Chapter 713 - 567: Adjustment

Shi Wangyue opened the office door, wondering why he hadn’t received a reply to the messages he sent half an hour ago.

Looking over, his workstation was empty.

"Where’s Assistant Jin?"

He asked the subordinates nearby.

"Assistant Jin went to another department," replied the employee sitting near Assistant Jin’s desk.

"When he returns, let him come in for a moment," Shi Wangyue instructed and then went back to his office. Soon after, Assistant Jin knocked on Shi Wangyue’s office door.

"Boss, you wanted to see me?"

"Sit."

Shi Wangyue gestured to the guest area of the office for Assistant Jin, and then he walked from his desk to sit beside Assistant Jin.

"Recently, the workload has increased quite a bit. Are you having trouble keeping up?"

"It’s okay," Assistant Jin answered after a brief thought, "I can manage."

"That means you’re somewhat overburdened," Shi Wangyue said, "The market conditions have been fluctuating a lot lately, and our work is indeed intense."

Especially in the capital field, the more complex the external environment, the more issues need to be handled. The company often faces many "firefighting" scenarios up and down.

It’s not just him and Ze Wu feeling the heavy workload; assistants dealing with issues on the ground also find it tough.

Shi Wangyue noticed all this.

"It’s something we need to adapt to."

Assistant Jin is an outstanding employee who always acts with the company’s best interest in mind.

"Don’t I know you?" Shi Wangyue chuckled softly, "I observed that when unexpected events arise, you struggle to keep up, which is because your schedule is too packed. Do you think you might want to add more flexibility to your schedule?"

"More flexibility?" Assistant Jin reflected, "I’ve already precisely calculated my time allocation for daily tasks, leaving no extra time."

"I know you’re dedicated and diligent, and you can manage all developments within the organization," Shi Wangyue said, "But I reminded you long ago not to become a micromanager. Do you remember?"

Assistant Jin appeared puzzled.

Seeing Assistant Jin’s expression, Shi Wangyue knew he had no recollection, so he explained in detail.

"Perhaps I was too subtle at the time. Let me seriously tell you now that given your current work situation, you need to rearrange your schedule and management plans. If you continue with your current work model, it will become a work bottleneck for you in the future."

It will also undermine team morale and their autonomy.

Smart people only need a hint in certain places.

"Based on our company’s development in recent years, your work approach was perfectly fine and even excellent, but now, with our investment portfolio comprising many companies and numerous ongoing investments, both for me and for you, the workload is very heavy. This forces us to make comprehensive changes and pursue a more organized work and life style."

Assistant Jin sat upright, "Boss, I will make the adjustments as soon as possible."

Shi Wangyue nodded gently, "I trust you will adjust well."

Assistant Jin pondered and then asked, "Boss, is this also why you started adjusting your schedule early this year and allocated many open time slots for yourself?"

Shi Wangyue nodded, smiling, "Yes, Youyou suggested I make such adjustments, saying my previous schedule was too tight for long-term development."

Assistant Jin couldn’t hold back his expression and laughed, "No wonder."

The atmosphere between them became relaxed.

Shi Wangyue continued to smile, "Youyou also showed me cases of many excellent and influential people, all of whom, without exception, have similar open time slots in their daily schedules."

Assistant Jin, accustomed to being rigorous in front of Shi Wangyue, although his expression relaxed, dared not go overboard.

He quickly grasped the key points advantageous to himself.

"Do you have any good suggestions for me, boss?"

Yet inside, he quietly chuckled, "Probably, ’interesting’ is what the boss cares about more, the reason for quickly adjusting his schedule."

With a high-ranking mentor like President Shi, indeed able to provide effective suggestions for Assistant Jin, "Before adjusting your schedule, you can list all your tasks, then compare each task by considering these questions—’I won’t do this task,’ ’I will say no,’ or ’I’ll delegate this task to whom,’ then carefully think about what you should do."

"I’ve noted it, thank you, President Shi," Assistant Jin said after a silent moment.

Shi Wangyue had intended today to guide his capable subordinate, full of patience, confirming that Assistant Jin remembered his words, and then smilingly encouraged, "Franklin once said, ’Man’s last freedom is the only thing that cannot be taken away from a person, that is the ability to choose one’s attitude and path in any given environment.’ It’s never too late to start developing a new habit."

Assistant Jin’s expression truly relaxed, "Thank you, President Shi, for your guidance. I have indeed felt tired lately."

"You’ve worked hard recently," Shi Wangyue promptly acknowledged Assistant Jin’s efforts.

Then he stated another important reason for calling him to the office today, "After a serious discussion with Ze Wu and some senior partners of the company, we unanimously believe that if our company relies solely on internal analysts and assistants for research and due diligence, it may lead the whole team to struggle with rapid decision-making or becoming familiar with new markets or geographical environments."

Assistant Jin instantly understood and followed up on Shi Wangyue’s words, "So we..."

"Therefore, all our team members should recognize the shortcomings of this approach. We should understand that establishing our own competitive advantage is not easy. In this regard, we should adopt different approaches compared to other competitors," Shi Wangyue said. 1314
