啡董事長王國雄,分享一個企業要如何建立「人才池」,好讓自己的人才源源不絕。 學員問(以下簡稱問):想請教您當時在王品做內部創業,有遇到什麼樣的難題呢? 王國雄答(以下簡稱答):有時候內部還是會挑不到人,這時候你還要有第二個機制就是外聘,兩步一起來。外聘有一個好處,就是我們找外面已經在餐飲業裡頭當過總經理、或者代理一些新品牌的創業者、或者是從國外引進的,這種進到公司就會發生鯰魚效應。 一個公司如果全部都是近親繁殖,最後會一代不如一代。如果有外部人才,內部人才就知道說我不是只靠你們。透過這樣交叉運用,會就得到一個好效果。外部人才要培養,不能在需要的時候才急忙找一個,這樣失敗率會很高。當你越急,越不能找到對的人,跟談房租一樣:你如果一定要這個地點,保證你談的是高價;如果你可有可無,你會談到好價錢。所以一樣的道理,就是用儲備的概念去建人才池,人才池裡頭有內池、有外池,這樣就能保持良性競爭,永遠有好的人才可以挑。
