In the process , The role is slowly changing , technology / Business / Overall team management .

For the last time , It's thorough 0 To 1, Because there is no technology accumulation / The team is a new team , Some are near 10 Business accumulation in .

Starting from 2020, Hardship and helplessness .

When the overall technical level is not high , Management is often ineffective , Because there is no clear landing time . Management can only serve as a direction , Rather than a more coercive means . So in 0 At the start , The core of business and Technology . Based on us 10 Several years of industry experience , Soon designed a suitable scheme ： Organizational structure / jurisdiction , grid / bill , technological process , report form . Based on the need to support super large enterprises , We have cohesive business components , Provide certification services / Business meta model services / Business data services / Business coding service / Workflow components / Message center platform services /UI(pc front end /mobile front end ) etc. .

In the process , We can only strengthen the technical direction ： We also know that many people don't like learning , I think my knowledge is basically enough . After three months of intensive training , It has increased the mobility of our members , But the effect of output is very obvious , Trained , Start from the front , Our custom components have gone through 3 Transformation of versions , It is basically suitable for our existing full customization UI The goal of . The goal of management at this stage is auxiliary , Let us strengthen our confidence . So we release certain achievements step by step , Let them feel the output directly , And provide some incentives when appropriate . At this stage, only rewards but no punishment .....

2021, The stage of forming and landing .

As we enter 2021 After year , We have the pressure to deliver , Small and medium-sized quota contracts are updated version by version , So that customers can perform business at the same time , Provide the development team with advanced change requirements . The pressure of technology is great, but the overall technical improvement of the team is the guarantee , Basic security has passed the integration of business and Technology .

We are in the direction of enterprise management , There is no mandatory death line . Enterprise management is a systematic development . There are differences between the early planning and the current situation when it is launched . Therefore, business adjustment and technological innovation will not bring obvious conflict , In the continuous promotion of the project, the change of Party A and the supplement of our technology are mutually adaptive . Only the overall operation of the team is under pressure , The management needs to have a clear self-awareness and long-term benefit balance , In order to have the growth and maturity of the enterprise basic management platform .

At this stage, management gradually enters the business / Technology platform stage , The courage of managers will be reflected in this stage , Because the core of this stage is the priority of the business segment / The intersection of business operation and maintenance , In the absence of the operation and maintenance platform , Manual operation and maintenance will turn to the technical team . Managers need to have a deep business foundation , At the same time, it can overview the overall situation , Fast customization and decision-making ability of technical solutions provided , Let the problems encountered be solved quickly , And synchronously guide the formation of operation and maintenance tools , Enable the implementation and operation and maintenance team to quickly intervene in operation and maintenance , Let the whole technology / test 、 The delivery team enters the benign support stage .

A lot of times , The promotion of technology must have the corresponding operation and maintenance guarantee ability . So this requires a balanced concept of business promotion and overall management .

The core of the enterprise management platform is the support of business change , That is, operation and maintenance capability , The integration of product expansion ability and high customization ability . The high customization ability is mainly reflected in UI, Different companies UI The style is different , Basically, it needs to be customized . This is also the key problem we need to solve this time .

When we enter the full delivery phase of the first version , technology / Business / The management of the three will enter a period of equivalence , Leaders in this period need comprehensive candidates , It's not good to focus on technology or business or management .

The pressure on the team will increase significantly ： Missing function / Transfer of operation and maintenance work / Implement team complaints / The pressure of team members is released after filling , How to solve the technical team / Business team / The implementation and delivery teams contradict each other based on their own considerations . The only space left for managers is mind , The balance of all teams and the pressure of their own comprehensive understanding of the product , Not ordinary people can bear .

The combination of all other team pressures plus their own pressure , Is the current pressure .

Two weeks after the product was launched in a provincial port group , I go back to my hometown for two weeks for some reasons , In the absence of two weeks , The atmosphere of the whole office in Changsha is wrong . Mutual complaint and conflict , Relatively low correspondence and output . Imbalance in the promotion of overall planning . These things that should not have happened have happened .

When I return to Changsha , The atmosphere of the whole team slowly improved , In particular, the voice of the technical team in the office area is quite loud , And slowly reactivate this office area . The interaction between teams slowly calmed down with my participation , Return to the external as a whole .

Team members represent the whole company , When preparing to expose team members to the project last year , Corresponding training programs have been specially set up . The technical team sent by Changsha has been well recognized in all projects .
