Then I continued: "I would like to take this opportunity to talk to you about the reform of Shangjiang City.
Everyone should have felt the tremendous changes in our Shangjiang City in the past two years. By vigorously promoting reforms, our state-owned enterprises have regained their vitality. The cars we jointly produced with Japan have been launched and are currently in the national market.
The sales are very good.
Our urban construction is also being vigorously promoted, and now there are construction sites everywhere in the city. By the end of this year, everyone will be able to see the new image of our city that is beginning to take shape. These are the results of our vigorous promotion of reforms, and are also the results of our
We are creating the future of Shangjiang City. Of course, we cannot help but see that many problems have arisen in the process of reform. For example, we have so many people laid off. The government has invested a lot in recent years, and the finances have been declining.
While improving, more deficits have been added, etc.
We cannot avoid these problems, nor can we not face them, but we can solve them.
Take the issue of laid-off workers, for example. I have talked about this issue on many occasions, and we have now solved the re-employment problem for a large number of people. In the future, we will continue to find ways to increase employment channels, provide funds, and policy support.
Let them start their own businesses. There are also other problems that our municipal government is confident and determined to solve. Of course, if we want to solve these problems, we must get the strong support of all the deputies of the National People's Congress and the strong support of the people of Shangjiang City.
Just support.
Here, what I want to share with you is how we can further reform, rather than talking too much about the problems that have arisen or will arise in the future. The reason is very simple: as long as we do things seriously, we will
There will definitely be many problems. What is our job? It is to solve problems.
Therefore, we should put the problem aside for the time being and think more about the issue of reform. Take the work we are currently doing in culture, education and health. I think our current thinking is still a bit conservative. Let's take a step forward.
The steps are still too small. The reason for this in the final analysis is one word: fear. What are we afraid of? Afraid of failure, afraid that the black hat on our heads will be gone after failure, afraid of being ridiculed by others after failure, afraid of what will be done to the country after failure
It will bring huge losses. Is that what everyone thinks?"
They all laugh.
I added: "In fact, such fear itself shows that our thinking is wrong. Why do we say this? First, why do we first think of failure instead of success? It is very simple. In the final analysis, it is because we have no self-confidence.
Second, if we study carefully before doing these things and evaluate the likelihood of success and what problems may arise, then we should have the confidence to carry out what we want to do bravely. Remember our industrial park
When it was first established, the municipal party committee gave me the land and the power to choose people independently, but nothing else. I didn't really have any confidence at that time, but later we boldly did it.
It also succeeded. This explains the problem very well.
Third, as I said before, it is not terrible to fail. We can start all over again. Our reform is a undertaking that has never been done before. We can only learn from experience while doing it. Although it is dangerous to cross the river by feeling the stones, since
If we are crossing the river by feeling the stones, we will definitely not put ourselves into an extremely dangerous situation casually. Our goal is to cross the river, not to drown in the river. Is that right?"
Everyone laughs.
I also smiled and said: "I'm sorry, everyone. Today I'm asking all representatives to express their opinions and views on our government work report. Please talk more. I just said a few words, so I think it's just a suggestion."
Then, under the auspices of Director Sun, representatives of the National People’s Congress began to speak continuously. I listened carefully and took notes carefully. This attitude is very necessary, and I also found that some of the representatives of the National People’s Congress had the same ideas.
Very good.
One of the National People's Congress representatives said in his speech, "Currently there are many problems in education in our country, and these problems are also very prominent in the actual education work in Shangjiang City.
In recent years, as education has created huge wealth for society, it has also caused many social problems. Education has been and is still undergoing criticism from all sides, and the spearhead is directed at the 'industrialization of education'. The issue of industrialization of education is
It has previously played a positive role that cannot be underestimated. First, the industrialization of education has effectively alleviated the country’s serious lack of financial investment in education;
Second, the industrialization of education has effectively boosted domestic demand despite the economic downturn;
Third, while the traditional concept of "only those who are well-educated" and society's evaluation standards for talents remain unchanged, the industrialization of education has greatly improved the education level of the people and accordingly reduced the social pressure on young people of the right age.
However, the industrialization of education has also brought huge negative impacts. For example, high tuition fees have discouraged children from low-income families, resulting in inequality of educational opportunities. Many psychological problems among students have brought management crises to schools.
In addition, the industrialization of education has also brought about problems such as the decline in teaching quality and the decline in teachers' professional ethics. At present, our high school education pursues short-term effects for the sake of enrollment rate and cannot form an education system at all. The loss of China's excellent traditional culture is accelerating.
Research by foreign experts shows that many people have obstacles in listening, speaking, reading and writing. Problems such as not being able to communicate with others, not being able to write articles, and not understanding the specific meaning between the lines are also quite common among our students.
There is also the fact that in terms of teaching staff construction, we only pay attention to the teacher structure and not the personality quality of teachers; for the basic conditions for teacher appointment: support the leadership of the Communist Party of China, love the socialist motherland, consciously implement the party's line, principles, and policies; comply with disciplines
Requirements such as abiding by the law and school rules and regulations; being a role model, teaching and educating; caring for and caring for students, and having good professional ethics are in vain. Pre-service training and teacher qualification examinations are often just a formality, which makes the ideological, moral and professional quality of the current teaching team
Integrity is deeply questioned...
Therefore, I hope that our Shangjiang City should pay attention to such issues in future education reforms."
I asked Director Sun next to me in a low voice: "Who is this person?"
He answered me in a low voice: "He is the principal of our second elementary school. His name is Huo Siwen. Some people jokingly call him an educated driver."
I almost laughed, but I forced myself to nod.
After Huo Siwen finished his speech, I asked him: "Principal Huo, how do you think our school should be managed?"
He said: "I am the principal of a primary school, and I have completed the national work of popularizing the ninth grade.
It is not difficult to manage a school like ours. But as an educator, I must often think about some of the problems that exist in our education. Although I do not agree with the industrialization of education, I think we should manage it like a company.
To manage the school, there are rules to follow and rewards and punishments are clear.
As a product of the school for students, cultivating excellent and qualified talents is our only goal. As for our teaching team, we should organically combine increasing their income with cultivating their quality.
Of course, these are just some of my personal thoughts. After all, our school is a small school, and this kind of management model cannot be used in our school. However, I agree with the views just mentioned by Mayor Feng. At present, we have many problems in education.
The problem requires us to boldly reform and boldly explore ways and means of reform."
To be honest, there are indeed things in this person's speech that interest me, such as his mention of using a corporate model to manage schools. But I think his speech has a very purpose.
Nowadays, many cadres in Shangjiang City have heard about my promotion of Yu Yong and Ma Li, and many people also praise me for my accurate vision of people. This is not surprising, because these two people are doing very well in their current jobs.
Very good.
In fact, I am very proud of these two things, but I don’t think that I have seen people correctly. To be precise, it should be that the way I examine them is correct. When you look at people, you can often only see what you see.
Its external things, and many people’s external things can easily deceive others.
.So I asked them to answer very practical questions, and I was very satisfied with the answers they gave me. After all, what I need is people who can do things and have real abilities, so when I was inspecting them, I
Pay more attention to their thinking.
Of course, there are also people who are good at doing one thing in theory, but their actual work ability is very poor. However, I always feel that there are not many people like this. The story of Ma Di in ancient times exaggerated this situation, so that
Some people think that people like this are everywhere in reality.
My idea is this: a person who has a complete knowledge structure in theory, or has a broad mind that ordinary people do not have, such a person can easily combine practical work with his own theoretical knowledge as long as he goes through practice.
The key to the problem is: as a superior, you should give them such an opportunity, otherwise it will be a waste of talent.
The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences once issued a "China Talent Development Report", which pointed out that my country's human resource advantages have not been fully utilized, and the waste of talent is shocking, resulting in economic consumption and economic losses exceeding nearly one trillion yuan every year.
There are three main manifestations of talent waste: first, the trend of high consumption of talents is very obvious; second, internal consumption is serious and competition is excluded; third, idle waste of talents is also quite common. What are the roots of these manifestations?
In fact, it is caused by systemic defects and problems. For example, in the process of recruiting talents, especially in the process of recruiting college graduates, many employers blindly pursue high consumption of talents, which makes the employment expectations of college graduates high.
If there is no shortage of talent, it will lead to a double backlog of talents either in society or in employers, and they will not be able to play their intended role.
In the process of using talents, some unit leaders treat talents based on their personal likes, dislikes and proximity. They lack the necessary tolerance for those who are capable and high-level, but have distinctive personalities and are not very obedient; while they treat those who are more obedient but have mediocre abilities.
people put it to great use.
Especially in the process of evaluating talents, the lack of a scientific and reasonable evaluation mechanism has, on the one hand, led to the misalignment of talents and mediocrity, seriously dampening the enthusiasm of talents; on the other hand, the unscientific evaluation mechanism has also led to the pursuit of quantity and the neglect of talents.
The tendency towards quality has seriously affected the cultivation and development of talents' independent innovation capabilities.
In terms of the mechanism of talent competition, since the healthy competition mechanism for talents has not been fully established, excessive competition and insufficient competition for talents exist at the same time, which leads to disordered talent competition and internal friction among talents to varying degrees.
.In addition, in terms of the environment for the growth of talents, the institutional environment, public opinion environment, interpersonal environment, etc. that are conducive to the growth of talents have not yet been finally formed. There are even bad phenomena of suppressing talents in some places and units.
There are still many flaws and problems in our country's management system such as talent selection, use, evaluation, competition and talent growth. These flaws and problems not only greatly reduce the function of the talent management system itself, but also cause negative impacts and institutional contradictions.
continue to appear, thus exacerbating the vicious cycle of talent waste.
I heard about something not long ago: a talent that our Jiangnan Province introduced as a treasure a few years ago was actually idle until the beginning of the year due to various reasons. Due to work arrangements, in recent years, this talent has been
Leaders at all levels reported this more than a hundred times, but every time they reported it they ended in disappointment. Later, this matter was implemented with the personal concern of Secretary Fang.
From an economic point of view, talent is a resource and a "production factor". It "organizes" and "integrates" production factors such as labor, capital, and land, and then forms a specific production and operation process. The United States
When talking about entrepreneurial talents, economist Schumpeter believed that they are people who creatively destroy the original combination of production factors, that is, people who innovate; their talent lies in their "specialized judgment on the allocation of scarce resources."
sexual decision-making ability.
Innovation is scarce, the elements that invest in innovation are scarce, and the talents who make innovative decisions are even more scarce. These characteristics of entrepreneurial talents should generally represent the characteristics of all talents. From this perspective, the "organization" of talents
The resource of "factors of production" is undoubtedly a scarcer resource. The scarcer the resource, the greater its value. Therefore, wasting talents is a mistake, and it is also a detrimental effect on economic development and social progress.
crime.
Nowadays, many people value tangible resources, such as land, capital, etc. to the extent of hunger and thirst, but many of them only pay lip service to the value of human resources.
In fact, including our Shangjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, we all have the same problem, because we have not formulated a management mechanism for talent selection, use, evaluation, competition and talent growth. Although I have also
I have thought about this problem, but I can only do nothing about it because this is not what I, the mayor, should do. Such things are within the scope of Secretary Rong's power.
And it’s not convenient for me to suggest it to her. On the one hand, as a mayor, I am very taboo about such things. On the other hand, it is very difficult for a place to establish such mechanisms. There are too many things involved.
There are many, and there are also problems with leadership concepts. (To be continued)
