Chapter 348: Self-management of the core team
Under Ye Wan's leadership, the team has overcome its initial difficulties and is gradually maturing. Over time, Ye Wan has come to realize that the team's stability and development depend not solely on her own decisions and efforts; the growth and autonomy of the core team are equally crucial. After all, a successful team must possess the ability to manage itself and operate independently and efficiently without relying on a leader.
Ye Wan knew that letting her core team members take on more responsibility wasn't easy. She once worried about whether they could handle such a heavy responsibility and whether they could make sound judgments without her constant oversight. However, as the team continued to grow, Ye Wan gradually realized that her core team had become more than just executors; they had developed greater judgment, a greater sense of responsibility, and leadership. It was time to empower them with greater decision-making power, foster their autonomy, and allow the team to truly develop towards independence and maturity.
One day, Ye Wan convened a closed-door meeting with the core members. The atmosphere was tense. Although everyone was accustomed to Ye Wan's leadership style, today's meeting seemed particularly important. Ye Wan stood at the conference table, her eyes sweeping over each core member, encouragement and expectation in her eyes.
"Today, we're going to discuss a new direction," she said straight to the point. "I hope to delegate more management authority to you, allowing you to independently discuss and make decisions on daily matters. I will no longer be involved in every detail, but I hope that through these decisions, you will further enhance your sense of responsibility and leadership. Each of you will no longer be an executor under me, but a leader of your team."
As soon as the words fell, a brief silence fell in the conference room. Everyone's eyes held a hint of uneasiness and excitement. After all, delegating power is both a challenge and an opportunity for everyone. As Ye Wan had said, from now on, they will no longer be just people who carry out tasks, but leaders who can make decisions at critical moments.
Xie Linchuan was the first to break the silence, his eyes firm. "Ye Wan, I understand what you mean. We will do our best to fulfill our responsibilities, but I believe this is not only a challenge to our individual abilities, but also a necessary step for the development of the team. We will work together to live up to your expectations."
Ye Wan smiled slightly, her eyes gentle. "I believe each of you has this ability. Your growth has already exceeded my expectations. Now, it's time for you to truly step up and lead this team into a brighter future."
With Ye Wan's decision to delegate authority, the core team members' self-management abilities have rapidly improved. In the past, Ye Wan made many decisions personally, even on routine matters, ensuring every step was flawless. Now, however, Ye Wan has gradually delegated these responsibilities to core members, giving them greater freedom and allowing them to independently think and make decisions on key issues.
These changes were first reflected in the team's daily operations. Meetings and task assignments, previously arranged by Ye Wan herself, are now handled by the core team. Each member leverages their expertise, making decisions within their area of responsibility and leading the others. This model has led to more efficient team operations. No longer reliant on Ye Wan's instructions, members are able to independently schedule work, adjust priorities, and coordinate with one another to ensure the smooth progress of each task.
One example is the division of labor between An Zelin and Li Jiankai. Their responsibilities for resource management and security were originally areas Ye Wan personally oversaw, but as the core team's capabilities improved, Ye Wan decided to give them independent management of these areas. An Zelin conducted in-depth analysis and research on resource allocation, proposing a more efficient resource utilization plan. With Li Jiankai's assistance, he optimized security measures and strengthened the team's overall safety.
Their plan not only received recognition from Ye Wan, but also received high praise from other team members. Everyone commented that after implementing An Zelin and Li Jiankai's plan, resource waste was significantly reduced, and security measures became more flexible and efficient. This achievement was clearly inseparable from Ye Wan's training and trust, which further convinced her that the core team had acquired higher levels of management and decision-making capabilities.
Similarly, core member Xu Xin demonstrated exceptional management skills in the team's logistics. In the past, Ye Wan was typically responsible for the team's logistics, but now, Xu Xin adjusts the supply chain based on the team's needs and maintains close communication with various departments to ensure the team's adequate supplies and timely resupply. She has also proposed innovative approaches to improve the team's overall efficiency, and these new initiatives have been praised by everyone.
At a team summary meeting, Ye Wan specifically praised the outstanding performance of Xu Xin and other core members: "Today's team is able to independently handle a variety of complex tasks and challenges. Your growth makes me extremely pleased and makes me more confident in handing over more power to you. In the future, we will shoulder the responsibility of this team together, and I believe you will do even better."
At this moment, the core members' eyes gleamed with determination. They were no longer just newcomers to this large family, but now the backbone of the team, capable of shouldering independent responsibilities. Everyone realized that the team's future was not just Ye Wan's responsibility, but everyone's. Ye Wan's approach also made them feel truly part of the team and a trusted leader.
Ye Wan watched them, feeling a surge of joy and satisfaction. She knew she wasn't just a decision-maker, but also a trainer, a guide who could help the team grow. As the core team's self-management skills gradually improved, her burden began to ease. She no longer had to worry about every little thing, and could instead devote more time and energy to the team's long-term planning and future development.
As the core team matured, Ye Wan's leadership style evolved. She was no longer the "worrier" always busy with daily matters, but became a leader more focused on the big picture and future strategy. Her sense of responsibility remained heavy, but she knew the team had developed sufficient self-management skills to meet any challenge.
