A company recruited a marketing manager. After competition, Zhang, Wang, and Li entered the final round of assessment presided over by the general manager of the company.

Unexpectedly, the boss drove the three young people to an orchard, pointed to three tall apple trees full of fruit, and said to the puzzled three: "See, each of you has one tree. The tree, whoever picks the most fruit will be the final candidate for the company's marketing department manager." After the boss finished speaking, the three of them went straight to the fruit tree and started the final round of competition. Zhang Jun is tall and has long arms, standing under the tree, busy up and down, left and right, and picked a lot of fruit in a moment. Although Wang Jun is not as tall as Zhang Jun, he is agile and strong, climbs trees like a monkey, bows left and right, and gains a lot in the blink of an eye. Only Li Jun is short and fat. Although he is sweaty, his achievements are obviously behind Zhang and Wang. "It would be nice if there was a ladder. By the way, the guard room may have one." Li Jun was anxious and ran to the guard room quickly. He smiled and sincerely explained the situation to the doorman. Just now, when the boss led the three people in, only Li Jun and the doorman greeted him. The master obviously had a good impression of him. He moved from the back of the house without saying a word After getting a foldable aluminum alloy ladder, Li Jun thanked the master and ran back to the orchard excitedly with the ladder. With the ladder, Li Jun becomes more and more comfortable, picking up fruits as he pleases. At this time, Zhang and Wang encountered a problem. Although Zhang Jun was born tall, he could not reach the fruit in the high places; although Wang Jun was agile, he did not dare to climb on the twigs to pick them. At this time, they also thought of borrowing a ladder. After a long circle, how can I find the shadow of the ladder? When they came back out of breath, the boss solemnly announced: "The game is over, and Li Jun has been hired as the manager of the marketing department. Li Jun is no better than Zhang Jun, and his dexterity is no better than Wang Jun, but in the face of difficulties, he can quickly find a solution to the problem. This is the most valuable quality of a marketing manager." At this moment, Zhang and Wang bowed their heads in shame and lost Convinced orally.

From this, I think of former US President George W. Bush. George W. Bush had poor grades in middle school, was playful and liked to play pranks. However, under the influence of his father, he has an ideal of politics. When Bush Sr knew about his ambition, he sent him a sentence: "Remember the name of everyone you have had contact with." Later, Bush Jr. relied on his father's relationship to enter Yale University to major in history, and his grades were still average. The course only gets a C. But he has always kept his father's words in mind. In four years of college, he memorized the names of more than 1,000 classmates. After graduation, the work is still the same, and I have met and memorized more people's names. Later, when Bush was running for president at the age of 53, his classmates and colleagues gave him strong support. In the fiercely competitive American society, Bush Jr. went straight to the sky by virtue of the ladder of emotion.

In the process of each of us growing up, I believe that many of us have the same feeling that many of our classmates, colleagues and friends who seem to be ordinary have inadvertently become admirable after a few years, and have made remarkable achievements. Unexpected achievement. In fact, they have their own advantages, but this "excellence" to a large extent means that they have a strong "ladder awareness", they are good at borrowing ladders, they are good at finding and finding ladders, and they have the ability to take the initiative to build ladders. Good EQ to pick up the ladder. This "ladder awareness" is extended to refer to good interpersonal awareness, keen observation and thinking awareness, advanced innovation awareness, awareness of capturing fleeting opportunities, and so on.

The rooftop is 108,000 zhang, and auspicious clouds send me to the blue sky. Today's society is a society of fierce competition, a society of refined social division of labor, a society of information integration and sharing, and a society that is closely interdependent. When each of us is confident and striving to move forward in our career or career, we should always look up at the outside world and the surrounding scenery, firmly establish the "ladder awareness", and learn to use the ladder to do our best. At the same time, it is necessary to make full use of resources other than one's own, which often results in a multiplier effect.
