谁在反对信息化?

星期六去参加了AMT的一个线下活动,感觉受益匪浅。研讨会主要是对兴和公司的信息化案例的讨论,题目是:谁在反对信息化。嘉宾光明乳业CIO赵春雨的点评尤为精彩。没有太多的时间整理自己的感想,这里只是简单的记录一下几个关键点.记录可能会有一些不准确的地方,不做其他任何用途。
企业有没有准备好信息化。从案例上来看,管理上不成熟,属于明显的粗放式管理,只有revenue和销售量两个指标,小金库等都是不可避免的。光明乳业从97年开始进行信息化,购买电脑或单独独立运动。从98年99年开始做信息化的准备工作,包括安排领导到和雀巢惠氏等合资企业的大量的参观培训,同时开始六成规范化。从2000年,开始全面实施ERP. 在信息化的过程中,非常重要的实现作变革宣传,同时又一个观点必须明确就是:不是任何企业都能够做信息化。
针对部分会员提出的通过期权改善区域经理或销售人员的激励机制的问题,赵总会认为期权实际上是人在资本市场上的价值,主要是中高层管理人员,是企业战略稳定的重要步骤,但是并不能解决基层人员的激励问题。
在企业信息化的过程中,一定要搞清楚信息化的消费者,供应者,操作者.最高层通常是信息化的消费者,他们更关心决策和战略控制;最基层操作人员通常是信息化的供应者,他们只需要一个输入界面,而中层管理人员最关注流程,需要大量的报表.
企业在信息化的过程中一定要引进大量的新鲜血液,一个企业如果没有人员流动,就无法发展;但是如果有太大的人员流动,就会是很大的风险.光明乳业信息化的时机很好,在信息化的过程中每年都是高速增长,所以因为效率提高带来的人员减少就可以寻找其他的岗位.在信息化的过程中,2000年的时候,光明乳业70%的外企人员;而到了现在,这个数字达到了90%.我们要通过不断的变革管理,引进人才.ERP不是革命,是变革。两者的不同在于,革命是从下往上的,变革是从上往下的。信息化如果从下而上,就会造成非常多的信息孤岛,会产生很多的小程序,带来管理方面的一致性问题。必须从那些对业务支持最大的程序开始,才能获得大家的支持。
总裁的个人风格决定了企业战略和管理战略。在管理上的变革从来都是不换脑子就换人。要讲究纪律性。所谓一把手工程就是要符合管理者的总体需求,符合总裁的理想。
信息化实现运作透明化,建立数字神经系统来实现反馈和控制系统。

除了精彩的嘉宾点评以外,还有很多其他人很好的见解,参加这样的活动真的不错。

暴躁

最近几天变得特别暴躁,也不知道为什么。老公嘲笑我说更年期到了,被我一阵猛打。他说他也很暴躁,大概是天气的原因。“大家都不要我们,剩下两个人在这个大城市里空空荡荡的游荡。”我对老公说。有好多时候,会有这样的感觉,突然觉得生命失去了意义,我们好像什么都不缺,但是我们又不知道拥有些什么。白天特别忙,忙得让人烦躁,临下班的时候,觉得头很痛。但是在谈论美好前景的时候,又真的很high,有时候甚至会晚上睡不着觉。一想到连国庆节都被预订掉以后,我就不由自主地想逃避,像一只鸵鸟一样,把自己埋在沙子里,而这是我以前经常嘲笑别人的地方。有一段时间,我以为自己已经可以做到游刃有余,不想还是会这样痛苦。

到了家里,洗好澡,瞄了一眼时间,居然不到10点钟,便很高兴的欢呼了一声。想了一回才明白,原来欢呼是为了:我终于有了自己的时间,没有人逼我了。

看了Claire妹妹的blog,依然是那样的精彩。这个妖精妹妹依然是那样的折磨别人,折磨自己,或许这就是修炼成精的必要步骤。我认识很多这样的妖精姐姐和妖精妹妹,她们对精致生活的追求让大多数人都自叹不如,张大了嘴巴佩服。正如多而胶囊的广告:减肥,是一种生活态度。有一些人天生不满足,希望看得更多,每天都不一样,有不同的追求,我相信她属于这一类型。但我也会永远记得2004年9月17日那天晚上,她在我新装修的家里把自己嫁给了官人。人都是两面的,所以才会痛苦。

眼光比生活高一些

今天出去和好友逛街聊天,好久没这么高兴了。刚开始逛街的时候,心里还很不爽。看上的衣服都太贵,大概是通货膨胀的缘故;看上的衣服也太小,没有小蛮腰。后来我说不如买条丝巾当晚礼服,还被嘲笑了一通,最后决定不逛街了,去喝茶。真得很奇怪,为什么女人总是不厌其烦的买那么贵的衣服,动不动就一件400块,真不知道是我们太穷,还是永远眼光比钱包高一点,比腰身细一点。
等到了茶馆,聊着聊着就开心了。聊周围的人,聊他们的生活,他们的幸福。最后发现一个一致的论调:自己开心,学会享受生活最重要。工作是永远做不完的,眼光比生活高一些的代价要么使自己痛苦,或使别人痛苦。朋友可怜巴巴的哭诉,有一同事为了当senior,天天想出各种花招,提给老板,还得她也受牵连,天天可怜巴巴的画sequence diagram.可怜的人,不过遇上这种同事,也真得挺受罪。
哭诉了一大堆后,我们决定为幸福生活干杯。因为平凡如我俩者,绝无可能一夜暴富,或有富翁垂故,也无远房亲戚可以继承遗产,看透了需要一生劳碌。既然如此,何不享受生活,把打算积攒起来享受的幸福逐一分解,该度假的度假,该休息的休息;世界决不会因为你的休息而损失分毫。看透了这些,工作也是快乐的。

Men are like Rubber Bands?

I am very surprised to know men have an intimacy cycle, just like Rubber Bands. Closer, then pull away; closer, then pull away. They have needs for both intimacy and autonomy. That's why they are always causing women feel that being disgarded. It's not because she has done something wrong, just because of the cycle. So men also have a cycle. :-)

I read this rule from "Men from Mars; Women from Venus". But I think this rule is also true for women. I remember one person said, all people have three needs: family, community and job. Lose of any needs will cause uncomfortable. I totally agree with this. I am not those kind of people who can be at home all days, although I always dream that way.

Every year, my company will spend a lot of time for employees to write their commitments, action item and accountability. It's a good expereince. You need think about the career, and write it down. Shall we also have a commitment to our personal life? to another 2 important parts of our life? However, it is such a complex question, and I don't know. Leave it to next topic.

Fahrenheit 9/11

For several days and weeks, I didn't write the blog. I am not a good blogger because I always suspect why I spent so much time on the blogs. I still have the question in my heart. But undoutbly, reading good friends' blog has become my habit. I found reading SINA news is not so interesting as reading all kinds of blogs. There are thoughts in blogs.

Last night, I watched the famous Fahrenheit 9/11. It opens a new window to me to know that such sensitive politics topics can be interpreted in this way. Is this what is called freedom? Poor George W Bush has such a close financial relationship with famous terrorist, and even his own companies were invested by the rich guys. The government is continously giving confusing conception and signals to let their people live in an unsafe condition. They have a good excuse to initiate a war get the oil from the Iraq region. While at the same time, the benefit from the war is scrabbed by the few big companies without competition. There is a sentense in the movie: why whenever there is a war, the poorest people who have the worst education always stand up to protect us? It's a robbery. The rich people make the rules to get more resources from the poor, while when there is a war, the money enourages the poor people to earn the money for college by risking their life.

When I finish the movie, I asked my husband a question: what's the impact of this movie to American's president selection. He answered me: there are so many different voices in America, it is just one of these voices. However, from today's news on SINA, I do see some point and explanations to the question mentioned in this movie, for example: who open the green light to Bin Laden's family.

From a project management's perspective, It's a typical american project which the skill is built when an american is still young(Jian shuo told me a lot of primary/high school student is requireing the mag lev circuit diagram to build their own mag lev as the homework of a semister, how about our education?). Suspect, assumpt, prove and speak out the ideas. Why are there so many different projects in US which covers different aspects of the life, while at the same time, all of them have the common characters of seeking for facts?

I will begin to learn foreign books. Few books in Scholoar are worthy reading because they are very commercial or only simple translation. We need high quality book store and books to guide us through the life instead of learning skill and technology everyday.
