What should you learn from Zuckerberg in 2018?

Zuckerberg from the 19-year-old entrepreneurial CEO until today, and Facebook can grow together, because he is a continuous learning, continuous improvement of young people. As we approach 2018, when you write down the New Year's Plan, let's take a look at how Little Zab has made plans and completed the challenge.

Each year a new "challenge", out of the comfort zone

Zuckerberg sets itself an annual "challenge" every year. His 2009 challenge was to stick his necktie every day (uh, most people know what he usually looks like), learning Chinese in 2010, the challenge in 2011 was to eat only animals that he personally slaughtered (so he almost Vegan), and the challenge in 2012 was to insist on writing code every day because he wanted to get closer to employees and learn about Facebook from the details.

In Facebook, Zuckerberg hosts a small weekly Chinese seminar in order to learn Chinese. So Zuckerberg met from time to time, you will find that his Chinese have improved a lot.

Zuckerberg once talked about traveling to China with his girlfriend. When the two of them went to the Forbidden City to buy their tickets, the conductor found that his girlfriend was a Chinese face and asked her questions like "What tickets to buy" and "How many"? However, she looked dazed and Zuckerberg Speak Chinese. This surprised the conductor.

Zuckerberg's annual 2015 challenge is to read a new book every two weeks. So ah, × × × × more books.

This year, Koza's annual challenge is to go to all 50 states in the United States and visit the inhabitants of each state. No wonder some people think that the small bar is not to run for the presidency ah. . .

In fact, more is that we see from these annual challenges, Zuckerberg constantly out of the comfort zone, continuous learning.

From two young to gradually mature and stable

Zuckerberg also early just in two, from the earliest I'm CEO, Bitch

Later, deliberately late, wearing a pajamas to see Sequoia investors, and then listed a PPT, do not invest my top ten reasons to anger Sequoia (allegedly for his then good friend Sean Parker Revenge, but also moody thing)

But out of mix, sooner or later have to return later Facebook Whatsapp acquisition with a high price of more than 190 billion dollars, the price is so high, it is said that Sequoia raise prices is the main reason.

YouTube co-founder Chen Shijun interviewed Facebook. Zuckerberg interviewed him at that time was simply a childless kid, "I remember every time he asked questions, he did not listen to my answer, but playing his cell phone and I was thinking, 'God, I was not Should you leave? "Said Chen Shijun." Will this guy grow up? "

We later saw that Zuckerberg is indeed mature, such as the recent "Facebook News Prejudice", Zuckerberg responded promptly, and with smile at the headquarters of Silicon Valley to meet with the dedication of 17 American conservative opinion leaders When handled well. When Facebook's director, Mark Anderson, made a ridicule about India's improper remarks about "the colony," Kobayashi quickly narrowed the gap with Anderson, publicly stating that his point of view was "very disappointing and did not represent Facebook or my position at all And ideas. "

Good looking for teacher / tutor

Zuckerberg is very good at organizing mentors, learn from the predecessors who managerial wisdom.

His earliest mentor was Sean Parker, who is also Facebook's first president. It can be said that the small tie has gained valuable experience from him. Parker has told Zuckerberg to maintain the importance of control of the company. Parker drafted legal documents to ensure Zuckerberg has strong control. Parker also helped Zuckerberg hiring a large number of early-stage employees while on Facebook, dominated the first few rounds of Facebook financing and drew notable investors such as Peter Thiel.

Later, he and 42-year-old COO Sandberg became managing gold partner, in fact, many aspects of Sandberg is Zuckerberg's teacher, how to deal with his staff and how to build Facebook's business.

In the early days of Facebook, Zuckerberg also sought advice from Steve Jobs. They often walk together in the afternoon. Zuckerberg also learned a lot from the apple, such as in the form of Apple's F8 annual meeting. In the early stages of Apple's development, Steve Jobs often make a decision to take a walk. Later, Zuckerberg also often follow the example of Steve Jobs, making a decision to recruit certain executives when walking.

Bill Gates has been an idol of Zuckerberg when he was young, and Bill Gates often advised Zuckerberg on corporate philosophy and management issues. Zuckerberg also consulted with Warren Buffett on Facebook's listing proposal, who told him that it was right to maintain close control of the company, even after listing.

Now, we can also see that Zuckerberg constantly learn how to do charity effectively with Bill Gates and Buffett et al.

Actively face criticism

In addition to what everybody might know about, former Facebook employees also broke some "little secrets." That is, the small tie in the company when the various controversial events, will take the initiative to stand up and Q & A with employees, to face all kinds of criticisms with an inclusive attitude.

For example, in the early days of Facebook, Peter Thiel sold all the FB shares in his hands, which led to the FB's stock dropping all the way. The company quickly organized Q & A in the canteen, and Xiao Zha and Peter Thiel questioned their employees. The staff's questioning can be very direct, for example, you sell the stock, it is not right to withdraw from the board of directors.

If this is an external reason, Facebook suffered another employee's question after its acquisition of WhatsApp. The same day, Xiao Zha organized a temporary Q & A to respond to various questions from employees. Such as "why the acquisition is willing to spend so much money, but not to staff salaries."

It can be said precisely because of such a face-to-face criticism, inclusive attitude, so that Facebook's internal opinion expression has been very active, and this will allow employees to have a sense of responsibility to the company, with ownership.

Although there are comments always ridicule how mature and stable, is not to run for president, but you know, the most horrible thing is that he is only 33 years old ah ....
