Individuals naturally adept at business often possess a keen sense of survival in difficult environments, the ability to detect business opportunities, and the skill to leverage available resources to seize these opportunities. They continuously learn and adapt to new business norms and practices, ensuring their strategies evolve with the times.
Professor Zhou transitioned to academia driven by a long-held dream to become a professor, influenced by his early mentors and a desire to contribute to business education. Despite a successful corporate career, he found fulfillment in teaching and researching business models, visiting over 200 companies annually to stay at the forefront of business insights.
The essence of business, according to Professor Zhou, is about perpetual growth and adaptability. It involves continuously evolving business practices to thrive across different eras, focusing on resource mobilization, mechanism design, and element adjustment to create viable business models.
A successful business model includes marketing and sales business loops, technological research and development, supply chain management, and capital and financial operations. It's essential to integrate these components effectively to ensure the business can adapt and thrive in changing environments.
Professor Zhou emphasizes the transformative impact of technology on modern business, particularly through online, social, and digital innovations. He highlights the importance of adopting new technologies like AI to reduce costs and enhance efficiency, ensuring businesses remain competitive.
本期我们邀请的嘉宾是:新加坡国立大学兼任教授——周宏骐老师。
关于周宏骐老师,我说他“文武双全”。早期周老师在很多世界500 强企业工作过,他最高的职位是做到惠普亚洲区高级副总裁,负责销售业务。再后来,他是印度惠普的第三任董事长。
周老师过去的商业经历,有非常多的实战经验。再后来,周老师“弃武从文”,去了新加坡国立大学,主要从事商业模式的相关研究。周老师本人对新生的企业模型,有非常浓厚的兴趣。他觉得研究公司、研究商业是一个非常幸福的事情,也花很长时间呆在中国研究国内的企业,毕竟中国是最大的市场。
所以本期我和周老师聊了聊:关于做生意的本质、商业的模型、公司的经营等等话题,也从周老师的视角里,看到了那些非常会做生意的人/优秀的经营者,都需要具备哪些核心特质。
