Chapter 213 Don’t Be Self-Right
As New Year's Eve approaches, the city air is filled with the festive atmosphere. The streets and alleys are decorated with lights and people are busy preparing for various festival matters.
On the stage of the business world, many companies are busy preparing for their annual meetings as if they are attending a grand carnival. The Jiang Group is naturally also caught up in this trend and is no less popular.
Jiang Xue, a person who has recently become somewhat famous in the Jiang Group, unsurprisingly became the main person in charge of this annual meeting.
The business district project and new drug project that Jiang Xue is in charge of are like two bright stars, shining with eye-catching light in the business map of Jiang Group.
In particular, the new drug projects have continuously injected rich profits into the company, making the numbers on the company's financial statements soar.
Jiang Xue thought that this was all her own achievement, and her heart was already filled with pride and complacency, as if she was a hero who turned the tide and saved the world.
Whenever she met a subordinate, she would raise her chin slightly, with a hint of contempt in her eyes, as if to say, "You mediocre people are far from me."
During the preparations for the annual meeting, Jiang Xue's arrogance and pride were fully revealed.
She stood in the middle of the conference room, her arms folded across her chest, her eyes scanning the busy staff around her.
"Listen carefully, everyone. This annual meeting must be held in an extremely luxurious manner. We must let everyone see the strong strength and extraordinary demeanor of our Jiang Group."
Her voice was clear but carried unquestionable majesty. Every word was like an order, hitting everyone's heart heavily.
When a staff member cautiously raised some concerns about the budget and feasibility, Jiang Xue immediately frowned, with a flash of anger in her eyes: "What do you know! In my opinion, as long as the effect can be achieved, money is not a problem at all.
If you can't even handle this little thing, what qualifications do you have to stay in the Jiang Group?"
The corners of her mouth rose slightly with a hint of sarcasm, and that smile was like an ice-cold sword, piercing people's hearts.
Jiang Xue thought to herself, "I have made such great contributions to the company. This annual meeting is a great opportunity for me to show myself to everyone.
I want to make those who have doubted me shut up and let them know that I, Jiang Xue, am the backbone of the Jiang Group.
Whether it is the senior directors or the ordinary employees, they should all bow down to me.”
Jiang Xue was extremely picky when choosing the venue for the annual meeting.
She brought a group of assistants to the major luxury hotels and conference centers in the city, commenting on every venue. "The decoration of this venue is too old-fashioned and does not fit the fashionable image of our Jiang Group."
"The space of that venue is too small. It can't accommodate all our employees and guests." As she spoke, she shook her head impatiently and slapped the folders in her hands, venting her dissatisfaction with these venues.
As for the program arrangement of the annual meeting, Jiang Xue also has her own domineering views.
She ignored the interests and specialties of her employees and forced them to arrange a series of programs that she believed could demonstrate the Jiang Group's elegant taste, such as classical concerts and ballet performances.
When an employee tried to suggest adding some more interactive programs to liven up the atmosphere, Jiang Xue snorted disdainfully: "How can you compare with me with your vulgar tastes? The annual meeting is an elegant social event, not a street circus."
During the negotiations with suppliers, Jiang Xue's arrogance reached its peak.
She sat at the negotiation table, crossed her legs, and looked at the supplier opposite with indifference: "Your offer is too high. With the status and influence of Jiang Group, you should offer us a more favorable price. If you can't meet my requirements, I believe there will be many other suppliers who will rush to cooperate with us."
Her tone was firm and arrogant, leaving no room for negotiation, leaving the suppliers looking at each other in bewilderment, their hearts filled with helplessness and resentment.
As the preparations for the annual meeting progressed, Jiang Xue became more and more irritable and angry.
She often loses her temper over trivial matters, making the staff around her tremble with fear and walk on thin ice.
"You can't even do such a small thing. Don't you want to do this job anymore?" Her roar scared some young employees so much that they didn't even dare to look up at her.
However, Jiang Xue did not realize that her behavior had caused disgust and dissatisfaction among many people.
She was immersed in her own glory and fantasy, thinking that everything she did was for the benefit of the Jiang Group and was justified.
At a high-level group meeting, Jiang Xue proudly reported on the progress of preparations for the annual meeting: "Dear directors, I have carefully planned everything for this annual meeting.
From the selection of the venue to the program arrangement, from the catering supply to the invitation of guests, every link is perfect.
I believe that this annual meeting will become the most glorious event in the history of Jiang's Group and will also bring our reputation in the industry to a higher level." Her eyes were shining with confidence and pride, and she was looking forward to the praise and recognition of the directors.
However, the directors' response was not what she had hoped.
A senior director frowned and said, “Jiang Xue, the annual meeting is not just a luxurious performance, but also an important event to gather employee morale and showcase company culture.
Some of your actions during the preparation process seemed to focus too much on superficial forms and ignore the feelings of employees and the connotation of the company. "
When Jiang Xue heard this, she suddenly felt a surge of anger in her heart, but she still resisted the urge to vent: "Director, everything I do is to enhance the image and reputation of the company.
In today's highly competitive business environment, we must demonstrate our strength and charm through such large-scale events."
Another director also added: “Also, you seem to lack some respect and cooperation in your communications with employees and suppliers.
Jiang's Group has always emphasized teamwork and win-win development. Your behavior may affect the harmony within the company and external cooperation. "
Jiang Xue's face became more and more ugly. She felt that her efforts and achievements were ruthlessly ignored and belittled by the directors.
She stood up and said in a trembling voice: "I have put so much effort into this annual meeting. Can't you see it? Everything I do is for the good of the company. How can you blame me like this?"
The directors looked at Jiang Xue's excitement but were not affected by her emotions.
An older director was also furious: "Jiang Xue, as a manager, you must not only have outstanding business capabilities, good moral character and leadership style, but also must not be self-righteous. Your arrogance will become a stumbling block on your road to progress and will also bring potential risks to the company."
When Jiang Xue heard this, she felt as if she had been hit hard in the heart.
She thought her glorious moment was coming, but she didn't expect to be criticized and questioned by the directors. She stood there blankly, at a loss for a moment.
After returning to her office, Jiang Xue angrily threw the documents in her hand on the table: "These old guys don't understand my ideas at all. I have made so much money for the company, but they still point fingers at me." She paced back and forth in the office, her heart full of grievances and unwillingness.
She swore secretly in her heart: "No matter what, I will make this annual meeting a complete success. When the time comes, I will let you know that I, Jiang Xue, am right. I will use facts to prove that I am not self-righteous."
