From Good to Great
http://www.hwswworld.com/wp/?p=78
I switched to a German car from a small American car starting from yesterday, and that gives me a large amount of driving pleasure, its precision, its rhythm and smoothness, makes one hardly to believe. I bought my 1st car 11 years ago at Iowa City, a used American car from a car dealer. I had used it for around 3 years till I left Irvine after my graduation, and bought a brand new Japanese car after I got hired by a company at the bay area. I still remember that the weather at Iowa was so cold, that I even could not start my car until my roommate got an engine heater for me. I also remembered that it cost me 1/5 of my Ford Tempo’s value to ship it from Iowa to California while I was moving by the air. I used my prev. car here at Shanghai for over 3 years, once you are on it, you have to get used to it, there were glitches, but it was OK for me
German cars, American cars and Japanese cars, they are different technically and culture-wise. Some people prefer to drive German cars, some prefer to drive American Cars, and some prefer to drive Japanese cars. In my opinion, there are basically 4 factors effecting people’s purchase choices: cost (one time fixed cost), performance, reliability and energy consumption (cost spanning a car’s whole life). Oh, my God, is that the same standard when we usually adopt to evaluate a system, whether System-In-a-Package (SIP) or System-On-a-Chip (SOC)? During the past century, the car industry has been striving so hard to make our driving experience a pleasure, of course, in a broad sense, a car is also a system, with many software powered SIPs and SOCs inside it as electronics components along with many mechanical components, and both the semiconductor industry and software industry have enjoyed a much higher growth rate in a much faster pace than that of car industry.
From Good to Great - the road towards perfectness never ends, so work hard!

老子说:合抱之木,始于毫末,九层之台,始于累土,千里之行,始于足下。 同样,企业从优秀到卓越,并不象想象中那样始于某个天才的灵光突现而一挥而就。一切伟大的成就,始于意识和行动的积累,由慢到快,最后形成旋转的“飞轮”,不可小视,也不可阻挡。&n...

还是更喜欢德鲁克一些

我最喜欢的结论出现在一开始(第二章),作者的团队调查卓越公司的管理者时,“实现跨越公司的经理人均多次谈到运气”,这并不是作者想要的“结论”,也不是全书中心,我只是喜欢这样的事实来支持我自己的“宿命论”。所谓管理,现代公司的CEO和古代30万大军的统帅遇到的问题是类似的。没有哪个统帅看兵书就可以打胜仗...
