The Fifth Discipline

After reading a famous book, we must have many thoughts about life or things, it is time to take time to write after reading. I think many people are worried about how to write a good after-reading, the following is my "Fifth Discipline" after-reading, welcome to read and collect.

"The Fifth Discipline" after reading Part 1

American management master Peter Senge and some management scholars, outstanding entrepreneurs *** with several years of effort, with the Fifth Discipline - the art and practice of learning organization book, summed up the introduction of a complete set of strong operation, theory and practice combined with a new type of business management, and thus called the "Fifth Discipline". The book summarizes and introduces a complete set of new enterprise management methods with strong operation and a combination of theory and practice, which is called the "management bible of the 21st century". Its purpose is: to turn the organization into a living organism that can flexibly stretch and change randomly in the face of any complex external changes. The core idea is learning: the organization's individuals and enterprises to learn together, the organization in the individual through learning to complete the continuous self-transcendence, based on team learning, so that the organization into a learning organization.

The book has its unique insights into each of the five practices, and the combination of the five practices is just right to make people feel y after reading.

The First Discipline: Personal Mastery

The discipline of "self-transcendence" is about clarifying and deepening one's true desires, focusing one's energies, cultivating patience, and observing reality objectively. It is the spiritual foundation of a learning organization. People who are skilled in "self-transcendence" are able to realize their deepest desires, and their attitude towards life is like that of an artist towards a work of art, which is a true lifelong "learning" with dedication, creativity, and transcendence.

The Second Discipline: Improving Mental Models

"Mental Models" are the many assumptions embedded in our minds that influence how we judge the world and how we act, stereotypes, or even images and impressions. Turning the mirror on ourselves is the beginning of the practice of mental modeling; by doing so, we learn to uncover images of our inner world, bring them to the surface, and scrutinize them. It also involves the ability to engage in a learning-effective conversation that balances questioning and expression - effectively expressing one's own ideas and accommodating the ideas of others with an open mind.

The Third Discipline: Building Shared Vision

An organization cannot be great without all its members y sharing the same goals, values, and mission. Leadership that is, to give the organization to inspire and enlighten, have the ability to share the picture of the future that we seek, great organizations are without exception with *** same identity and destiny belonging to the sense of people successfully cohesive together. This is because a ****same vision inspires genuine belief, willingness to act and committed participation, not just obedience.

The Fourth Discipline: Team Learning

When everyone in a management group is seriously involved, and everyone's IQ is above 120, why is the collective IQ only 62? The practice of group learning deals with this dilemma. There are many amazing examples that show that the collective intelligence of the group is higher than the individual intelligence, and the group has the ability to act as a whole. When a group is truly learning, not only does the group as a whole produce excellent results, but the individual members also grow faster than in other ways of learning.

The Fifth Discipline: Systems Thinking

Systems Thinking is a discipline that integrates the other disciplines into a coherent system of theory and practice. He prevents the other practices from becoming scattered and independent parts. Without a systemic view one would not want to understand the relationship between the other cultivations. It is only by reinforcing the other disciplines and the relationships between them that an organization can function properly and positively. The Fifth Discipline is a constant reminder that the whole is greater than the combination of its parts.

Summary:

Developing a ****similar vision fosters commitment to long-term goalsThe practice of mindfulness focuses on opening up our minds, which is a necessary process for discovering the limitations of our current ways of seeing the world. Team learning fosters the collective skill of seeing beyond the limitations of individual perspectives to a larger picture. Self-transcendence, on the other hand, inspires a personal motivation that keeps us learning and understanding how our actions affect our world. The most important systems thinking is our understanding of the new ways that learning organizations, i.e. individuals, see themselves and the world.

Incorporating the five practices is essential to achieving a learning organization, yet it is a challenging task because it is much harder to integrate a new tool than to simply apply them individually. But at the same time, the rewards of doing so are immeasurable.

"The Fifth Discipline" after reading Part 2

"The Fifth Discipline" is an old book from the first edition in 1990, but it is still recommended by all the teachers in the School of Management, so it is a classic in the field of management. Searching for word-of-mouth comments on the book online, many entrepreneurs believe that the views advocated in the book are also today's enterprises in the field situation is also meaningful and valuable.

Current business problems: the organization is dismembered and separated, the organization as a whole is missing.

With the abuse of quality management system in the enterprise, KPI, target management, quota bonuses, etc. have gradually turned everyone in the organization into a screw, and thus the lack of global perspective, which will not only allow employees to produce active and positive illusion, but also let everyone always think that "the enemy is on the outside", and then use a series of passive response. The root of all these problems lies in the lack of a systemic view.

Five disciplines: self-transcendence, mental modeling, ****same vision, team learning, and systems thinking.

The method of systematic thinking: combing the relationship between the various things in the system, for example: speed, gas, brakes, the bigger the gas, the faster the speed, the bigger the brakes, the slower the speed of the car. The complexity of various things, in the final analysis, there are only three relationships: positive feedback, negative feedback and delay. To solve the problem, you also need to find the right entry point, this is the bar point, to find the role of the bar benefit point, the key is to observe the structural model behind the event.

Application of tools: combined with Liu Run teacher's "Business Insight", thinking about how to use positive feedback, analyze their own enhancement loop in terms of exercise, from January to fix the time period of 6:00 am ~ 7:00 am every day to exercise, unlimited sports content, adhere to a month and a half, weight loss of many pounds, BMI is also converging to the standard, highly encouraged, punching the card in the group is also encouraged by the group. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of time to do your job and then you'll be able to get a good deal of time to do your job.

Summarizing: the cause enhances the effect, and the effect in turn enhances the cause, forming a loop, a circle, a cycle of enhancement.

The Fifth Discipline: Part 3

"It's not a matter of concern to me," is both a barrier to self-learning and a "roadblock" to the efficient operation of the enterprise.

In real life, many people think that the work as long as they do their part, other things let others do it, even if a little more on the complaints. Day by day work, lack of enthusiasm and initiative. In fact, this approach, the biggest loss is their own, which is tantamount to wasting their lives. A person who only do their own work, seemingly responsible for their own work, in fact, on their own, the company is irresponsible.

When people in an organization focus only on their own positions, and limit themselves to the boundaries of their positions, they are not aware of the correlation between the different positions in the work, and lack a sense of responsibility and commitment to the consequences of this correlation. That is to say, they limit their responsibility to their own duties, always with an "isolated, static, one-sided" thinking to look at the problem of work, the lack of dialectical thinking and development vision. Obviously, things are not done, but everyone thinks that their work is done very well, the problem is not in their own here, this is because the individual's position is not high enough, the eye is too narrow, pattern is too small.

"I'm just a person, I can't care so much; this thing has nothing to do with me, I have no problem doing my own work; more than one thing is better than one thing" I believe that there are a lot of people who work with similar ideas. If you can not break through this "ego" pattern, stand to a higher position to look at the overall situation, then we will see only short-term interests, get a leaf, but the loss of the whole forest. "I am myself", "I am my position" of this unilateral identity, cut off the individual and collective responsibility connection, not only limit their own development, but also the lack of sense of responsibility, once there is no collectivist sense of responsibility and honor, self-transcendence, Teamwork and *** with the same vision will become empty talk.

The real good people, after doing their part is not enough, he will be more proactive to do more work. Raise the inner standard higher and higher, constantly learning new knowledge and new business, accumulate new experience, so that they have gained, but also make the enterprise and their own development.

Therefore, we must break the "I am my position" this concept of bondage, can not be independent of the organization, we must see themselves as part of the collective, can not be separated. When we integrate ourselves into the collective organization, we will have a lot of things in awe, will not be on the other high and mighty, will feel their own small, do things will be for others to consider more, our mentality will be more "humble", our ability will be more powerful, our organization will also go farther!

The book "The Fifth Discipline" describes the establishment of a learning organization requires five disciplines, respectively, self-transcendence, improve mental model, establish *** with the same vision, team learning, systematic thinking, these five disciplines can be said to be the five concepts or principles, and the fifth discipline is the first four in a sense the basis of the systematic thinking of the level of our decision to the first four can achieve the first four disciplines, the level of the systematic thinking of the first four disciplines can achieve the first four disciplines, the level of the systematic thinking of the first four disciplines can achieve the first four disciplines. The level of our systematic thinking also determines the height of the final effect of the first four practices can be realized.

In the third chapter of the book, the abstract concept of systems thinking is first presented in front of us through the story of a "beer game", which gives me a better understanding of system structure, and the prerequisite of system structure construction is that we learn how to think systematically. The law of the fifth practice that we learned today is to summarize the important laws and principles of systematic thinking through systematic thinking, and this law of systematic thinking can be applied to our life, work, and even any kind of social environment. Systems thinking is a higher and more comprehensive dimension to look at what is going on at the moment, it is a global awareness and big picture awareness, but also a longer cycle to analyze the overall and long-term pros and cons.

Studying this book has opened our eyes to several potential sources of great power in individuals and organizations. When these forces are truly mastered, we will gain continuous improvement, and the authors of this book are making the point that we need to develop learning teamwork. I think it is more important that we should learn the theory we need and put this theory into practice to really live and learn. At the same time in the team trust each other, complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, for the team **** the same goal to go all out, in order to create amazing results.

Now the company is drawing the vision blueprint of the JAC Canal, to realize this **** the same vision, we need to use systematic thinking on the basis of completing self-transcendence, improve the mental model, and constantly improve the level of personal business and problem-solving ability, at the same time, as a team, we have to continue to **** the same learning, cooperate with each other, and work hard for the realization of our **** the same vision.

"The Fifth Discipline" after reading Part 5

By reading the fifth discipline allows me to have a clearer understanding of systems thinking, systems thinking to get rid of the singularity of linear thinking, systems thinking is a thinking framework for observing the interactions of the correlation, rather than observing the individual discrete things, systems thinking is to see the pattern of change, rather than a static problem.

In terms of how individuals see themselves and the world, systems thinking allows one to move from looking at the local to looking at the whole, from seeing people as helpless reactive creatures to seeing them as active participants in shaping their own reality; from reacting to the present to creating the future. Without systems thinking, there is no motivation or methodology for integrating these learning disciplines in practice. As the fifth discipline, systems thinking is the cornerstone of how learning organizations see the world.

At the heart of a learning organization is a transformation of the mind. Understanding the meaning of the term "transformation of the mind" leads to an understanding of the deeper meaning of the term "learning" because learning also involves a fundamental transformation or uplifting of the mind. "We all say it, and we all say it very well, but what is learning? But what exactly is learning? The above passage from the text suggests that true learning is closely related to "spiritual transformation". So what is spiritual transformation? Spiritual transformation points to what it means to be human, that is, to have values. Such a viewpoint creates a protective shield from which people retreat, panic, and feel helpless when they step outside. But one longs to break out of this shield because there is something behind it that people need. Such a contradiction generates the motivation that drives people to learn.

However, if one is still only learning inside the shield, then the distance from what we want is getting farther and farther away. True learning is to keep expanding the boundaries of one's shields by improving one's cognition, so that those desired visions can enter one's zone. The process of expanding the boundaries is the process of spiritual transformation, which is true learning. In the real learning process also need to help us establish learning methods and goals through systematic thinking, first of all, we need to clearly cognize the knowledge boundary, the current status of their own knowledge reserves are listed and associated, the establishment of a preliminary knowledge system framework, on the basis of which the expansion of learning, that is, the positioning of the learning objectives and the preparation of the corresponding target system, often ask yourself in the future a certain period of time in what state you want to achieve. Ask yourself from time to time what kind of state you want to achieve in a certain period of time in the future, and explore what other necessary skills and knowledge are lacking to achieve this goal state, thus compiling a target knowledge system. After the establishment of the target system, the next step is to carry out the corresponding study according to this system and constantly summarize and reflect on the deficiencies and make up for them. And then step by step to approach and achieve the established goals.

Back to the learning organization, the same need for such a continuous establishment of the goal system and the process of iterative upgrading, so that the development of the individual and the realization of the goal of excellence in the enterprise complement each other, the power of the team can also be able to play to the extreme.

The Fifth Discipline: Part 6

Whether in life or work, we will encounter a variety of problems. As the book says, the solution and improvement of a problem depends on the way we think about it; different ways of thinking may result in a vicious circle of beer games or the successful implementation of a "bank holiday".

In the face of real-world problems, I think systems thinking is needed to solve and improve problems.

What is systems thinking? I think systematic thinking is to have a global view, grasp the structure of the system, clear the ultimate goal of the overall situation and their position in the overall situation, as the starting point and landing point of their own thinking, that is, through the phenomenon to see the essence of the phenomenon can not be misled by the surface phenomena, can not let the "reactive management" continue to popular, that is, to think dynamically, linked to all the structures within the system thinking. The first thing you need to do is to think about all the structures in the system.

For example, the department as a system, departmental work summary material writing is an important work within the system, I am responsible for the coordination of the work of the relocation, other people are responsible for the work I may not be very clear, but I want to complete this summary, it can not be a single point of view from the perspective of my position to think about the structure, content, wording and so on, but to stand in the department and even the entire company, The city's whole situation is to consider the focus of all the work in the system, responsibility, initiatives, etc., in order to be able to comprehensively and systematically reflect the work situation.

How can we do systematic thinking?

First, we must learn more, whether it is political theory or business knowledge, and continue to accumulate their own knowledge;

Second, we must think more and more, including thinking about different issues and different ways of thinking about the same issue;

Third, we must pay attention to the details, the depth of understanding of the problem, depends largely on the mastery of the details, through the control of the details can help us to depth thinking

Fourth, write more, write is a best way to organize ideas, will be all the ideas and thoughts written down, in the process will allow us to think more;

Fifth, more practice, practice is the only standard for testing the truth, with the practice to test the thinking of the thing is not correct, can not solve and improve the problem, so as to further enhance the ability to think systematically.

In short, in the department of this system, it is to constantly do new work, learn new knowledge, think of new problems, summarize new experiences for the department management to enhance the future development of the company to play an important role as a member of the system.

"The Fifth Discipline" after reading Part 7

In the era of increasingly dramatic knowledge updating and fierce competition, attaching importance to knowledge learning and ability enhancement is a powerful initiative in the face of the new situation. Learning is an indispensable part of a person's life, it is endless, but how to play the real value of its learning?

Through the study of the book "The Fifth Discipline", a deeper understanding of the new era of learning. Great team learning creates the highest value you could ever want. Through the continuous transformation of the team, day by day, pioneering and innovative, in practice to find problems and solve problems.

The Fifth Discipline is a book that describes a new way of thinking about management, summarized and enhanced by Dr. Peter Senge, a renowned American management scientist, on the basis of System Dynamics and Chaos Theory created by his teacher, Forrest.

The Fifth Discipline gave me a deep understanding of the importance of a learning organization. A learning organization works to improve the nature of thinking, strengthen the capacity for reflection and group learning, and develop the ability to ***share a vision and ***share responsibility for the complexity of the school. In a "learning organization", many people with the same vision form a large learning community, in which people are able to move forward with their own vision. At the same time in the team to continue to realize their own potential, dare to challenge the limits, continue to innovate, help others, and other people together, *** with the fruits of knowledge creation.

The establishment of a learning organization requires five disciplines, namely self-transcendence, improving mental models, establishing *** with the ideal, team learning, and systematic thinking. The first and second practices are personal learning, the third is to motivate the team to strive for their goals, and the fourth is team learning.

These five practices also gave me some insights:

Self-transcendence is our pursuit of learning, in this world, our biggest enemy is self. We must always keep a clear head, sort out what we really aspire to in the end, and work tirelessly to achieve this goal. Filled with a heart to challenge ourselves, we can utilize our imagination and creativity to constantly discover and solve problems.
