Recently, the author came across a story that highlights a common issue in some state-owned enterprises. A manager, who was widely respected by workers for being honest, clean, and frugal, was considered a "good cadre." He was known for his careful attention to detail and always ensured every penny was well spent. However, despite his integrity, this manager made two major mistakes in project planning due to his refusal to listen to others' opinions. As a result, two key projects were launched blindly, leading to over one million yuan in direct economic losses. Workers expressed their disappointment, saying it was like "losing the watermelon while trying to save the sesame."
In many companies today, there are still managers like this. They may not be corrupt, nor do they engage in wastefulness. They are meticulous and focused on cost-saving. But when it comes to making important decisions, they tend to act unilaterally, without seeking input from others. Their overconfidence in their own judgment often leads to poor decisions. Some projects end up as "mustache projects"—half-finished and useless—while others become "halfway projects" or even turn into complete disasters. This kind of waste undermines the very efforts employees make to conserve every drop of electricity and every bit of resources.
To build a truly resource-efficient enterprise, scientific decision-making is the most effective way to save. The key to avoiding costly mistakes lies in promoting democratic and scientifically-based decision-making processes. In addition to strengthening argumentation, auditing, and supervision, it's even more crucial for managers of state-owned assets to implement a clear accountability system. Those who make decisions should also be held responsible for any mistakes. Establishing an effective mechanism for democratic and scientific decision-making can prevent errors before they happen. It’s time to eliminate the blind "power of the three beats"—those who "shoot heads, shoot chests, and shoot butts"—and control the chaos at the source. By doing so, macro-level decisions can become more reasonable, scientific, and practical, ultimately eliminating the biggest "funnel" of wasteful decision-making.
