Operating management — the blind man feeling the elephant's belly and thinking himself up against a landslide — tends to see things functionally.
运营主管则好比摸到了象肚,却以为摸到了山坡,完全从职能性的角度来看事情。
Each level needs its particular vision; it could not do its job without it.
每个层次的管理者都需要具备独特的眼光,否则无法把工作做好。
Yet, these visions are so different that people on different levels talking about the same thing often do not realize it — or, as frequently happens, believe that they are talking about the same thing, when in reality they are poles apart.
但是,由于每位管理者看事情的角度大相径庭,因此常见的情况是,不同层次的管理者明明在讨论同一件事情,却浑然不知,或明明讨论的是南辕北辙的不同事情,却误以为大家谈的是同一件事。
