The only 4 skills you need to build a $1B company…

好的,根据之前的规划,这是第一章的完整内容。本章主要探讨了企业增长过程中必然遇到的“痛苦线”以及企业家常犯的三种错误应对方式。

章节 1:增长的陷阱:痛苦线与三种错误反应

📝 本节摘要

演讲者首先通过他在旧金山与 Naval Ravikant 的交流,引出了杠杆(Leverage)的概念:产出等于时间乘以杠杆。随后,他指出了大多数企业家在业务增长到一定阶段时会遇到的“痛苦线”(Pain Line)。面对这种增长带来的痛苦,企业家通常会做出三种错误的反应:停滞(Stall)自我破坏(Sabotage)出售(Sell)。演讲者通过真实案例分析了这些反应的弊端,并引入了“复杂性天花板”(Complexity Ceiling)这一关键概念,指出逃避并不能解决技能缺失的问题。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: I moved to San Francisco because I wanted to understand how these 20-year-olds built billion dollar companies and I meet a guy named nval robicon remember I was talking to him once about leverage the best entrepreneurs have the biggest output for unit of time time multiplied by leverage equals output and this is what I learned the ball taught me this there's only four Master skills to creating leverage once I understood this I understood I only had four things to go become world class at and I could have anything I want in my life

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我搬到旧金山是因为我想弄明白,那些 20 几岁的年轻人是如何建立起价值十亿美元的公司的。我遇到这就好了一个叫 Naval Ravikant 的人,记得有一次我和他谈论杠杆(leverage),最好的企业家在单位时间内拥有最大的产出。时间乘以杠杆等于产出。这是我学到的,是 Naval 教会了我这个:创造杠杆只有四种核心技能(Master skills)。一旦我理解了这一点,我就明白我只需要去把这四件事做到世界级水平,我就能拥有我生活中想要的一切。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: most entrepreneurs when they're growing their business it doesn't matter if it's their first 100K or 300K or million they get to a place where growing is painful and in that spot they usually do one to three things they either stall okay they say to themselves this year I made more money last year than this year I'd rather slow down right and um and and just not grow

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 大多数企业家在发展业务时,无论这是他们的第一个 10 万、30 万还是 100 万,他们都会到达一个增长变得痛苦的阶段。在那个节点,他们通常会做三件事中的一件。第一种是停滞(Stall),好吧,他们对自己说,今年我赚的钱比去年多,比起今年(继续痛苦),我宁愿慢下来,对吧,嗯,就是不再增长了。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: the problem with that is that the Market's growing right gross domestic product grows your customers will demand more from you this year than last year and the the worst part is your top people if you don't create a future that's big enough for them then they will go find somebody else can do that does that Mak sense your dreams right this sound your dreams have to be bigger than everybody else on your team's dreams and goals write it down so that's St number two sabotage this one's fascinating some of you guys don't even know you're doing this

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 这样做的问题在于市场在增长,对吧,国内生产总值(GDP)在增长。你的客户今年对你的要求会比去年更多。最糟糕的部分是你的顶尖人才,如果你不能为他们创造一个足够大的未来,那么他们就会去找其他能做到这一点的人。这有道理吗?你的梦想,听好了,你的梦想必须比你团队中其他所有人的梦想和目标都要大。把它写下来。所以那是“停滞”。第二种是自我破坏(Sabotage)。这一个很迷人,你们中的一些人甚至不知道自己在这样做。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: I have a friend of mine Tracy business was going through some challenges 6 months of Hell we've all been there it's tough and in that storm Tracy tells herself I need to give myself a break and she decides to take a 4-we sabatical do you think a company that's struggling the CEO of the company should take a four-week sabatical yes or yes no perfect you guys are on the same page this great but she didn't realize she was sabotaging her success she had opportunity to keep growing because when we're going through the worst just so you know this when we go through the worst we're actually developing our skills to get to the next level huge

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我有一个朋友特雷西(Tracy),生意正面临一些挑战,经历了 6 个月的地狱般的生活,我们都经历过,那很艰难。在那场风暴中,特雷西告诉自己:我需要让自己休息一下。于是她决定休 4 周的休假(sabbatical)。你们认为一家正在挣扎的公司,其 CEO 应该休 4 周的假吗?是还是是?不。很好,你们达成了共识,这很棒。但她没有意识到她在破坏她的成功。她本有机会继续增长,因为当我们经历最糟糕的时期时——你们要知道这一点——当我们经历最糟糕的时期时,我们实际上是在发展我们的技能以达到下一个层次,这非常重要。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: okay so understand when you're challenged you should say thank you wey opponent this is going to shakee me to become the person I need to become to get to the next level instead Tracy went on to sabatical she missed the opportunity to grow the third is sell

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 好的,所以要明白,当你受到挑战时,你应该说:谢谢你,值得尊敬的对手(worthy opponent),这将通过震荡让我成为我在下一阶段需要成为的那个人。相反,特雷西去休假了,她错过了成长的机会。第三种是出售(Sell)

[原文] [Dan Martell]: my buddy Jason calls me one day and he's like hey man I think I'm going to sell my company he has an agency 2 million in Revenue been doing it for about seven or eight years and it just became really tough and I said Jason write down all the stuff that you don't like about your business today and he made me a list and I said if those things weren't true would you sell the business he's like no I said well let me invite you to consider a different perspective I know you want to go do something else you think the grass is greener here's what I know you've just hit your new complex it ceiling we all have them write down complexity ceiling complexity ceiling anytime it gets hard I want you to look at that term

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我的哥们杰森(Jason)有一天给我打电话,他说:嘿,伙计,我想我要卖掉我的公司。他经营一家代理公司,营收 200 万,做了大概七八年,现在变得非常艰难。我说:杰森,写下今天你所有不喜欢你生意的地方。他给我列了一个清单。我说:如果这些事情不存在,你会卖掉生意吗?他说:不会。我说:好吧,让我邀请你考虑一个不同的视角。我知道你想去做别的事情,你觉得那边的草更绿。但我知道的是:你刚刚撞上了你的新复杂性天花板(complexity ceiling)。我们都有这个。写下来:复杂性天花板,复杂性天花板。任何时候当事情变得艰难,我希望你看着这个词。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: I said it doesn't matter if you solve it now or you leave and start something else you will hit the same level of complexity where you decide I don't want to grow anymore it's your pain line so what I want to share with you today are three strategies to overcome that pain line

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我说,无论你是现在解决它,还是离开去开始别的事情,这都不重要,你终将会撞上同样水平的复杂性,在那时你会决定“我不想再增长了”。这就是你的痛苦线(pain line)。所以我今天要与你们分享的是克服那条痛苦线的三个策略。


请告诉我是否继续输出第2章,我们将深入探讨解决这一问题的核心方法论:回购原则(The Buyback Principle)

这是第2章的内容。在这一章中,Dan Martell 提出了他最核心的方法论——回购原则(The Buyback Principle),并重新定义了企业家的终极目标。

章节 2:回购原则:从日历审计到建立商业帝国

📝 本节摘要

本节介绍了解决增长瓶颈的核心策略:回购原则(The Buyback Principle)。Dan 强调,招聘的本质不是为了增加产能,而是为了回购时间。他详细拆解了“回购循环”(Buyback Loop)的三个步骤:审计(Audit)转移(Transfer)填充(Fill)。他还提出了“帝国”(Empire)的全新定义——一种你永远不需要退休的无限创造的生活。最后,他警告企业家不要将回购来的时间浪费在低价值任务($10 tasks)上。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: the first principle that I want to share with you and it's a universal principle it's the buyback principle

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我想和你们分享的第一条原则,也是一条普遍原则,就是回购原则(buyback principle)

[原文] [Dan Martell]: we don't hire people to grow our business we hire people to buy back our time it's a calendar over a capacity strategy see most entrepreneurs when they're growing they go well now I need to hire another logo designer I need to hire another real estate agent I need to hire another um you know electrician and I would say no you start with your calendar first because here's the deal if you do the second you get the first but if you do the first you definitely don't get the second

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我们雇人不是为了增长我们的业务,我们雇人是为了回购我们的时间。这是一种“日历优于产能”(calendar over a capacity)的策略。你看,大多数企业家在增长时会想:好吧,现在我需要再雇一个标志设计师,我需要再雇一个房地产经纪人,我需要再雇一个,你知道,电工。而我会说:不,你要先从你的日历开始。因为事情是这样的:如果你做第二种(回购时间),你会得到第一种(业务增长);但如果你只做第一种(雇人增长业务),你绝对得不到第二种。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: most entrepreneurs get to about 1.2 million about 12 employees where their life starts to get really painful that pain line is screaming at them every day because they violated this rule this is the framework draw this Loop okay it's a loop you need to go through these three steps to move forward so every time I hit a pain line okay today I own dozens of companies and my calendar completely shifts two or three times a year so I'm going to teach you the exact same thoughts of how I look at my calendar every time I hit my pain line

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 大多数企业家在达到大约 120 万营收、约 12 名员工时,他们的生活开始变得非常痛苦。那条痛苦线(pain line)每天都在向他们尖叫,因为他们违反了这条规则。这就是那个框架,画下这个循环,好吗?这是一个循环。你需要经历这三个步骤才能前进。所以每当我触碰到痛苦线——好吧,今天我拥有几十家公司,我的日历每年会完全变换两三次——所以我将教给你们我每次触碰痛苦线时审视日历的完全相同的思路。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: first step is we got to audit we got to audit our calendar for time and energy it's not enough to just look at what we're doing that we could pay somebody else to do it's what are we doing that sucks our energy what I call green or red stuff if we can replace that with green we will transform Our Lives

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 第一步是我们要审计(Audit)。我们要审计我们日历的时间和能量。仅仅看我们在做什么以及我们可以付钱让别人做什么是不够的,关键是我们在做什么事情会吸走我们的能量。我称之为“绿色”或“红色”的事情。如果我们能用绿色(给我们能量的事)替换掉那些,我们将彻底改变我们的生活。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: then transfer is the ability to give what we're doing today the work to somebody else but check this out without taking any extra time using the camcorder method and then the third the problem with Phil is most people get to the first and second step and then they decide to do a 4-Hour Work week I ain't here to do a 4-Hour Work Week okay I'm here to teach you guys all how to create an empire

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 然后是转移(Transfer),就是把我们今天正在做的工作交给别人的能力。但注意这点:要在不花费任何额外时间的情况下做到这一点,使用“摄像机法”(camcorder method)。然后是第三步。关于填充(Fill)的问题是,大多数人做到了第一步和第二步,然后他们决定去过“每周工作 4 小时”的生活。我不是来这里教你们做“每周工作 4 小时”的,好吗?我是来教你们所有人如何建立一个帝国(Empire)的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and that word might scare some of you but let me share with you my definition of empire you want to write this down a life of unlimited creation you never have to retire from a life of unlimited creation you never have to retire from that is an Empire if we fill properly that new found time then we continue upward

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 那个词可能会吓到你们中的一些人,但让我分享一下我对帝国的定义。你们要把这个写下来:一种你永远不需要从中退休的、无限创造的生活。一种你永远不需要从中退休的、无限创造的生活。那就是一个帝国。如果我们正确地填充那些新获得的时间,那么我们将继续向上发展。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: if we don't know what to focus on when we find that extra time then we will just repeat that cycle and some of you guys have been in that spot you grow you go down you grow you go down maybe not you maybe the people out there maybe somebody you know out there right up down up down they oscillate if you follow the buyback Loop you'll continue to grow and that's what we're here for today

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 如果我们在找到那些额外时间后不知道该专注于什么,那么我们就会重复那个循环。你们中的一些人已经处于那个位置了:你增长,你跌落,你增长,你跌落。也许不是你,也许是外面的人,也许是你认识的某个人,对吧?上,下,上,下,他们在震荡。如果你遵循回购循环(Buyback Loop),你将持续增长,这就是我们今天来这里的目的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: million-dollar companies were not built off $10 tasks write it down this is math 101 there's not enough hours in the week for you to grow if you're doing $10 task and we have a lot of mindset monsters and beliefs that just won't support us to actually scale

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 价值百万美元的公司不是建立在10 美元的任务($10 tasks)之上的。写下来,这是基础数学。如果你在做 10 美元的任务,一周里就没有足够的时间让你去增长。我们有很多思维怪兽和信念,根本不支持我们去真正地扩张规模。


请告诉我是否继续输出第3章,我们将通过理查德·布兰森的故事,引出具体的招聘策略:替代阶梯(The Replacement Ladder)

这是第3章的内容。本章通过 Dan 与亿万富翁理查德·布兰森(Richard Branson)的亲身接触,引出了招聘的正确顺序——“替代阶梯”(The Replacement Ladder),并纠正了许多企业家在招聘时的常见误区。

章节 3:替代阶梯:理查德·布兰森的启示与招聘顺序

📝 本节摘要

Dan 分享了他受邀前往瑞士拜访维珍集团创始人理查德·布兰森的经历。通过观察布兰森如何利用早晨的时间与助理海伦(Helen)处理工作,Dan 领悟到了高效授权的真谛。基于此,他提出了“替代阶梯”(The Replacement Ladder),详细规定了企业招聘的五个层级顺序:行政(Admin) -> 交付(Fulfillment) -> 营销(Marketing) -> 销售(Sales) -> 领导层(Leadership)。他特别强调,创始人不应过早招聘销售人员,并留下了那句著名的格言:“如果你没有助理,你就是助理。”

[原文] [Dan Martell]: the first key strategy I want to teach you about is the replacement ladder so I want to ask everybody to write down if you are starting from scratch today and you had the ability to hire your first employee who would they be write down the answer who would you hire first

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我想教你们的第一个关键策略是替代阶梯(replacement ladder)。我想请大家写下来,如果你今天从零开始,并且有能力雇佣你的第一个员工,那会是谁?写下答案,你会先雇佣谁?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: there is a strategy that I learned from this guy Richard Branson okay now here's the cool thing about Richard Richard's the billionaire every billionaire wants to be like it's just true... in 2016 or 15 I got a I got a cold email from my buddy out of the blue hey Den um I'm getting together with Richard Branson in verbi Switzerland do you want to join hm let me look at my schedule

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 有一个策略是我从理查德·布兰森(Richard Branson)这个人那里学到的。关于理查德最酷的事情是,他是每个亿万富翁都想成为的那种亿万富翁,这是真的……在 2016 年或 15 年,我突然收到一个朋友的冷邮件(陌生邮件):嘿 Dan,我要去瑞士韦尔比耶和理查德·布兰森聚聚,你想来吗?嗯,让我看看我的日程表。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: yeah clear of course I want to join like I grew up reading his books... I wanted to understand how does a guy some of you may not realize this Richard Branson has 400 companies in the Virgin group of businesses... I wanted to understand how he thought about scale and leverage and I just watched I watched how he interacted with his staff I watch how he manages time

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 是的,有空,我当然想去,我是读着他的书长大的……我想弄明白,一个人——你们有些人可能不知道——理查德·布兰森在维珍集团旗下拥有 400 家公司……我想弄明白他是如何思考规模和杠杆的。所以我只是观察,观察他如何与员工互动,观察他如何管理时间。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and this is what I saw that I didn't expect at the time I had a virtual assistant I had assistant over the years right we've all had them what was different was watching Richard essentially anything that came into his life went through his assistant Helen and every morning for breakfast they would sit there for 60 to 90 minutes depending on what was on Helen's list she would review only the things that she didn't know how to deal with she didn't know how to route she thought Richard would want to know about and they just had breakfast they talked and then the rest of the day he came skiing with us that's how he ran 400 companies

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 这就是我看到的,当时我完全没预料到。我有虚拟助理,多年来我一直有助理,对吧,我们要么都有过。不同之处在于观察理查德,本质上任何进入他生活的事情都要经过他的助理海伦(Helen)。每天早餐时,他们会坐在那里 60 到 90 分钟,取决于海伦的清单上有什么。她只审查那些她不知道如何处理、不知道如何分发、或者她认为理查德会想知道的事情。他们只是吃早餐,聊天,然后那一天的剩下时间他都和我们一起滑雪。这就是他管理 400 家公司的方式。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: do you guys want to learn the other stuff that I learned from Richard yes or yes perfect this is the replacement ladder we start at the bottom we work our way up why let me tell you two different things one it's the lowest cost to pay somebody to do the work for the biggest time purchase back in your life if you do it right

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 你们想学习我从理查德那里学到的其他东西吗?是还是是?很好,这就是替代阶梯。我们从底部开始,逐级向上。为什么?让我告诉你们两点。第一,如果做得对,这是支付给某人做这项工作的最低成本,却能为你的人生回购最多的时间。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so level one you might be feeling stuck in your business is because you don't have somebody to support you on your account and your your in your admin work but the key is to do like Richard did and give your inbox and calendar to your assistant... your inbox your email is nothing more than a public to-do list of other people's goals on your time write that down

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以第一级(Level 1),你可能觉得生意陷入困境,是因为在你的账户和行政工作中没有人支持你。关键是要像理查德那样做,把你的收件箱和日历交给你的助理……你的收件箱,你的电子邮件,不过是别人利用你的时间来实现他们目标的公共待办事项清单。把它写下来。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: number two is your customer success your fulfillment this is where you have somebody that helps you but the key is you got to give away your support and onboarding... level three is marketing right now you want to start building and designing a Playbook to generate leads okay because if you don't do this I'll tell you what happen sales is four because you as a CEO will always be able to sell better than anybody else you hire

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 第二级(Level 2)是你的客户成功,你的交付(Fulfillment)。这是你让人帮助你的地方,但关键是你必须把支持和入职流程交出去……第三级(Level 3)营销(Marketing)。现在你要开始建立和设计一个生成潜在客户的剧本。因为如果你不这样做,我告诉你会发生什么。销售(Sales)是第四级,因为作为 CEO,你永远比你雇佣的任何人都更会销售。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and the challenge if you hire too quick and you don't have the systems underneath what happens in 6 months is you either fire them because they're not performing because they don't have enough reps and they don't have enough deals or they quit because they're not making any money anybody resonate with that

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 挑战在于,如果你雇佣得太快(指过早雇佣销售),而底层没有系统支持,6 个月内会发生的情况是:要么你解雇他们,因为他们表现不佳,没有足够的练习机会,没有足够的交易;要么他们辞职,因为他们赚不到钱。有人对此有共鸣吗?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and the highest level is the elt write this down executive leadership team some of you guys call call them leaders and managers here's my rule do they come with playbooks do they come with process if you hire people or or you know promote people up that has no experience then you're just create more work for yourself

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 最高级别是 ELT,写下来,执行领导团队(Executive Leadership Team)。你们有些人称他们为领导者和经理。我的规则是:他们带着剧本(Playbooks)来吗?他们带着流程来吗?如果你雇佣或者提拔没有经验的人,那你只是在给自己制造更多的工作。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: you know what happens if you go straight to the top how many people have you heard say I need to hire a COO you don't even have an Executive Admin that's the silliest thing in the world if you can't even work with your admin you are not going to work with the COO

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 你们知道如果你直接跳到顶层会发生什么吗?你们听过多少人说“我需要雇一个首席运营官(COO)”?你甚至连一个行政助理都没有。这是世界上最愚蠢的事情。如果你连助理都配合不好,你是不可能和 COO 配合好的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: here's my philosophy if you don't have an assistant you are one

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 这是我的哲学:如果你没有助理,你就是助理。


请告诉我是否继续输出第4章,我们将深入探讨 Naval Ravikant 提出的杠杆四大支柱(The 4 C's of Leverage)

这是第4章的内容。紧接上一章关于招聘和助理的话题,Dan 在本章深入探讨了企业家为何需要通过杠杆(Leverage)来突破瓶颈。他回顾了自己在旧金山向 Naval Ravikant 学习的经历,正式提出了创造无限产出的四大支柱(4 C's)

章节 4:杠杆的四大支柱:资本、代码、内容与协作

📝 本节摘要

在指出很多企业家“工资过高但表现糟糕”的残酷事实后,Dan 回顾了自己 2008 年搬到旧金山的经历。他再次提到了硅谷哲学家 Naval Ravikant 对他的启发,重申了核心公式:时间 x 杠杆 = 产出。Dan 引导观众思考创造杠杆的工具,并最终揭示了四大核心技能(The 4 Master Skills):资本(Capital)代码(Code)内容(Content)协作(Collaboration)。他强调,只要掌握这四项技能,企业家就能在生活中拥有想要的一切。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: I know it stigs right I'm GNA I'm going to take the dagger and just a little bit more the other parts of this is you're overpaid and you kind of suck okay a great executive ad admin they're worth their weighting gold okay so if you don't have one you are the person and you're overpaid you're not very good at your job

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我知道这很刺痛,对吧?我要把这把匕首再插深一点。这其中的另一部分原因是:你的薪水过高,而且你干得有点烂,好吗?一个优秀的行政主管,他们的价值等同于他们的体重(非常有价值),好吗?所以如果你没有一个助理,你就是那个助理,而且你的薪水过高,你并不擅长那份工作。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so what do we do with that I want to talk about leadership and I'll tell you why I know CEOs and entrepreneurs are crazy you guys agree yes or yes we're nuts think about it the reason why we're in business in the first place is cuz we're able to deal with a level of risk that most people would puke on themselves and pass out like you do understand this

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 那么我们该怎么办呢?我想谈谈领导力,我会告诉你们为什么。我知道 CEO 和企业家都是疯子。你们同意吗?是还是是?我们是疯子。想一想,我们之所以做生意,是因为我们要能够应对一种风险水平,这种风险会让大多数人吐自己一身然后晕过去。你们要明白这一点。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so just admit to it and then try to develop the leadership skills and protect your team from you some of you guys expect your team to show up like you and that's just silly they aren't you and if they were guess what they'd be building their own company so what happens is the way we lead our teams have to shift okay

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以承认吧,然后试着发展领导技能,保护你的团队免受你的伤害。你们中的一些人期望团队像你一样表现,那太愚蠢了。他们不是你。如果他们是你,猜猜怎么着?他们早就去建立自己的公司了。所以我们要转变领导团队的方式,好吗?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so I moved to San Francisco in 2008 this is after selling my first company I became a multi-millionaire at 27 and I it crushed me like I I worked easily 100 hours a week for four years... so I moved to San Francisco because I wanted to understand how these 20-year-olds built billion dollar companies

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以我在 2008 年搬到了旧金山,那是在卖掉我的第一家公司之后。我在 27 岁时成为了千万富翁,但这压垮了我。我那四年里每周轻松工作 100 个小时……所以我搬到旧金山是因为我想弄明白,这些 20 几岁的年轻人是如何建立起价值十亿美元的公司的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and I meet a guy named nval rant this is 2008 nval today has been on Joe Rogan he's an incredible like just philosopher honestly but I met him earlier on and he kind of became a a mentor of mine... I remember I was talking to him once about leverage so you got to understand in business the best entrepreneurs have the biggest output for unit of time... time multiplied by leverage equals output

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我遇到了一个叫 Naval Ravikant 的人。那是 2008 年。Naval 现在上过 Joe Rogan 的节目,老实说他就像一位不可思议的哲学家。但我很早就遇到了他,他某种程度上成了我的导师……记得有一次我和他谈论杠杆(leverage)。你必须明白,在商业中,最好的企业家在单位时间内拥有最大的产出……时间乘以杠杆等于产出

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so I want to ask you guys all a question what are ways that we can create leverage write it down if I say what are the tools to creating leverage write it down I want you guys to answer that just one idea the number one tool for creating Leverage is... write down the answer I want to hear from everybody all right let's hear from over here what do you guys got raising money 8020 I like that anybody else social media AI delegation yeah leverage people I like that anybody else automation what else what I can't hear you system systems oo I love systems do you know what systems stands for save yourself time energy and money write that down systems equals save yourself time energy and money

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以我想问大家一个问题,我们创造杠杆的方法有哪些?写下来。如果我说“创造杠杆的工具是什么”,写下来。我希望你们回答,哪怕只有一个点子。创造杠杆的第一大工具是……写下答案。我想听听每个人的意见。好了,听听这边的,你们有什么?筹集资金。80/20 法则,我喜欢。还有谁?社交媒体。AI。授权。是的,利用人力,我喜欢。还有谁?自动化。还有什么?什么?我听不见。系统(Systems)。噢,我爱系统。你们知道 Systems 代表什么吗?S.Y.S.T.E.M.S = 省下你自己的时间、精力和金钱(Save Yourself Time Energy and Money)。把它写下来。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: here's the fun fact everybody's answer was relatively correct and this is what I learned the all taught me this there's only four I call them Master skills to creating leverage okay write these down the four system the four Master skills are number one Capital if I have money I have incredible leverage okay takes money to make money it really doesn't but it takes res resourcefulness... so capital is one

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 有趣的事实是,每个人的答案都相对正确。这是我学到的,是 Naval 教我的:只有四种我称之为“核心技能”(Master skills)的东西可以创造杠杆。好吗?把这些写下来。这四种核心技能是:第一,资本(Capital)。如果我有钱,我就有难以置信的杠杆,好吗?虽说“有钱才能赚钱”并不完全对,但它确实需要资源整合能力……所以资本是其一。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: number two is code some of you guys said Automation and AI that fits in that bucket code software three is content somebody's talked about I think podcast and social media content I can create a system an sop and it takes me an hour to create and if I have 100 employees that one system can train 100 people without extra effort from me does that make sense yes or yes

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 第二是代码(Code)。你们有些人说了自动化和 AI,那都属于这一类,代码、软件。第三是内容(Content)。有人谈到了播客和社交媒体。内容——我可以创建一个系统、一个 SOP(标准作业程序),这花我一个小时去创建,但如果我有 100 名员工,那一个系统可以培训 100 人,而不需要我付出额外努力。这有道理吗?是还是是?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: the fourth is collaboration it's people okay so the four C's write them down once I understood this I understood I only had four things to go become world class at and I could have anything I want in my life code Capital content collaboration

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 第四是协作(Collaboration),也就是人。好吗?所以这就是 4 C's,把它们写下来。一旦我理解了这一点,我就明白我只需要去把这四件事做到世界级水平,我就能拥有我生活中想要的一切:代码、资本、内容、协作


请告诉我是否继续输出第5章,我们将深入探讨“协作”这一支柱中的核心——转型领导力(Transformational Leadership)

这是第5章的内容。本章是关于管理哲学的核心转变。Dan 指出,传统的“交易型领导”是导致企业家疲于奔命的根源,并提出了“转型领导力”(Transformational Leadership)。他通过生动的案例展示了如何通过移交“结果”而非“任务”来赋能员工,并引入了“唯一数字”(One Number)的考核标准。

章节 5:转型领导力:重新定义CEO的角色与“唯一数字”

📝 本节摘要

Dan 对比了大多数企业家习惯的“交易型领导”(Transactional Leadership)与他推崇的“转型领导力”(Transformational Leadership)。前者是不断地告诉员工做什么并检查工作,导致 CEO 成为瓶颈;后者则是通过授权“结果”(Outcome)而非任务,让员工成为自己领域的 CEO(例如“收件箱的 CEO”)。他强调在招聘时必须清晰描述“山顶”(Mountaintop)——即 10 分满分的结果长什么样。此外,他提出每个员工都应有一个“唯一数字”(One Number)来衡量其核心绩效,例如汽车行业的“吸收率”或助理的“响应时间”。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so specifically I want to talk to you about how to lead people the collaboration side most entrepreneurs go on the left side transactional leadership they tell people what to do they check that they got it done and then they they tell them what to do next that sounds pretty straightforward yes or yes yeah

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以我想具体和你们谈谈如何领导人,也就是协作这一面。大多数企业家都站在左边,即交易型领导(transactional leadership)。他们告诉人们做什么,他们检查事情是否做完了,然后他们告诉人们下一步做什么。这听起来很直接,是还是是?是的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: everybody that's I did that for 15 years 15 years of starting companies at 17 till I finally made some money at 28 I mean not 15 but a lot of lot of time I just thought that's how you did it the problem with that is around 10 to 12 direct reports you wake up in the morning with all the pissing vinegar in the world I'm going to dominate the day I've got my list of projects and we're going to have a productive day anybody ever wake up that way you're like I'm going to kill it today yes okay

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 每个人都是那样。我也那样做了 15 年,从 17 岁开始创业直到 28 岁我终于赚到一些钱。我是说可能不是整整 15 年,但很长一段时间我都以为就是那样做的。这样做的问题在于,当你有大约 10 到 12 个直接下属时,你早上醒以此充满了激情和活力,想着“我要主宰这一天,我有我的项目清单,我们要过富有成效的一天”。有没有人那样醒来过?你想着“我今天要把工作干得漂亮”,是的,好。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: the first thing you do is you check your email and there's fire fire fire fire crap then you think oh I wonder if Bob Jade Mary is is working on that right thing so you start calling people on your team you tell hey are you doing this are you doing that did you think of this and then there's like fires and issues and all that stuff and it's not till 7:00 at night that you finally sit down to start doing the work anybody relate with that yeah that's how it works if you have a half dozen people work for you anybody

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 你做的第一件事是检查邮件,然后全是:着火了、着火了、着火了、着火了、烂摊子。然后你想,噢,我想知道鲍勃、杰德、玛丽是不是在做正确的事情。所以你开始给团队里的人打电话,你告诉他们:嘿,你在做这个吗?你在做那个吗?你想到这个了吗?然后就是各种救火和问题之类的事情。直到晚上 7 点,你才终于坐下来开始做你自己的工作。有人对此有共鸣吗?是的,这就是运作方式,如果你有五六个人为你工作。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: body and you tell them what to do check what they got done you tell them what to do next this will become your reality that's why I call it the pain line the opposite of that is transformational leadership okay so I'm going to explain it to you but I want you to think of an example in your life that's tough for you right now and apply this principle to that situation that person

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 如果你告诉他们做什么,检查他们完成了什么,再告诉他们下一步做什么,这将成为你的现实。这就是为什么我称之为“痛苦线”。与之相反的是转型领导力(transformational leadership)。好的,我要向你们解释它,但我希望你们想一个你们生活中目前很棘手的例子,并把这个原则应用到那种情况或那个人身上。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so the first thing when I hire somebody let's say my assistant okay the first day I talked to her about a few principles but the first one is you are the CEO of my inboxing calendar who's the CEO of my inboxing calendar you are my assistant exactly and I I don't mean to be a ding-dong but I will actually ask her to repeat it back who's the CEO I'm the CEO who's the CEO I'm the CEO you're the CEO yay yay what does that mean and I asked them to describe to me what does it mean to be the CEO of my inboxing calendar is it my responsibility to put stuff in my calendar or yours mine yay we're win

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以当我雇佣某人时,比方说我的助理,第一件事,第一天我会和她谈论几个原则,但第一个原则是:你是我的收件箱和日历的 CEO。谁是我的收件箱和日历的 CEO?你,我的助理,没错。我不是想当个傻瓜,但我实际上会让她复述一遍。谁是 CEO?我是 CEO。谁是 CEO?我是 CEO。你是 CEO,耶!耶!那意味着什么?然后我让她们向我描述,成为我收件箱和日历的 CEO 意味着什么。把东西放进我的日历是我的责任还是你的?我的。耶,我们赢了。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: when I hire people I look them in the eyes and I said I hired you to create this outcome I don't tell them what to do I hired you to create this outcome and then I describe the outcome so I got to tell them what does a 10 out of 10 look like my calendar has everything in there it's structured in the description is this everybody's confirmed like my this is what a 10 out of 10 my my travel schedule's figured out all my flights are booked International 6 weeks domestic 2 weeks whatever it is right and I get really clear at describing the Mountaintop

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 当我雇佣人时,我看着他们的眼睛说:我雇佣你是为了创造这个结果(outcome)。我不告诉他们做什么。我雇佣你是为了创造这个结果,然后我描述那个结果。所以我得告诉他们,10 分满分(10 out of 10)是什么样子的。我的日历里有一切东西,描述里结构清晰,每个人都确认了吗?这就是 10 分满分。我的旅行日程安排好了,所有航班都订好了,国际提前 6 周,国内提前 2 周,不管是什么规则,对吧?我会非常清晰地描述山顶(Mountaintop)

[原文] [Dan Martell]: that's the way I think about it some of us hire people and we don't think about telling them what it's going to look like at the Mountaintop right we just say hey can you start climbing this mountain they're like okay where's where's the path you're like I don't know it's over there it's in the corner and they go over this way they call you the next morning I couldn't find that path yesterday I'm like what are you doing no you say that's the mountain top see it right there that's Mountain Top you figure out how to get there what resources would you need

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 这就是我的思考方式。我们有些人雇佣人,却不想着告诉他们山顶是什么样子的,对吧?我们只是说:嘿,你能开始爬这座山吗?他们会问:好吧,路在哪里?你说:我不知道,就在那边,在角落里。然后他们走那边,第二天早上给你打电话说:我昨天找不到那条路。我就想:你在搞什么?不,你要说:那就是山顶,看到那里了吗?那就是山顶。你自己想办法怎么去那里。你需要什么资源?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so then we measure okay so then I explained to the person I hired I gave them the outcome I said here's how we're going to measure your progress every person in all my companies have a number my social media person has a number my CFO has a number my Coos have a number my CEO have a number they have one number how many numbers one number now do they use other numbers to understand if they're making good decisions yes but there's one number that we've all agreed on

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 然后我们进行衡量,好的。所以我向我雇佣的人解释,我给了他们结果,我说这就是我们要如何衡量你的进度。我在所有公司的每个人都有一个数字。我的社交媒体人员有一个数字,我的 CFO 有一个数字,我的 COO 们有一个数字,我的 CEO 有一个数字。他们有一个数字(one number)。多少个数字?一个数字。现在,他们会用其他数字来了解他们是否在做出正确的决定吗?是的,但有一个数字是我们所有人都达成共识的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: if you're in the automotive space the number is called the absorption absorption rate... it's the number that tells you the ratio of of the service department and parts covering the overhead of the the car dealership... if I'm in the hotel space it's the uh the average night of a room you know booking right that tells me how efficient the hotel is so once I tell my assistant the the way I'm going to measure them okay which is response time that's the number how quick do you respond to people

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 如果你在汽车行业,这个数字叫做吸收率(absorption rate)……这个数字告诉你服务部门和零部件部门覆盖汽车经销商管理费用的比例……如果我在酒店行业,那就是客房平均入住晚数,你知道,预订情况,对吧?那告诉我酒店有多高效。所以一旦我告诉我助理我要如何衡量他们,好的,也就是响应时间(response time),那就是那个数字,你回复别人有多快。


请告诉我是否继续输出第6章,我们将深入探讨当员工未达标时,如何通过原则、故事与承诺(Principle, Story, Takeaway)进行高效辅导。

这是第6章的内容。本章深入探讨了当团队成员未达标或犯错时,管理者应如何进行有效的辅导。Dan 提出了一套充满同理心且高效的沟通框架,通过分享个人经验而非单纯指责,来帮助员工成长。

章节 6:辅导的艺术:原则、故事与承诺

📝 本节摘要

Dan 揭示了他处理员工问题的具体流程:他不当场发作,而是将问题记录在“Dan 的清单”(Dan's list)中,在每周的一对一会议上集中解决。他提出了一套核心的辅导三步法:首先明确被违反的原则(Principle);接着分享自己当初是如何痛苦地学到这一原则的故事(Story)(以此建立共情而非对立);最后询问员工的收获(Takeaway)并要求其做出承诺。本章以一句强有力的管理格言作结:委派结果,而非任务

[原文] [Dan Martell]: then when I have issues somebody asked me this today what do you do when you have issues with people on your team anybody else run into that issues with people on your team there are humans they're supposed to have issues some of you guys expect people to be robots like I just can we okay some entrepreneurs are expectations for their people are up here can we just pull it down a little bit can we all realize that they have lives that don't revolve around us and that's okay and awesome can we show up with a little bit more empathy 100%

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 然后当我遇到问题时——今天有人问我这个问题——当你和团队成员有摩擦时你会怎么做?还有其他人遇到过这种情况吗?团队成员有问题?他们是人类,他们本来就会有问题的。你们中的一些人期望人们像机器人一样。我就想,我们可以……好吧,有些企业家的期望值在这个高度,我们能不能把它稍微拉低一点?我们能不能意识到他们有自己的生活,而且不是围着我们转的,这没关系,而且很棒。我们能不能表现出多一点同理心?100%。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so what happens is anytime I see something that isn't great I ask I write it down okay on my phone all my direct reports I have a Google doc okay and it says at Agenda it's got all their names and I just write down a bullet once a week for most of my direct reports every two weeks at minimum I sit down with them guess what's the first agenda item in that meeting guess review my list literally the other person's meeting or one-on one's is review Dan's list

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以发生的情况是,任何时候我看到不太好的事情,我会问,我会把它写下来,好吗?在我的手机上。针对我所有的直接下属,我有一个 Google 文档,好吗?上面写着“议程”,有他们所有的名字。我只是写下一个要点。对于大多数直接下属,我每周一次,最少每两周一次,我会和他们坐下来。猜猜那次会议的第一个议程项目是什么?猜猜看?审查我的清单。字面意思,另一个人的会议或一对一会议就是审查 Dan 的清单(Dan's list)

[原文] [Dan Martell]: now here's the kicker though coach the way you coach somebody isn't to tell them what they did wrong and tell them how to do it right which is what most of us do the way I coach is is number one I ask myself what is the principle that was violated what expectation do I have and what is that principle most often times with leaders why you I want to teach you to become a transformational leader is I want to teach you the process of um creating other leaders okay and the way we create other leaders is by coaching them up but most of us have never trained other people or know what a coach does I'm going to give you the three steps

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 现在的关键在于辅导。你辅导某人的方式不是告诉他们做错了什么,然后告诉他们如何做对——这是我们大多数人做的。我辅导的方式是:第一,我问自己,什么原则(principle)被违反了?我有什么期望?那个原则是什么?大多数时候对于领导者来说,为什么我想教你们成为转型领导者,是因为我想教你们创造其他领导者的过程,好吗?我们要通过辅导来创造其他领导者。但我们大多数人从未培训过其他人或不知道教练是做什么的。我要给你们三个步骤。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: first step write this down we go to principle what is the principle they violated okay... in there you'll see I have Northstar principles damn Martell is my name in case you guys are the Northstar principal one of them is that the calendar is a work of art incomplete and always uh optimizing for Revenue that's my calendar okay and that is one of the things that was kind of violated she may not have known I got to coach her up

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 第一步,把这个写下来,我们要找到原则(Principle)。他们违反了什么原则?好吗?……在那里你会看到我有“北极星原则”(Northstar principles)。如果你们在找的话,Dan Martell 是我的名字。北极星原则之一是:日历是一件未完成的艺术品,并且总是为了收入而优化。那是我的日历,好吗?那就是被某种程度上违反的事情之一。她可能不知道,我得辅导她。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so the first thing I said the thing I want to talk about is the fact that my calendar wasn't at 100% the second part to that is a story that's why I always write down examples okay give them a story of when you learn that principle okay so if you let's take something simple people have to show up on time that does that bug anybody else when people will show up late for meetings perfect okay principle if you're on time you're late does that make sense that's my principle

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以我说的第一件事是:我想谈谈我的日历没有达到 100% 这一事实。第二部分故事(Story)。这就是为什么我总是写下例子,好吗?给他们讲一个你何时学到那个原则的故事。好,所以如果你——让我们举个简单的例子——人们必须准时出现。这会困扰其他人吗?当人们开会迟到时?很好。好的,原则:如果你准时,你就是迟到了。 这有道理吗?那是我的原则。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: I learned this the hard way I had a client I was supposed to meet them I didn't show up on time and as soon as I showed up they said you missed the deal I'm going with your vendor nobody's late for meetings ever again and I embarrassed myself you tell your personal story okay you can do a two-minute story you can do a 10-minute story so depending on the executive I might tell a 10-minute story to really make it land

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我是通过惨痛的教训学到这一点的。我有一个客户,我本该去见他们,我没有准时出现。我一出现,他们就说:你错过了这笔交易,我要选你的供应商了。再也没有人开会迟到了。我让自己很难堪。你要讲你个人的故事,好吗?你可以讲一个两分钟的故事,也可以讲一个十分钟的故事。取决于那位高管是谁,我可能会讲一个十分钟的故事来真正让它落地。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and at the end this is the third part so first part is principal second part is story third part is takeaway I'll ask them what did you take away from that story what did you learn and they'll say to me in that example if I'm not 3 minutes early I'm late that's awesome then commitment will you make a commitment that in the future it'll always be on time yes

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 最后是第三部分。所以第一部分是原则,第二部分是故事,第三部分是收获(Takeaway)。我会问他们:你从那个故事中学到了什么?你学到了什么?在那个例子中,他们会对我说:如果我不提前 3 分钟到,我就是迟到了。这太棒了。然后是承诺(Commitment):你会做出承诺,在未来总是准时吗?是的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: if I did that with somebody what's the probability that you think they're going to be late in the future low because they understand that it comes from my heart and that I learned this the hard way and I don't want to have you learn this right now... here's my big belief delegate the outcome not the task write it down delegate the outcome not the task stop telling people what to do start telling people where we're going and let them figure out how to get there and Coach them along the process

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 如果我对某人那样做了,你认为他们未来迟到的概率有多大?很低。因为他们明白这是发自我的内心,是我经历了惨痛教训才学到的,我不希望你现在也去经历这个……这是我的坚定信念:委派结果,而非任务(delegate the outcome not the task)。写下来。委派结果,而非任务。停止告诉人们做什么,开始告诉人们我们要去哪里,让他们自己想办法到达那里,并在这个过程中辅导他们。


请告诉我是否继续输出第7章,我们将深入探讨解决员工依赖问题、释放 CEO 时间的终极沟通法则:1-3-1 法则(The 1-3-1 Rule)

这是第7章的内容。本章通过 Dan 标志性的 1-3-1 法则,彻底解决了管理者成为公司瓶颈的痛点。他还分享了一个极具实操性的财务授权策略,帮助团队实现真正的自主决策。

章节 7:1-3-1法则与决策下放:消除瓶颈的终极方案

📝 本节摘要

Dan 介绍了能够终结管理者“救火”生涯的 1-3-1 法则。他通过一个 HR 总监无法完成招聘任务的故事,阐述了“想变富就要变懒,想拥有财富就要变得‘无能’”的反直觉哲理。1-3-1 法则要求员工在汇报问题时,必须提出 1 个具体问题3 个可行选项以及 1 个推荐方案。此外,他还分享了 “50美元解决问题”(50 to fix it) 的授权策略,通过给予不同层级员工不同额度的资金审批权,将决策推向一线,从而实现企业的快速扩张。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: the third and final hot principle is the 131 rule this will absolutely transform your life anybody that has a team of people and you're frustrated that your phone is always blown up and they're always calling you and they're always emailing you and they don't seem to know how to figure anything out I'm going to solve this for the rest of your life do you want to learn how to do that yes or yes

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 第三个也是最后一个热门原则是 1-3-1 法则。这将绝对改变你的生活。如果任何人有一个团队,并且你因为电话总是被打爆、他们总是给你打电话、总是给你发邮件、似乎不知道如何解决任何事情而感到沮丧,我将为你解决这个问题,一劳永逸。你们想学怎么做吗?是还是是?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: awesome here's how it works you know why they call it a bottleneck cuz it's at the top so you think the problems your person on your team I'm telling you it's the person you're looking at when you look in the mirror so you've taught people this and I'm going to teach you how to unte them this okay

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 太棒了,这就是它的运作方式。你知道为什么叫它瓶颈(bottleneck)吗?因为它在瓶子的顶部。所以你以为问题出在你团队的人身上,我告诉你,问题出在你照镜子时看到的那个人的身上。是你教会了人们这样做,现在我要教你如何让他们改掉这个习惯,好吗?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so few years ago I the 131 Rule and I'll tell you how it works is culture in all my companies like you won't meet anybody at any area of the business that doesn't understand what it is because we use it as language and I remember I had this uh director of HR this recruiter on the team and he he messages me he's like hey we got a problem I was like what's going on dude he goes we need to hire a a 12 people in the next 30 days I go yeah he goes well I don't know how to do that

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 几年前,我提出了 1-3-1 法则。我告诉你们它是如何运作的,这是我所有公司的文化。你在业务的任何领域遇到的任何人都明白它是什么,因为我们把它当作一种语言来使用。记得我有一个 HR 总监,团队里的招聘人员,他给我发信息说:嘿,我们有个问题。我说:怎么了伙计?他说:我们需要在接下来的 30 天内雇佣 12 个人。我说:是啊。他说:但我不知道该怎么做。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: wow well what do you think I should do oh I don't know well I've never done it I said I said Adam I mean I hired you the director of HR I hired you to do that job I I don't know how to do that job out of both of us who do you think should learn how to do that job and he's like well I mean do you have any ideas and I said what's your 131 and he goes oh man I don't know like I don't have time for this and I said I I don't I don't know how to help you

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 哇,那你觉得我该怎么做?噢,我不知道,我没做过。我说:亚当,我雇佣你是 HR 总监,我雇佣你是来做那份工作的。我不知道怎么做那份工作。在我们两人之中,你觉得谁应该学会做那份工作?他说:嗯,我是说你有任何主意吗?我说:你的 1-3-1 是什么? 他说:噢天哪,我不知道,我没时间搞这个。我说:我不……我不知道怎么帮你。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: okay write this down if you want to be rich be lazy if you want to be wealthy be incompetent okay if you want to be rich be lazy if you want to be wealthy be incompetent I said Adam I didn't hire you to tell you how to do your job I hired you to tell me me what to do does that make sense Steve Jobs said this he said it's easy to hire other people tell them what to do it's hard to hire people and have them tell you what to do

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 好的,把这个写下来:如果你想变富,就要变懒;如果你想拥有财富,就要变得“无能”。 好吗?如果你想变富,就要变懒;如果你想拥有财富,就要变得“无能”。我说:亚当,我雇你不是为了告诉你怎么做你的工作,我雇你是为了让你告诉我该做什么。这有道理吗?史蒂夫·乔布斯说过这话,他说:雇佣别人并告诉他们做什么很容易,但雇佣人并让他们告诉你做什么很难。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so I said what's your 131 he said I don't know I said how long will it take to figure out he goes give me give me a day so how about the same time tomorrow we meet up and we review goes that sounds great it was like 4:00 that day next morning 10: a.m. he texts me I'm good duh like and I'll I'll share with you why here's how the framework works one specific challenge when somebody comes to you with problems okay

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以我说:你的 1-3-1 是什么?他说:我不知道。我说:要多久能弄明白?他说:给我一天。那明天同一时间我们见面复盘怎么样?听起来不错。那天大概是下午 4 点。第二天早上 10 点,他发短信给我:我搞定了。废话。我会和你们分享为什么。这就是那个框架的运作方式:一个具体的挑战(One specific challenge)。当有人带着问题来找你时,好吗?

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and I love you women but you're the worst you guys I love okay I love you most of my team are executive are women but you guys come to me with a hurricane of stuff it's like a tornado I love it it's creative and then but I'm like what are we talking about and they're like this is wrong and this is wrong I'm like one thing at a time so one specific problem what are your three viable options that you've considered I want to hear them tell me how you research them and then give me your one specific recommendation

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我爱你们女性,但在这方面你们最糟糕,我爱你们,好吗?我爱你们,我的大部分高管团队都是女性。但你们带着像飓风一样的东西来找我,就像龙卷风。我喜欢它,很有创意。但我会问:我们在谈论什么?她们说:这个错了,那个也错了。我说:一次一件事。所以,一个具体的问题。你考虑过的三个可行的选项(Three viable options)是什么?我想听听。告诉我你是如何研究它们的。然后给我你的一个具体推荐(One specific recommendation)

[原文] [Dan Martell]: if you teach everybody in your team the 131 rules I'll tell you what will happen one you'll start having your front uh Frontline people solve problems that never make it up to your attention okay you will teach people this is another big idea that we teach people how to treat us okay we teach people how to treat us so if we teach people every time they have a problem they come to us guess what they're going to do when they have a problem come to us so that's why it's a bottleneck cuz it's at the top cuz you taught them how to do this

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 如果你教你团队里的每个人 1-3-1 法则,我告诉你会发生什么。第一,你的一线员工将开始解决那些永远不需要你注意的问题。你要教会人们——这是另一个大理念——我们教会别人如何对待我们,好吗?我们教会别人如何对待我们。如果我们教导人们每次有问题就来找我们,猜猜他们有问题时会怎么做?来找我们。所以这就是为什么它是瓶颈,因为它在顶部,因为是你教他们这样做的。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: this is how we fix it so 98% of the time somebody comes to me with 131 they recommendation is what we should do and over time they build their confidence and I push down all the big decision making to the front line okay and I've got time I'm going to give you guys you guys want to know the ultimate hack this is this is like the I don't sh share this often Frontline workers I give them a $50 budget to fix any problem they see as and all they have to do is tell me about it after it's called 50 to fix it

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 这就是我们修复它的方法。所以 98% 的时间里,当有人带着 1-3-1 来找我时,他们的推荐就是我们应该做的。随着时间的推移,他们建立了自信,而我把所有重大的决策都推到了一线。好吗?我有时间,我要给你们……你们想知道终极黑客技巧吗?我不经常分享这个。一线员工,我给他们 50 美元的预算去解决他们看到的任何问题,他们唯一要做的就是在事后告诉我。这叫做“50 美元解决它”(50 to fix it)

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so anybody in my company at the front line they can solve any problem they see if it's less than $50 without getting anybody permission the Only Rule is they have to tell their leader within the next seven days okay so they can spend their credit card expense it it's always approved they get to tell their leader next 7even days so they can coach against it leaders managers it's $500 directors it's $5,000 and for my executive leadership team my CEOs my C my Coos is $50,000

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以我公司前线的任何人,如果问题小于 50 美元,他们可以解决他们看到的任何问题,无需获得任何人的许可。唯一的规则是他们必须在接下来的 7 天内告诉他们的领导,好吗?所以他们可以刷信用卡报销,总是会被批准的。他们在 7 天内告诉领导,这样领导可以针对此事进行辅导。对于领导和经理,额度是 500 美元;总监是 5,000 美元;而对于我的执行领导团队,我的 CEO、我的 COO 们,是 50,000 美元

[原文] [Dan Martell]: what did I just do I just created a framework to push decisions and issue problem solving down to the front line so we can move faster I'm all about leverage all about speed all about growth most of you guys are walking over dollars to save pennies it's hilarious let your people solve the problem and then Coach them up that's how we unlock the 131 rule in a more tactical level so here's my philosophy this is how we scale companies doesn't matter if you're a company of one or two we build the people the people build the business we build the person the person builds a business we build a team the team builds a business

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我刚刚做了什么?我刚刚创建了一个框架,将决策和问题解决推向一线,这样我们就可以行动得更快。我只在乎杠杆,只在乎速度,只在乎增长。你们大多数人都在为了省几分钱而错过几美元,这很可笑。让你的人去解决问题,然后辅导他们。这就是我们在战术层面上解锁 1-3-1 法则的方式。所以这是我的哲学,这就是我们扩张公司的方式,无论你是只有一两个人的公司都不重要:我们建设人,人建设生意(We build the people, the people build the business)。我们建设那个人,那个人建设生意;我们建设团队,团队建设生意。


请告诉我是否继续输出第8章(全书大结局),Dan 将在最后一段升华主题,探讨企业家的终极使命。

这是第8章,也是全书的大结局。在这一章中,Dan 从具体的管理战术(如 1-3-1 法则)升华为一种深刻的人生哲学。他总结了企业扩张的本质是“造人”,并深情地分享了他作为企业家的终极使命与精神内核。

章节 8:终极使命:成为你曾经最需要的那个人

📝 本节摘要

在演讲的最后,Dan 总结了他的核心哲学:企业扩张的本质不是建设生意,而是建设团队——“我们造就人,人造就生意”。他介绍了自己的书《回购你的时间》(Buy Back Your Time),并表达了他致力于消除“企业家痛恨自己建立的生意”这一现象的愿景。最后,他提出了人生中最重要的两件事:第一,成为你在最黑暗的日子里最需要的那个人;第二,将那个人分享给世界。这不仅是商业成功的秘诀,更是通往极致充实人生的路径。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so here's my philosophy this is how we scale companies doesn't matter if you're a company of one or two we build the people the people build the business we build the person the person builds a business we build a team the team builds a business when you shift your lens on your role in the company as a people Builder it will unlock massive growth okay this is how I do it

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以这是我的哲学,这就是我们扩张公司的方式,无论你是只有一两个人的公司都不重要:我们建设人,人建设生意(We build the people, the people build the business)。我们建设那个人,那个人建设生意;我们建设团队,团队建设生意。当你转变视角,把你在这个公司的角色看作是一个“建设者”(people Builder)时,它将解锁巨大的增长。好吗?这就是我做的方式。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: so with that this is my book buy back your time bestselling book continue to sell more copies every week here's the movement I'm trying to create I want to rid the world of companies failing because the CEO builds a business they grow to hate does that make sense I think most businesses get built to a place where the entrepreneur grows to hate it and then they want to do something else I want to get rid of that as being the reason the companies fail

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 所以说到这里,这是我的书《回购你的时间》(Buy Back Your Time),这本畅销书每周都在卖出更多副本。这就是我试图发起的运动:我想让世界上不再有公司因为 CEO 逐渐讨厌自己建立的生意而倒闭。 这有道理吗?我认为大多数生意建立到某个阶段,企业家开始讨厌它,然后他们想做别的事情。我想消除这一点,不让它成为公司倒闭的原因。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and I want to end with this big idea for every person in the world for human for entrepreneurs for sure but everybody I think we're all here to not only buy back our time to grow our business and we do that through the strategies I tell you with the buyback Loop and the 131 and the transformational leadership that's all awesome that will create resources and wealth for you fun,

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我想用这个大理念来结束,这是给世界上每个人的,给全人类的,当然也是给企业家的,是给每个人的。我认为我们在这里不仅仅是为了回购我们的时间来增长我们的生意——也就是通过我告诉你们的那些策略,回购循环、1-3-1 法则和转型领导力——那些都很棒,那会为你创造资源、财富和乐趣。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: I think we're here to do two things one become the person we needed most in our darkest days become the person you needed most in your darkest days every day you wake up and try to create that person that would have had the opportunity to speak to that kid for me to have the character and the resourcefulness to talk to the 15-year-old version of Dan

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 我认为我们在这里是为了做两件事。第一,成为我们在最黑暗的日子里最需要的那个人。 成为你在最黑暗的日子里最需要的那个人。每天你醒来,试着去创造那个人,那个有机会和那个孩子对话的人。对我来说,就是拥有那样的品格和机智,去和 15 岁版本的 Dan 对话。

[原文] [Dan Martell]: and then well while you're doing that every day this is the second part is share that person with the world give that person to the world and your world may be your kids your world may be your community your church your CrossFit gym I don't care if maybe social media and I think that would be the best place because I think that if you wake up every day to become that person and share that person that you will create a life of fulfillment that you can't even imagine to feel so with that everybody thanks for having me you guys are awesome than you thank you,

[译文] [Dan Martell]: 然后,当你每天都在这样做的时候,第二部分就是与世界分享那个人。把那个人献给世界。你的世界可能是你的孩子,你的世界可能是你的社区、你的教堂、你的混合健身房(CrossFit gym),我不在乎,也许是社交媒体。我认为那会是最好的地方,因为我认为如果你每天醒来去成为那个人,并分享那个人,你将创造一种你甚至无法想象的充实生活(life of fulfillment)。所以,谢谢大家邀请我,你们太棒了,谢谢你们,谢谢。

3.战术落地:遵循“替代阶梯”有序招聘,利用 1-3-1 法则下放决策。
4.思维升维:从交易型管理转向转型领导力,最终实现“造人”与“自我超越”的终极使命。
