Core Concepts - The article discusses the military-inspired management strategies implemented by companies like Huawei, China National Chemical Corporation (Sinochem), and Vanke, emphasizing the importance of power balance, results-oriented assessments, and agile organizational structures [1][4][9]. Group 1: Power Balance and Management Structures - Huawei's "three powers separation" system (nominating, reviewing, and impeaching rights) is designed to prevent personal biases from harming the company, similar to military management mechanisms [1]. - Vanke's "weak relationship culture" utilizes digital approval processes to eliminate personal interference, ensuring accountability through automated monitoring [2][3]. Group 2: Results-Oriented Assessment - Sinochem's balanced scorecard approach breaks down strategic goals into four dimensions, including financial growth and customer satisfaction, akin to a military operations map [4][5]. - The implementation of military-style KPIs has led to significant operational improvements, such as a 15% profit growth target and a customer complaint rate of less than 0.3% [5][6]. Group 3: Focused Strategies - Huawei's "needle-point strategy" concentrates resources on key areas like 5G and chip development, with 70% of R&D budget allocated to these sectors, resulting in a 16% share of global 5G patents [6][8]. - Sinochem's "full industry chain" model controls every aspect of the food supply chain, achieving over 90% self-control in critical processes [7][8]. Group 4: Agile Organizational Structures - Huawei has established multiple "legion" teams that operate like special forces, allowing for rapid decision-making and project execution, significantly reducing project initiation times [9][10]. - The "heavy-duty brigade + marine corps" model at China Resources enables quick integration of acquired companies, reducing the average integration period from nine months to about three [10]. Group 5: Performance and Accountability - Huawei's "bottom-line elimination" policy, inspired by Jack Welch's "721 vitality rule," ensures that underperforming employees are removed to maintain organizational vigor [11][12]. - The company employs a rigorous self-criticism mechanism within its executive management team to ensure high standards and accountability [21][23]. Group 6: Strategic Resilience - Huawei's "backup plan" during the global supply chain crisis exemplifies a robust risk management system, with significant investments in technology and supply chain redundancy [14][15]. - The company has achieved a fourfold increase in its share of the global semiconductor market, demonstrating the effectiveness of its strategic resilience [16]. Group 7: Talent Development and Promotion - The "merit-based promotion" system at Huawei ties executive advancement to battlefield performance, with nearly half of its executives coming from challenging markets [17][18]. - China Resources employs a "merit point system" for promotions, fostering a closed-loop ecosystem of acquisition, integration, and advancement [18]. Group 8: Cultural and Philosophical Integration - Huawei's "striver agreement" aligns individual interests with corporate goals, fostering a collective mindset among employees [19][20]. - The military-inspired management practices of these companies reflect a blend of Eastern wisdom and military philosophy, contributing to a new commercial civilization [34][35].
