Miss Sloane’s
2016 film caused huge controversy on the other side of the ocean due to its topic selection. However, the compact plot and the brilliant performance of the actors (especially Jessica Chastain) was the reason why it was in the 74th Golden Globe. Awarded Best Actress (Nomination) in a Feature Film in the film category, and some netizens said that if this film were not for its "politically incorrect" selection, it would have been nominated for an Oscar.
What's more worth mentioning is that this film is the first work of screenwriter Jonathan Pereira, which has to make me look forward to his follow-up works even more.
Back to the movie.
Ms. Sloan is a walking workplace textbook. There are at least three aspects, from the easiest to the most difficult. If all three passes are completed, then you will definitely be in the workplace, with an annual salary of at least 1 million.
First of all:
know your subject, know your subject
matter. The beginning of the
film is not long after the start of the morning meeting. Because there is another meeting, the morning meeting is very fast. The key information of everyone in the team has been clicked. Suddenly, Sloan asked the newcomer. Franklin: Let’s talk about shmallow cakes. Both cakes and biscuits are subject to sales tax, or one of them?
The subordinates said "I don't know", and then Ms. Sloan stared at it as if looking at an alien. In order to teach her subordinates, she told a slightly colorful joke:
One day, the pastor drove a car from the church. A young nun sent home. He said that the shifting effort put his hand on the nun's knee.
The young nun looked up at the priest and said, "Father, do you remember Luke 14th verse 10?" The
priest withdrew her hand, a little embarrassed.
Then the car stopped again at a red light, and the priest couldn't help putting his hand on the nun's lap again.
The nun again said, "Father, do you remember Luke 14th verse 10?" The
pastor apologized and said, "I don't have enough energy to spare."
After the priest sent the nun home, he took out the Bible. Turn to Luke chapter 14 verse 10, where it says: Friends, please come up some more, so that you can be glorified!
Know your own business, otherwise you will lose the perfect opportunity!
What does the boss want you to do, but you say you don’t know, the first time you can, and then absolutely not.
On the first day in the new company, she thought quickly and clearly, the division of labor was neat and clear, clear and not leaking. On the first day, she gave the employees of the new formula a stunner, and they were stunned.
And this is know your subject, this is professional!
Sloan minimized his sleep time and read a lot of relevant information:
When her subordinates said that her name was Esme Manucharian, she immediately said all the key information about this person: led the fight against hidden bans in Illinois;
when it comes to When spending on the campaign, the subordinates said the number 38. She just nodded in satisfaction, which also reflected that these little information had long been familiar to her.
Not only these bits and pieces of information, Sloan has already had tactics, what to do in the first step, what to do in the second step, and what to do in the third step, to convince the people below.
More importantly, after digesting all the complicated information, she has already had an insight-"winning female voters". This insight is the cornerstone of the entire campaign strategy and the key to victory or defeat. But this key insight does not need to be shared with subordinates the first time. On the first day of work, I don’t know if there is a foundation of trust. If this key information is leaked to the opponent, the opponent will know how to defend. Confirm that the team does have traitors.
The first step in all "wins" is to know your subject, which is the most basic professional.
Secondly
result-oriented
Goal Orientation
Most people are slaves to emotions, and never thought of controlling emotions. Everyone knows that emotions are your greatest enemy in achieving your goals, especially women.
In fact, I have always maintained an attitude of "correction must be over-corrected". Nowadays, most women in the workplace have no wolf nature, no wolf nature, no amount of "compassionate" will not help, because "makes people feel good" does not serve the "target bottom line". In Ms. Sloan’s place, the people who worked with her felt "not good", but it didn’t affect her eating up and down, and it didn’t affect her ability to take away 70% of the original troops after she quit, and one of the employees had just been killed by her. Ironically, the next second is to quit with her; it will not affect the old and new bosses to regard her as the company's most valuable asset, and try to keep (or cut off) them.
Sloan doesn't care whether she is "compassionate" or whether she makes people feel comfortable. When facing each other's emotions, she calms down, and she even uses other people's emotions to achieve her goals.
She guessed Esme’s life experience and planned to put Esme into the spotlight as a gun expert, making her a household name. When her fame reached its peak, Sloan revealed Esme’s life experience in a debate and let Rob The call for control reached its climax. But Esme's heart was cast a huge shadow because he brought up the old things again. In the dressing room, the two women had an honest conversation. Sloan understood Esme’s emotions, but still knew what her ultimate goal was. She said: “I have a responsibility to use all the resources around me. This matter allows us to Get more attention. If you don’t say it, you are negligent. I understand that you have your own emotions and your own life, but I am not responsible for them. I am only responsible for this case. If the two conflict, I Can only choose the more important one."
Emotions and goals, she chose the goal firmly.
In the face of other people's emotional judgments, she didn't care at all. For example, when a female CEO said "you are just a man without a second child", she is noncommittal because she wants a donation; for example, after confessing Esme, she faces the new boss's serious questioning: "Have you ever had a normal life?" , When you were young? How did this kind of distorted thinking breed in your mind?"
Sloan didn't make a big noise. She calmly said "guess i am just a piece of work". Here, piece of work has self-deprecation and pride.
Because she is not responsible for her emotions, she is only responsible for the results. She knows where she will go in the future. She doesn't care what people next to her think about her. To be more precise, she doesn't care about the judgment of the goal that has no critical effect. , Because she only valued one-to
win
I was hired to win, not to lose slower.
This is a kind of self-confidence, but also a kind of blood. Helplessly in the general environment of China, most women have "pleasant personality" and hope that others like themselves. For this reason, they dare not offend others, dare not say serious things. If these are not dared, winning is naturally an insulator.
Finally,
foresight
understands
that the key to lobbying is to gain insights, predict the opponent's tricks, and then design countermeasures. The winner will always be one step ahead of the opponent, and only after the opponent has revealed his trump card. Be sure to take advantage of the situation and prevent the opponent from fighting back.

- "Ms. Sloan,"
Who says the business community, the workplace is not So what?
Shopping malls are like battlefields, with fierce competition: rivals, big market situation, resources that can be deployed, organizational structure... All entrepreneurs have a strong sense of crisis. They will not sleep on the success of today, but forever. All thinking about what to do next. And this next step is to judge the overall market trend, control one's existing capabilities, and predict the opponent's tricks.
Entrepreneurs are doing the "future".
Only those who really see the long-term will be able to take the lead in the future competition. Some people say that I am alone and beg to lose. I have no opponents. No one has done what I have done. I am nonsense! Your goal is your opponent, you have no goal? It shows that you don't have a future at all.
The so-called "trends" you can see on the Internet are the trends of this big era. They are very general, and elementary school students will point out one or two things. However, how to integrate with the current situation of our side and the enemy, the personalities of the personnel, the way of recruiting, etc., is another matter. This "game" has to be meaningful and valuable. And to achieve such a "second game", you have to practice countless times in your mind to truly grasp the essence.
Sloan knows the opponent’s advantage: money is not a problem, and he also knows the opponent’s dead end: female voters do not support them, and predict that when the gun control faction grows stronger, the gun faction will target Sloan personally. She went into the water. So on this basis, we started to do the game from DAY 1:
1: Secretly visit influential female leaders to raise funds
2: Give a little "bait" for gun owners to push her to the approval court for the final Perform Jedi Strikes Back
3: Define all available resources around you and how to use them, including a
sentence I have heard before, saying: There are actually only three types of people in the world: people who do things, people who do things, and people who do things. The person who makes the game.
Only by doing well within one's own business, being goal-oriented, seeing the long-term, seeing the overall situation, and tempering yourself repeatedly, can you cultivate the impeccable body in the workplace.
Have you watched this movie?
Well, congratulations, you are already one rank higher than others.
