Recently Zhaozhao promotion director, a lot of friends have to take the opportunity to eat and drink. I know more about Zhaozhao's work, and I am curious about how Zhaozhao stands out from many old employees with more than one year's experience in the company with excellent welfare benefits. A face smiling meaning of Zhao Zhao to us, we hee hee ha ha to prick up the ears.

Zhao Zhao joined his current company more than a year ago. The former employer because of poor management, efficiency is not good, the old employees are very harsh, and then the company is now poaching a lot of employees, Zhaozhao is one of them. The company is very powerful, and its treatment is very good because ZHAOzhao is the first batch of poached, promised Zhao Zhao than later some employees better welfare, Zhao Zhao has also been dedicated.

In the meantime, something happened.

Zhao Zhao COMPANY HAS foreign websites in various languages, ZHAO ZHAO is responsible for one of the larger English sites. That year, just before Christmas, Zhaozhao made some changes to the site for the biggest holiday in the West. When THE TECHNICAL COLLEAGUES MODIFIED THE CODE ACCORDING TO ZHAOZHAO'S REQUIREMENTS, THEY wrote a wrong line, so THE SEARCH engine missed a large part of the page, and the following time the website traffic was crazy.

After what happened, Zhazhao actively to find the reason, because of the technology of concealment, the problem delayed some solutions. In the face of traffic decline, the leadership of the responsibility, responsible for the entire site Zhazhao will take the responsibility down. From the beginning to the end, the senior technical staff did not come forward to explain to her.

The big boss does not know what happened, in front of her leadership severely criticized Zhaozhao.

And Zhaozhao's leadership is a technical background, knows that the problem is probably in the old technology. But until technology came forward and admitted it on the spot, she said nothing. I just went to them in private and once I got to know them, I knew why. The leader did not say much but kept it in mind.

Zhaozhao's company has two big bosses, the company is jointly funded by two bosses. One of the bosses was infrequent and conservative. The other boss was with his employees almost every day. He was attentive, ambitious, and trusted.

The company grew bigger and bigger, but the last two bosses had a disagreement because of the listing, the conservative boss did not agree to the listing, and the boss who had been in the company did several years of hard preparation for the listing. Unable to coordinate, leading to the final separation.

Company reorganization, zhazhao leadership with their whole team was recruited to the heart of the listed boss. One half of the horse consolidation expansion, zhazhao leadership promotion became vice president, zhazhao was recommended by her leadership to go out independently to recruit people with a department. When she recommended it to her boss, her boss told her about it. The boss was very happy to approve. So Zhaozhao became the director of the new English department, the official position is not big, and real power and treatment are very high.

The old tech worker, at that time, had two options at his company, one was to submit to restructuring, and the other was to pay extra for years of service. Technology is meant to be subject to restructuring, after all the companies are well paid. When the boss heard about it, he gave him an extra three months 'pay.

Zhaozhao's boss talked to her, said she was very optimistic about her, and encourage her to work hard. Zhao Zhao was greatly flattered. Then the boss went out of his way to praise her at the first group meeting of the restructured company. She took to heart every word the boss said.

The boss said: "I am not afraid of you do wrong, do wrong to correct, you have growth, the company has progressed. I'm afraid that you do something wrong and just try to cover it up instead of making up for it in the first place. So for us, such a time is the money of the enterprise, how much additional loss!"

Zhao Zhao the boss's original words without missing to repeat to us, we were quiet for a while. Maybe we all saw something in someone else's story. Maybe you were another old tech, maybe you'll be the next showman.

So you see, people who admit mistakes and take responsibility are not disliked by others. On the contrary, it is those who are always the first to get out of the way when there is a problem, and those who are seen as fools are more likely to be trusted by others.

The Internet is so developed today, that some public figures make a little mistake, sometimes not even a mistake, just a little moral defect, it is easy to be made public. However, many people make the wrong choices.

See a lot of things on the Internet, it is the first time to make excuses to shirk the fault, at the beginning of trying to cover up. And watching the crowd always don't think the matter is big, so things become more and more intense, true and false complex. Big V people carelessly will be able to solve the original very quickly, splashing too many personal affairs gradually deteriorating, eventually evolving into a huge public outcry. Wait for things out of control, the lie is not round, just began to panic, a snot a tear out to apologize. How painful understanding, but has been repeated to be understood.

Owning up to a mistake is an attitude that shows that your position was inadvertence or ill-conceived and that you are determined to actively seek solutions. For people, relatives, and friends around you like is not dead do not admit fault, do not repent of the conduct of the lossy; Businesses don't need an unreliable employee who simply passes the buck and doesn't actively compensate for mistakes and losses.

To err is human. It is better to repent than to repent. Having the courage to admit when you are wrong is very good quality. This quality can be recognized by those around you, and you can rub it off on them. When we do something wrong, taking responsibility for it is a good way to deal with it and minimize the negative impact on our image in the first place. And when you take active steps to remedy the problem and finally solve it, you will gain a lot more than just passing the buck, that little bit of self-deception.

Once worked with zhazhao technology old staff, when leaving the leadership, is not zhazhao dozen report. The leader told him that she knew it was his responsibility from the beginning and had been waiting for him to take the initiative, but he had failed to take the opportunity all along.

Zhao Zhao, the new company has a team, technology, and resources. Once recovered, can ten flat eight stable listing, the future is promising.

Now, do you know what our options are if we do something wrong?
