Recently, Tan Xuguang's speech "Shoot the functional management department! ” went viral on the Internet. At the beginning of May this year, Tan Xuguang aimed at the functional management department of Weichai Group, and directly reported the problems and disadvantages of the functional management department. Over 2,600 people participated online and offline, which can be said to be bad for cadres.” No mercy." From November 2021 to the present, Tan Xuguang has organized and held several meetings, repeatedly showing his sword to internal management. As a leading company in the industry with a revenue of more than 300 billion yuan, it is regarded as a "leader" in the eyes of others, but it has repeatedly "picked" on internal management and the style of cadres, which also shows Tan Xuguang's consistent "revolutionary spirit" since he took the helm of Weichai .

In 1998, when Tan Xuguang first took charge of Weichai, the company's book capital was only 60,000 yuan, the debt was as high as 300 million yuan, and more than 10,000 employees were owed wages for up to 6 months. what to do? "revolution"! The reform of the "three systems" of setting posts, staff, and staff, the reform of the "three systems" of personnel, employment, and distribution, and the reform of the "three systems" of separating the main and auxiliary, and facing the market, were pushed open one by one and smashed. "Iron rice bowl" broke the "big pot of rice".

In 2008, the international financial crisis broke out. At that time, Weichai’s wings were growing, but Tan Xuguang began to think about the sustainable development of the company. Cross-border mergers and acquisitions and mastering overseas high-quality resources were the “revolution” of strategic transformation and structural adjustment brought about by Tan Xuguang’s second decade at the helm of Weichai. Starting from the acquisition of Baudouin, to Ferretti, KION, Linde Hydraulics, Dematic, etc., overseas business now contributes nearly 40% of Weichai Group's revenue, and the group's cross-border index reaches 37.6%.

Today Weichai is a well-deserved industry leader. In 2020 and 2021, the revenue will exceed 300 billion yuan in a row, and the production and sales of engines will also exceed the 1 million mark for two consecutive years. Behind the halo, Tan Xuguang saw crisis and change first. Tan Xuguang has said many times, "Every time Weichai achieves a staged success, I will pour a pot of cold water to warn everyone not to be carried away by the victory."

In Tan Xuguang's view, the most important threats to the survival and development of an enterprise and an organization are often not sudden major disasters and changes, but precisely those burnout and laxity that are difficult to detect and accumulate slowly. In Tan Xuguang's eyes, the decline of passion is the biggest enemy of the cadre team. Some cadres have inflated themselves to the point of being unbearable, and the ability of cadres to fall behind seriously restricts the realization of Weichai's dream. "I can tell everyone that Weichai does not have a culture of enjoyment. Weichai's culture is a culture of passion! Happiness is achieved by struggle!" Tan Xuguang, in response to the problems of hedonism, mediocrity, and the decline of passion among Weichai cadres, has long been Two years ago, a big discussion on "work style and management improvement" was launched in the company, and many cadres who were slack in work style, average performance appraisal, and lazy in politics were dismissed, demoted, vetoed annual salary, and economic punishment. Wait for accountability. From November 2021, at the Weichai Group Democratic Life Conference, Tan Xuguang asked to carry out a "clean-up" of the style of leading cadres, to the beginning of January 2022 as a "chief examiner" to grade the middle and high-level cadres of the enterprise at the debriefing meeting, and then By April, a "diagnostic certificate" will be issued to the key minority of the cadre team, and until May the functional management department will be fired. Tan Xuguang just wants to make another "revolution" for the cadre team of the enterprise, so as to create a trillion-level industrial equipment enterprise group. Excellent cadre team.

Life is endless, "tossing" is endless! Tan Xuguang is one of the most revolutionary entrepreneurs in China. His inward self-revolution time and time again is the key to Weichai's success for more than 20 years; he has repeatedly scraped the bones to cure poison, eradicated accumulated defects, activated management cells, and injected continuous momentum into the development of Weichai.Editor/Xing Wentao
