现代工作 — 从带位到处理数据再到设计新产品 — 就是每天都在用灵活、崭新的方式来解决新的问题。但是 Yves Morieux 在这个富有洞察力的演讲中向我们展示，过多的程序和签核和内部衡量阻碍了我们发挥自己的最佳水平。他为我们提供了一个思考工作的新方式 — 合作，而不是竞争。

诺贝尔经济学奖[得主]，
保罗克·鲁格曼，曾经说过：
保罗克·鲁格曼，曾经说过：

”生产力不能代表一切，
但长期来看，

它差不多就是一切。“
00:28
So this is serious.
3
16062
1406
这是个严肃的问题。
00:30
There are not that many things on earth
that are "almost everything."
that are "almost everything."

世界上没有什么东西能
“几乎代表一切。”
“几乎代表一切。”
00:36
Productivity is the principal driver
of the prosperity of a society.

生产力是社会繁荣的主要推动力。
00:43
So we have a problem.

1555
那么我们面临着一个问题。
00:45
In the largest European economies,

在欧洲最大的经济体当中，
00:48
productivity used to grow
five percent per annum

曾经保持着每年5%的增长速度。
00:54

日本也是如此。
01:10
The same profile in the US,
14
58115
2870
美国亦是如此，
01:13
despite a momentary rebound 15 years ago,

即便15年前出现了一次短暂的经济复苏，
01:18
and despite all
the technological innovations

16

3364
虽然我们身边的科技日新月异：
01:21
around us: the Internet, the information,
17
69754
2579
例如互联网，信息技术，
01:24
the new information
and communication technologies.

新信息技术和通讯技术的发展。
01:28
When productivity grows
three percent per annum,
three percent per annum,
19
76155
4579
生产力年化增长率为3%时，
01:32
you double the standard of living
every generation.

20
80758
3642
生活水平每个年代会翻一番。
01:37
Every generation is twice
as well-off as its parents'.
as well-off as its parents'.
21
85169
5009
每一代人享受到的福利
是其父母那代的两倍。
是其父母那代的两倍。
01:42
When it grows one percent per annum,
22

当增长率仅为1%时，
01:46
it takes three generations
to double the standard of living.
to double the standard of living.
23
94036

需要3代的时间才能使生活水平翻一番。
01:49
And in this process, many people
will be less well-off than their parents.
will be less well-off than their parents.
24
97687
5794
在这一进程中，许多人
会过得还不如他们的父母。
会过得还不如他们的父母。
01:55
They will have less of everything:
25
103505
2514
他们的一切都更差些：
01:58
smaller roofs, or perhaps no roof at all,
26
106043
3491
房子更小了，或者根本没房子，
02:02
less access to education, to vitamins,
to antibiotics, to vaccination --
to antibiotics, to vaccination --
27
110645

受教育机会更少，获取维生素、
抗生素、疫苗的机会也更少 --
抗生素、疫苗的机会也更少 --
02:09
to everything.
28
117068
1275
一切机会都更少。
02:11
Think of all the problems
that we're facing at the moment.
that we're facing at the moment.
29
119502
5861
考虑下我们当前所面临的所有问题。
02:18
All.
30
126347
1162
所有问题。
02:20
Chances are that they are rooted
in the productivity crisis.
in the productivity crisis.
31
128692
4439
我们的问题有可能是
扎根于生产力危机之上的。
扎根于生产力危机之上的。
02:27
Why this crisis?
32
135226
1681
为什么说这个危机是根源呢？
02:30
Because the basic tenets
about efficiency --
about efficiency --
33
138438
5475
因为效率的基本原理 --
02:35
effectiveness in organizations,
in management --
in management --
34
143937
4811
组织、管理的效率 --
02:40
have become counterproductive
for human efforts.
for human efforts.
35
148772
4251
往往会使人们的努力适得其反。
02:45
Everywhere in public services --
in companies, in the way we work,
in companies, in the way we work,
36
153539
4166
在公共事业的任何地方 --
在公司当中、我们的工作方式里、
在公司当中、我们的工作方式里、
02:49
the way we innovate, invest --
try to learn to work better.
try to learn to work better.
37
157729
4336
我们的创新、投资方式上 --
都在努力提高效率。
都在努力提高效率。
02:54
Take the holy trinity of efficiency:
38
162954
4486
效率的三位一体是指：
03:00
clarity, measurement, accountability.
39
168805
5912
透明度、衡量和问责制。
03:07
They make human efforts derail.
40
175870
2597
它们使人们的努力白费。
03:11
There are two ways
to look at it, to prove it.
to look at it, to prove it.
41
179650
4072
有两个方式来看待、证明这点。
03:15
One, the one I prefer,
42
183746
2666
第一，也是我偏向的一种，
03:18
is rigorous, elegant, nice -- math.
43
186436
5545
是严谨，典雅，美观大方的数学。
03:24
But the full math version
takes a little while,
takes a little while,
44
192593
3263
但完整的数学评估方案
需要一点时间，
需要一点时间，
03:27
so there is another one.
45
195880
1795
因此又有了另一种方式。
03:29
It is to look at a relay race.
46
197699
2466
就是通过接力赛跑来看。
03:32
This is what we will do today.
47
200697
1668
也是我们今天要用到的。
03:34
It's a bit more animated, more visual
and also faster -- it's a race.
and also faster -- it's a race.
48
202389
6350
这样会更生动、更直观
也更快 -- 这是短跑比赛嘛。
也更快 -- 这是短跑比赛嘛。
03:41
Hopefully, it's faster.
49
209572
1294
当然，我们希望它更便捷。
03:42
(Laughter)
50
210890
1364
（笑声）
03:44
World championship final -- women.
51
212278
4958
世界杯决赛 -- 女子项目。
03:49
Eight teams in the final.
52
217260
2111
决赛共有八队。
03:51
The fastest team is the US team.
53
219395
2805
最快的是美国队。
03:55
They have the fastest women on earth.
54
223129
2667
美国有全世界最快的女运动员。
03:58
They are the favorite team to win.
55
226153
2775
她们是夺冠热门。
04:00
Notably, if you compare them
to an average team,
to an average team,
56
228952
4190
显然，如果你把她们
和一般的队伍比较，
和一般的队伍比较，
04:05
say, the French team,
57
233166
1374
比如说，法国队吧，
04:06
(Laughter)
58
234564
1587
（笑声）
04:08
based on their best performances
in the 100-meter race,
in the 100-meter race,
59
236175
5195
按照她们在100米短跑当中的最佳成绩，
04:13
if you add the individual times
of the US runners,
of the US runners,
60
241394
5769
把美国选手个人的成绩相加起来，
04:19
they arrive at the finish line
3.2 meters ahead of the French team.
3.2 meters ahead of the French team.
61
247187
6912
最后她们会在达终点线时
比法国队领先3.2米。
比法国队领先3.2米。
04:26
And this year, the US team
is in great shape.
is in great shape.
62
254438
3024
今年，美国队状态很好。
04:30
Based on their best performance this year,
63
258034
2386
根据她们今年的最好成绩，
04:32
they arrive 6.4 meters
ahead of the French team,
ahead of the French team,
64
260444
4905
她们在到达终点时
应该要领先法国队6.4米，
应该要领先法国队6.4米，
04:37
based on the data.
65
265373
1365
这是根据数据推算的。
04:39
We are going to look at the race.
66
267274
1579
那我们来看一下比赛。
04:40
At some point you will see,
towards the end,
towards the end,
67
268877
2423
从某个角度来看，快到终点时，
04:43
that Torri Edwards,
the fourth US runner, is ahead.
the fourth US runner, is ahead.
68
271324
6306
Torri Edwards，美国队第四棒，暂时领先。
04:49
Not surprising -- this year she got
the gold medal in the 100-meter race.
the gold medal in the 100-meter race.
69
277654
6489
毫不意外地 -- 今年
她在100米赛跑中获得了金牌。
她在100米赛跑中获得了金牌。
04:56
And by the way, Chryste Gaines,
the second runner in the US team,
the second runner in the US team,
70
284167
4942
顺便说下，Chryste Gaines，
美国队第二棒，
美国队第二棒，
05:01
is the fastest woman on earth.
71
289133
2637
是地球上跑得最快的女性。
05:03
So, there are 3.5 billion women on earth.
72
291794
5153
那么，全世界有35亿女性。
05:09
Where are the two fastest? On the US team.
73
297890
3173
最快的两个在哪里？
答案在美国队。
答案在美国队。
05:13
And the two other runners
on the US team are not bad, either.
on the US team are not bad, either.
74
301087
3273
美国队的另外两名选手也不赖。
05:16
(Laughter)
75
304384
1716
（笑声）
05:18
So clearly, the US team has won
the war for talent.
the war for talent.
76
306124
4671
显然，美国队赢得了人才争夺战。
05:24
But behind, the average team
is trying to catch up.
is trying to catch up.
77
312391
3981
不过在其背后，
普通的队伍也在奋力追赶。
普通的队伍也在奋力追赶。
05:28
Let's watch the race.
78
316396
1349
我们来看下比赛。
05:30
(Video: French sportscasters narrate race)
79
318300
5025
（视频：法国体育节目比赛解说）
06:18
(Video: Race narration ends)
80
366886
2000
（视频：比赛讲解结束）
06:22
Yves Morieux: So what happened?
81
370112
1495
所以视频里发生了什么？
06:23
The fastest team did not win;
the slower one did.
the slower one did.
82
371631
4411
最快的队伍没有赢；
慢的那一队反而赢了。
慢的那一队反而赢了。
06:28
By the way, I hope you appreciate
83
376809
1937
顺便说下，我希望你们能认可
06:30
the deep historical research I did
to make the French look good.
to make the French look good.
84
378770
5926
我做了非常深入的历史研究
来使法国看起来很好。
来使法国看起来很好。
06:36
(Laughter)
85
384720
2295
（笑声）
06:41
But let's not exaggerate --
it's not archeology, either.
it's not archeology, either.
86
389485
4419
但我们不要这么夸张 --
这也不是考古学
这也不是考古学
06:45
(Laughter)
87
393928
1981
（笑声）
06:47
But why?
88
395933
1166
但是为什么呢？
06:49
Because of cooperation.
89
397123
1540
因为合作。
06:50
When you hear this sentence:
90
398687
1834
当你听到这句话：
06:52
"Thanks to cooperation, the whole
is worth more than the sum of the parts."
is worth more than the sum of the parts."
91
400545
4401
“多亏了合作，整体大于部分之和。”
06:57
This is not poetry;
this is not philosophy.
this is not philosophy.
92
405707
3315
这不是诗歌；
这不是哲学。
这不是哲学。
07:01
This is math.
93
409046
1515
这是数学。
07:03
Those who carry the baton are slower,
94
411196
3280
握着接力棒的人跑得慢了点，
07:06
but their baton is faster.
95
414500
1697
但她们交接棒更快。
07:08
Miracle of cooperation:
96
416848
1635
合作的奇迹：
07:11
it multiplies energy,
intelligence in human efforts.
intelligence in human efforts.
97
419057
5280
它能让人们努力的能量和智慧加倍。
07:16
It is the essence of human efforts:
98
424361
2975
这是人们努力的精髓：
07:19
how we work together, how each effort
contributes to the efforts of others.
contributes to the efforts of others.
99
427360
5816
我们如何合作，
个人的成果如何为团队做贡献。
个人的成果如何为团队做贡献。
07:26
With cooperation,
we can do more with less.
we can do more with less.
100
434017
3248
通过合作，
我们可以事半功倍。
我们可以事半功倍。
07:29
Now, what happens to cooperation
when the holy grail --
when the holy grail --
101
437788
5548
那么，当目标 -- 包含了 --
07:35
the holy trinity, even --
102
443360
2438
清晰度、衡量、问责的圣神三位一体 --
07:37
of clarity, measurement, accountability --
103
445822
6221
出现时，会对合作产生
07:44
appears?
104
452067
1169
什么影响？
07:46
Clarity.
105
454952
1152
清晰度。
07:48
Management reports are full of complaints
about the lack of clarity.
about the lack of clarity.
106
456128
4581
管理报告充满了对缺乏清晰度的抱怨。
07:53
Compliance audits,
consultants' diagnostics.
consultants' diagnostics.
107
461424
3717
合规性审核、咨询诊断。
07:58
We need more clarity, we need
to clarify the roles, the processes.
to clarify the roles, the processes.
108
466490
4532
我们需要更高的清晰度，
我们要明确角色分担和过程。
我们要明确角色分担和过程。
08:04
It is as though the runners
on the team were saying,
on the team were saying,
109
472092
4016
就好比说队伍里的选手说，
08:08
"Let's be clear -- where does my role
really start and end?
really start and end?
110
476132
5948
“我们明确下吧 --
我从哪里跑到哪里？
我从哪里跑到哪里？
08:14
Am I supposed to run for 95 meters,
96, 97...?"
96, 97...?"
111
482938
4832
我要跑95米，
还是96、97米...？”
还是96、97米...？”
08:19
It's important, let's be clear.
112
487794
1790
这很重要，我们要分清楚。
08:22
If you say 97, after 97 meters,
113
490885
3006
如果你说97米的话，
那么跑完97米，
那么跑完97米，
08:25
people will drop the baton, whether
there is someone to take it or not.
there is someone to take it or not.
114
493915
3532
人们就会把交接棒丢掉，
可不管到时候有没有人接。
可不管到时候有没有人接。
08:31
Accountability.
115
499145
1222
问责制。
08:33
We are constantly trying
to put accountability
to put accountability
116
501084
3450
我们总是试图把责任
08:36
in someone's hands.
117
504558
1573
规定给某个人。
08:38
Who is accountable for this process?
118
506559
2573
谁对这个过程负责？
08:41
We need somebody accountable
for this process.
for this process.
119
509156
3121
我们需要一个人对这个过程负责。
08:44
So in the relay race,
since passing the baton is so important,
since passing the baton is so important,
120
512634
4461
所以在接力赛中，
既然交接棒如此之重要，
既然交接棒如此之重要，
08:49
then we need somebody
clearly accountable for passing the baton.
clearly accountable for passing the baton.
121
517119
3747
那么我们需要非常明确
负责交接棒的人是谁。
负责交接棒的人是谁。
08:53
So between each runner,
122
521786
2179
在两个选手中间，
08:55
now we will have a new dedicated athlete,
123
523989
4724
我们现在要规定一个新的专门的运动员，
09:00
clearly dedicated to taking
the baton from one runner,
the baton from one runner,
124
528737
4545
这个运动员要非常明确地专注于
接过上一个选手的交接棒，
接过上一个选手的交接棒，
09:05
and passing it to the next runner.
125
533306
2296
然后再交接给下一个选手。
09:08
And we will have at least two like that.
126
536284
2509
而且我们至少需要两个这样的选手。
09:12
Well, will we, in that case, win the race?
127
540381
6460
那么，我们，这样以来，会赢得比赛吗？
09:19
That I don't know, but for sure,
128
547903
2001
这个我就不知道了，
但是可以肯定的是，
但是可以肯定的是，
09:21
we would have a clear interface,
129
549928
3270
我们有一个明确的分工，
09:25
a clear line of accountability.
130
553222
2644
对责任有了非常明确的划分界线。
09:27
We will know who to blame.
131
555890
1928
我们会知道由谁来承担过错。
09:30
But we'll never win the race.
132
558834
2241
但我们不会赢得比赛。
09:33
If you think about it,
we pay more attention
we pay more attention
133
561099
4987
如果你仔细想想，
会发现我们在失败时把更多精力
会发现我们在失败时把更多精力
09:38
to knowing who to blame in case we fail,
134
566110
4155
集中在确定谁来负责的问题上，
09:42
than to creating
the conditions to succeed.
the conditions to succeed.
135
570289
3721
而不是去创造有利于成功的条件。
09:47
All the human intelligence
put in organization design --
put in organization design --
136
575384
3363
把所有的人类智慧
都投入到组织设计当中 --
都投入到组织设计当中 --
09:50
urban structures, processing systems --
137
578771
2785
城市结构、处理系统 --
09:53
what is the real goal?
138
581580
1624
真正的目的是什么？
09:56
To have somebody guilty in case they fail.
139
584347
2930
目的是在失败的时候
把责任归咎于某人。
把责任归咎于某人。
10:00
We are creating
organizations able to fail,
organizations able to fail,
140
588499
4887
我们创造了会失败的组织，
10:05
but in a compliant way,
141
593410
2977
但是以一种合规的方式来创造的，
10:08
with somebody clearly
accountable when we fail.
accountable when we fail.
142
596411
3442
在这种组织中，
有明确的人来为失败负责。
有明确的人来为失败负责。
10:11
And we are quite effective
at that -- failing.
at that -- failing.
143
599877
3824
在失败这点上，
人们做的相当有效率。
人们做的相当有效率。
10:16
Measurement.
144
604892
1161
衡量。
10:18
What gets measured gets done.
145
606674
1428
东西衡量好了，
事情也就完成了。
事情也就完成了。
10:20
Look, to pass the baton,
you have to do it at the right time,
you have to do it at the right time,
146
608126
4391
你看，要传递交接棒，
你要在对的时间、
你要在对的时间、
10:24
in the right hand, at the right speed.
147
612541
2475
用对的手、以正确的速度来传递。
10:27
But to do that, you have to put
energy in your arm.
energy in your arm.
148
615457
2559
但要这么做的话，
你要把能量分配到你的手臂里。
你要把能量分配到你的手臂里。
10:30
This energy that is in your arm
will not be in your legs.
will not be in your legs.
149
618040
2991
你手臂中的能量不在你的腿里。
10:33
It will come at the expense
of your measurable speed.
of your measurable speed.
150
621491
2979
你必须牺牲掉可被衡量的速度。
10:37
You have to shout early enough
to the next runner
to the next runner
151
625367
3453
你将要交接的时候要及早喊出声，
10:40
when you will pass the baton,
to signal that you are arriving,
to signal that you are arriving,
152
628844
3311
发出信号说明你快到了，
10:44
so that the next runner
can prepare, can anticipate.
can prepare, can anticipate.
153
632179
3205
以便让下一位选手最好准备、有所预备。
10:47
And you have to shout loud.
154
635408
2163
而且你要喊得够大声。
10:50
But the blood, the energy
that will be in your throat
that will be in your throat
155
638182
3973
但是这时血液、能量会集中在你的喉咙里，
10:54
will not be in your legs.
156
642179
1400
而不是你的腿里。
10:55
Because you know, there are
eight people shouting at the same time.
eight people shouting at the same time.
157
643603
3756
因为你知道，这时候有8个人同时在喊。
10:59
So you have to recognize the voice
of your colleague.
of your colleague.
158
647383
2639
所以你要辨别得出你队友的声音。
11:02
You cannot say, "Is it you?"
159
650372
1753
你可不能说，“是你吗？”
11:04
Too late!
160
652570
1154
这就晚了！
11:05
(Laughter)
161
653748
1206
（笑声）
11:06
Now, let's look at the race
in slow motion,
in slow motion,
162
654978
4976
那么，我们现在看下比赛的慢动作，
11:11
and concentrate on the third runner.
163
659978
2548
大家注意第三棒选手。
11:14
Look at where she allocates her efforts,
164
662550
4423
你看她把力量、能量和注意力
11:18
her energy, her attention.
165
666997
2707
都分配在哪里。
11:22
Not all in her legs -- that would
be great for her own speed --
be great for her own speed --
166
670878
3144
并没有都在腿部 --
虽然这样对她的速度很有利 --
虽然这样对她的速度很有利 --
11:26
but in also in her throat,
arm, eye, brain.
arm, eye, brain.
167
674046
3490
可也分配在了喉咙、
手臂、眼睛、大脑里。
手臂、眼睛、大脑里。
11:29
That makes a difference in whose legs?
168
677560
2346
那么这对哪个选手的腿产生了影响呢？
11:32
In the legs of the next runner.
169
680314
2112
答案是下一个选手的腿。
11:34
But when the next runner runs super-fast,
170
682728
2834
但当下一名选手跑得特别快的时候，
11:37
is it because she made a super effort,
171
685586
2128
这是因为她自己特别使劲跑了呢，
11:39
or because of the way
the third runner passed the baton?
the third runner passed the baton?
172
687738
3237
还是因为前面一名选手的交接棒传得好呢？
11:43
There is no metric on earth
that will give us the answer.
that will give us the answer.
173
691403
3855
这个地球上没有标准来给我们一个答案。
11:48
And if we reward people on the basis
of their measurable performance,
of their measurable performance,
174
696310
4511
如果我们根据可以测量的表现
来对人们进行奖励的话，
来对人们进行奖励的话，
11:52
they will put their energy,
their attention, their blood
their attention, their blood
175
700845
3054
人们就会把自己的能量、注意力和血液
11:55
in what can get measured -- in their legs.
176
703923
2023
集中在能够被测量的部位 -- 就是腿部。
11:58
And the baton will fall and slow down.
177
706581
2246
而这样一来交接棒会滑落然后传递速度会减慢。
12:01
To cooperate is not a super effort,
178
709534
2572
合作不是一股超级力量，
12:04
it is how you allocate your effort.
179
712130
2023
而是对力量的分配。
12:07
It is to take a risk,
180
715280
1840
这意味着冒险，
12:09
because you sacrifice
the ultimate protection
the ultimate protection
181
717144
4230
因为你要牺牲可被客观测量的
12:13
granted by objectively measurable
individual performance.
individual performance.
182
721398
5427
个人表现所能给予你的终极保障。
12:20
It is to make a super difference
in the performance of others,
in the performance of others,
183
728516
3877
这对别人的表现有着重要影响，
12:24
with whom we are compared.
184
732417
1690
而这些人正是和我们相比较的人。
12:26
It takes being stupid to cooperate, then.
185
734757
2334
所以要合作就要当傻子。
12:29
And people are not stupid;
they don't cooperate.
they don't cooperate.
186
737551
2730
但是人们可不是傻子；
所以他们不合作。
所以他们不合作。
12:32
You know, clarity, accountability,
measurement were OK
measurement were OK
187
740738
5140
你知道吗，在比较简单的世界里，
12:37
when the world was simpler.
188
745902
2416
清晰度、问责制、衡量都是可行的。
12:40
But business has become much more complex.
189
748929
3024
但商业已经变得更加复杂了。
12:43
With my teams, we have measured
190
751977
2031
我的团队，我们评估了
12:46
the evolution of complexity in business.
191
754032
3024
商业复杂度的演变。
12:49
It is much more demanding today
to attract and retain customers,
to attract and retain customers,
192
757080
5603
如今要吸引并留住客户，
12:54
to build advantage on a global scale,
193
762707
3311
打造世界级的优势并创造价值，
12:58
to create value.
194
766042
1459
是一件要求严苛的事。
13:00
And the more business gets complex,
195
768691
2757
而商业越是复杂，
13:03
the more, in the name of clarity,
accountability, measurement
accountability, measurement
196
771472
5301
我们就越是会以清晰度、
问责和衡量的名义
问责和衡量的名义
13:08
we multiply structures,
processes, systems.
processes, systems.
197
776797
3664
来让结构、过程
和体制更加复杂繁多。
和体制更加复杂繁多。
13:13
You know, this drive for clarity
and accountability triggers
and accountability triggers
198
781083
4809
要知道，这种对清晰度
和问责的推崇会引发
和问责的推崇会引发
13:17
a counterproductive multiplication
of interfaces, middle offices,
of interfaces, middle offices,
199
785916
5355
一种反生产力的复杂化，
导致出现更多的分界线、中间部门、
导致出现更多的分界线、中间部门、
13:23
coordinators that do not only
mobilize people and resources,
mobilize people and resources,
200
791295
5037
协调者，他们不仅能动员人力和物资，
13:28
but that also add obstacles.
201
796356
2309
但也会增添障碍。
13:31
And the more complicated the organization,
202
799276
4570
组织越是复杂，
13:35
the more difficult it is to understand
what is really happening.
what is really happening.
203
803870
3653
就越难理解究竟发生了什么。
13:39
So we need summaries, proxies, reports,
204
807547
5420
所以我们需要做总结、代理、报告、
13:44
key performance indicators, metrics.
205
812991
3300
关键绩效指标、衡量标准。
13:48
So people put their energy
in what can get measured,
in what can get measured,
206
816315
4712
所以人们都把精力
放在了可以被测量的东西上，
放在了可以被测量的东西上，
13:53
at the expense of cooperation.
207
821051
2095
然后牺牲合作。
13:55
And as performance deteriorates,
208
823170
2532
当表现退步了，
13:57
we add even more structure,
process, systems.
process, systems.
209
825726
3129
我们会增加更多的
结构、过程、体系。
结构、过程、体系。
14:00
People spend their time in meetings,
210
828879
2832
人们会把时间都用来开会、
14:03
writing reports they have
to do, undo and redo.
to do, undo and redo.
211
831735
4126
写报告，写了又改、改了又写。
14:08
Based on our analysis,
teams in these organizations
teams in these organizations
212
836289
3422
根据我们的分析数据显示，
14:11
spend between 40 and 80 percent
of their time wasting their time,
of their time wasting their time,
213
839735
6171
这些机构的团队会把40%
到80%的时间用来浪费时间，
到80%的时间用来浪费时间，
14:17
but working harder and harder,
longer and longer,
longer and longer,
214
845930
3993
他们越做越辛苦，越做越耗时，
14:21
on less and less value-adding activities.
215
849947
2943
而增值活动却越来越少。
14:26
This is what is killing productivity,
216
854242
2310
这才是泯灭生产力的罪魁祸首，
14:28
what makes people suffer at work.
217
856576
2198
这才是让人们工作痛苦的原因。
14:31
Our organizations are wasting
human intelligence.
human intelligence.
218
859226
4537
我们的组织在浪费人类智慧。
14:35
They have turned against human efforts.
219
863787
3648
它们和人类的努力背道而驰。
14:40
When people don't cooperate,
220
868673
2890
当人们不合作的时候，
14:43
don't blame their mindsets,
their mentalities, their personality --
their mentalities, their personality --
221
871587
4395
不要怪他们的思想、
他们的心理、他们的性格 --
他们的心理、他们的性格 --
14:48
look at the work situations.
222
876006
2151
请看一下他们的工作环境吧。
14:51
Is it really in their personal interest
to cooperate or not,
to cooperate or not,
223
879125
4249
合作与否真的事关他们的个人利益吗，
14:55
if, when they cooperate,
they are individually worse off?
they are individually worse off?
224
883398
3985
如果，他们合作了，
他们的个人表现会不会被削弱？
他们的个人表现会不会被削弱？
14:59
Why would they cooperate?
225
887914
1619
既然如此他们为什么还会合作呢？
15:01
When we blame personalities
226
889922
3592
当我们责怪的是一个人的性格，
15:05
instead of the clarity,
the accountability, the measurement,
the accountability, the measurement,
227
893538
6158
而不是责怪清晰度、问责制和衡量方法时，
15:11
we add injustice to ineffectiveness.
228
899720
3658
我们在无效之上又加上了不公正。
15:17
We need to create organizations
229
905654
1913
我们要创造的组织，
15:19
in which it becomes individually useful
for people to cooperate.
for people to cooperate.
230
907591
4314
应该让人们觉得合作有益于个人。
15:24
Remove the interfaces,
the middle offices --
the middle offices --
231
912807
4795
把界线划分、中间部门取消掉 --
15:29
all these complicated
coordination structures.
coordination structures.
232
917626
3058
所有这些复杂的协调结构。
15:33
Don't look for clarity; go for fuzziness.
233
921573
4380
不要强求清晰度；选择模糊。
15:37
Fuzziness overlaps.
234
925977
2015
模糊没有明确分界线。
15:41
Remove most of the quantitative metrics
to assess performance.
to assess performance.
235
929244
4480
取消大部分的评估表现的量化指标。
15:46
Speed the "what."
236
934200
1532
速度指的是“什么”。
15:48
Look at cooperation, the "how."
237
936414
2817
可我们要看的是合作，即“如何。”
15:51
How did you pass the baton?
238
939255
1601
你如何传递交接棒？
15:52
Did you throw it,
or did you pass it effectively?
or did you pass it effectively?
239
940880
3562
你直接抛弃它吗，
还是有效地传递过去？
还是有效地传递过去？
15:58
Am I putting my energy
in what can get measured --
in what can get measured --
240
946569
6058
我是不是把我的能量
都集中在了可量化的方面 --
都集中在了可量化的方面 --
16:04
my legs, my speed --
or in passing the baton?
or in passing the baton?
241
952651
4135
我的腿，我的速度 --
还是放在了如何传递交接棒上？
还是放在了如何传递交接棒上？
16:08
You, as leaders, as managers,
242
956810
4343
你们，作为领导和管理者，
16:13
are you making it individually useful
for people to cooperate?
for people to cooperate?
243
961177
5552
是否让人们觉得合作有益于个人了？
16:20
The future of our organizations,
244
968205
3138
我们组织、公司、社团的
16:23
our companies, our societies
245
971367

未来取决于

hinges on your answer to these questions.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Yves Morieux - ConsultantBCG's Yves Morieux researches how corporations can adapt to a modern and complex business landscape.
Why you should listen
Yves Morieux thinks deeply about what makes organizations work effectively. A senior partner in BCG’s Washington D.C. office and director of the BCG Institute for Organization, Morieux considers how overarching changes in structure can improve motivation for all who work there. His calls his approach "Smart Simplicity." Using six key rules, it encourages employees to cooperate in order to solve long-term problems. It isn’t just about reducing costs and increasing profit -- it’s about maximizing engagement through all levels of a company. Morieux has been featured in articles on organizational evolution in Harvard Business Review, The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company and Le Monde.
