HR jargon makes me crazy.
0
579
1443
O jargão de RH me deixa louca.
00:02
We have to have all these stupid acronyms
1
2046
2005
Temos todos esses acrônimos estúpidos
que descrevem coisas
que ninguém entende: OKRs e PIPs.
00:04
that describe things that nobody
understands: OKRs and PIPs.

4075
3965
00:08
I think we can run our businesses
3
8064
1635
Podemos administrar nossos negócios
00:09
by just talking to each other
like regular human beings.
4
9723
2690
conversando uns com os outros
como seres humanos normais.
00:12
We might actually get more done.
5
12437
1443
Podemos, na verdade, fazer mais.

[A Maneira como Trabalhamos]
00:18
I really always wanted to be
an HR professional,
7
18155
2636
Sempre quis ser profissional de RH,
00:20
I wanted to be able to speak
the language of management.
8
20815
2743
queria falar a linguagem da gestão.
00:23
And you know what I've learned
after all this time?
9
23582
2413
Sabe o que aprendi após todo esse tempo?
Acho que nada disso importa.
00:26
I don't think any of it matters.
10
26019
1531
Existem várias coisas que chamamos
de "melhores práticas"
00:27
There's all kinds of things
that we call "best practices"
11
27574
2974
00:30
that aren't best practices at all.
12
30572
1898
que não são as melhores práticas.
00:32
How do we know it's best?
We don't measure this stuff.
13
32494
2752
Como sabemos que é melhor?
Não medimos essas coisas.
00:35
In fact, I've learned
that "best practices" usually means
14
35270
3383
Na verdade, aprendi que as melhores
práticas geralmente significam
00:38
copying what everybody else does.
15
38677
1594
copiar o que todos fazem.
Nosso mundo está mudando
e evoluindo o tempo todo.
00:40
Our world is changing
and evolving all the time.
16
40295
2872
Eis algumas lições
para ajudar você a se adaptar.
00:43
Here are some lessons to help you adapt.
17
43191
2143
00:45
Lesson one: Your employees are adults.
18
45358
2547
Lição um: Seus funcionários são adultos.
00:47
You know, we've created so many layers
19
47929
2111
Sabe, criamos tantas camadas,
00:50
and so many processes
and so many guidelines
20
50064
2794
tantos processos e tantas diretrizes
00:52
to keep those employees in place
21
52882
1879
para manter esses funcionários na linha
00:54
that we've ended up with systems
that treat people like they're children.
22
54785
3680
que acabamos com sistemas que tratam
pessoas como se fossem crianças.
00:58
And they're not.
23
58489
1202
E elas não são.
Adultos plenamente formados
passam pela porta todo dia.
00:59
Fully formed adults
walk in the door every single day.
24
59715
2547
Eles pagam aluguel, têm obrigações,
01:02
They have rent payments,
they have obligations,
25
62286
2556
01:04
they're members of society,
26
64866
1349
são membros da sociedade,
01:06
they want to create
a difference in the world.
27
66239
2166
querem fazer uma diferença no mundo.
Se começarmos supondo
01:08
So if we start with the assumption
28
68429
1683
que todos vêm trabalhar
para fazer um trabalho incrível,
01:10
that everybody comes to work
to do an amazing job,
29
70136
2348
01:12
you'd be surprised what you get.
30
72508
1587
ficaríamos surpresos com o resultado.
01:14
Lesson two: The job of management
isn't to control people,
31
74119
3448
Lição dois: O trabalho da gestão
não é controlar pessoas,
01:17
it's to build great teams.
32
77591
1357
é formar grandes equipes.
01:18
When managers build great teams,
here's how you know it.
33
78972
3571
Quando gerentes formam grandes equipes,
veja como identificar isso.
Elas fazem coisas incríveis.
01:22
They've done amazing stuff.
34
82567
1317
01:23
Customers are really happy.
35
83908
1473
Os clientes ficam muito felizes.
01:25
Those are the metrics that really matter.
36
85405
2286
Essas são as métricas
que realmente importam
01:27
Not the metrics of:
"Do you come to work on time?"
37
87715
2587
e não as métricas de:
"Você vem trabalhar no horário?"
01:30
"Did you take your vacation?"
"Did you follow the rules?"
38
90326
2698
"Você tirou suas férias?"
"Você seguiu as regras?"
"Você pediu permissão?"
01:33
"Did you ask for permission?"
39
93048
1412
01:34
Lesson three: People want to do work
that means something.
40
94484
3206
Lição três: As pessoas querem
fazer um trabalho significativo.
01:37
After they do it,
they should be free to move on.
41
97714
2458
Depois, devem estar livres
para seguir em frente.
01:40
Careers are journeys.
42
100196
1275
Carreiras são jornadas.
01:41
Nobody's going to want to do
the same thing for 60 years.
43
101495
2741
Ninguém vai querer fazer
a mesma coisa por 60 anos.
Portanto, a ideia de manter
as pessoas apenas por mantê-las
01:44
So the idea of keeping people
for the sake of keeping them
44
104260
3253
01:47
really hurts both of us.
45
107537
1509
realmente fere ambas as partes.
01:49
Instead, what if we created companies
that were great places to be from?
46
109070
4900
E se, em vez disso, criássemos empresas
que fossem ótimas para trabalhar?
01:53
And everyone who leaves you
47
113994
1610
E todos que deixam sua empresa
01:55
becomes an ambassador
for not only your product,
48
115628
3254
tornam-se embaixadores
não apenas de seu produto,
01:58
but who you are and how you operate.
49
118906
2031
mas de quem você é e como você opera.
02:00
And when you spread that kind
of excitement throughout the world,
50
120961
3809
E, quando você espalha
esse tipo de entusiasmo pelo mundo,
02:04
then we make all of our companies better.
51
124794
2238
melhoramos todas as nossas empresas.
02:07
Lesson four: Everyone in your company
should understand the business.
52
127056
4087
Lição quatro: Todos em sua empresa
devem entender o negócio.
02:11
Now, based on the assumption
that we've got smart adults here,
53
131167
3016
Supondo que temos
adultos inteligentes aqui,
02:14
the most important thing we can teach them
is how our business works.
54
134207
3254
o mais importante a ensinar
é como nosso negócio funciona.
Quando analiso empresas
que se movem rapidamente,
02:17
When I look at companies
that are moving fast,
55
137485
2379
02:19
that are really innovative
56
139888
1378
que são realmente inovadoras
02:21
and that are doing amazing things
with agility and speed,
57
141290
4432
e que fazem coisas incríveis
com agilidade e velocidade,
02:25
it's because they're collaborative.
58
145746
1691
é porque elas são colaborativas.
O melhor a fazer é ensinar constantemente
uns aos outros o que fazemos,
02:27
The best thing that we can do
is constantly teach each other what we do,
59
147461
4582
02:32
what matters to us, what we measure,
what goodness looks like,
60
152198
3810
o que importa para nós,
o que medimos, o que é a bondade,
02:36
so that we can all drive
towards achieving the same thing.
61
156032
2809
para que todos possamos
alcançar a mesma coisa.
02:39
Lesson five: Everyone in your company
should be able to handle the truth.
62
159310
4197
Lição cinco: Todos em sua empresa
devem saber lidar com a verdade.
02:43
You know why people say
giving feedback is so hard?
63
163531
2961
Sabe por que as pessoas dizem
que dar feedback é tão difícil?
02:46
They don't practice.
64
166828
1299
Elas não praticam.
02:48
Let's take the annual performance review.
65
168151
2127
Observemos a revisão anual de desempenho.
02:50
What else do you do in your whole life
that you're really good at
66
170302
3112
O que mais você faz muito bem na vida,
mas apenas uma vez ao ano?
02:53
that you only do once a year?
67
173438
1697
02:55
Here's what I found:
68
175159
1500
Eis o que descobri:
02:56
humans can hear anything if it's true.
69
176683
3230
os seres humanos podem ouvir
qualquer coisa, se for verdade.
02:59
So let's rethink the word "feedback,"
70
179937
3666
Então, vamos repensar
a palavra "feedback",
03:03
and think about it as telling people
the truth, the honest truth,
71
183627
4657
e pensar nisso em como dizer
às pessoas a verdade sincera,
03:08
about what they're doing right
and what they're doing wrong,
72
188308
2835
sobre o que estão fazendo certo e errado,
no momento em que estão fazendo.
03:11
in the moment when they're doing it.
73
191167
1731
"Essa coisa boa que você
acabou de fazer, uau!
03:12
That good thing you just did, whoo!
74
192922
1777
03:14
That's exactly what I'm talking about.
75
194723
1833
É exatamente disso que estou falando.
03:16
Go do that again.
76
196580
1158
Faça de novo."
03:17
And people will do that again,
today, three more times.
77
197762
2808
E as pessoas farão isso de novo,
hoje, ou mais três vezes.
03:21
Lesson six: Your company needs
to live out its values.
78
201167
3833
Lição seis: Sua empresa precisa
dar o exemplo dos valores dela.
03:25
I was talking to a company
not long ago, to the CEO.
79
205024
3286
Conversei, não faz muito tempo,
com o CEO de uma empresa.
03:28
He was having trouble
because the company was rocky
80
208334
3523
Ele estava tendo problemas
porque a empresa estava instável,
03:31
and things weren't getting done on time,
81
211881
1995
as coisas não eram concluídas a tempo,
e ele sentia que o trabalho era malfeito.
03:33
and he felt like things were sloppy.
82
213900
1848
03:36
This also was a man who, I observed,
83
216278
2317
Mas também observei que ele era um homem
03:38
never showed up to any meeting on time.
84
218619
2786
que nunca comparecia
às reuniões na hora marcada.
Jamais.
03:41
Ever.
85
221429
1159
Se você faz parte da liderança,
03:42
If you're part of a leadership team,
86
222612
1730
o mais importante que pode fazer para
"defender seus valores" é dar o exemplo.
03:44
the most important thing that you can do
to "uphold your values" is to live them.
87
224366
4968
03:49
People can't be what they can't see.
88
229358
2371
As pessoas não podem ser
o que não podem ver.
03:51
We say, "Yes, we're here for equality,"
89
231753
2540
Dizemos: "Estamos aqui pela igualdade",
e, então, batemos no peito com orgulho
03:54
and then we proudly pound our chest
90
234317
2526
03:56
because we'd achieved 30 percent
representation of women
91
236867
3136
porque conseguimos 30%
de representação de mulheres
04:00
on an executive team.
92
240027
1363
em uma equipe executiva.
04:01
Well that's not equal, that's 30 percent.
93
241414
2832
Isso não é igualdade, são 30%.
04:04
Lesson seven: All start-up
ideas are stupid.
94
244270
2935
Lição sete: Todas as ideias
de startups são estúpidas.
04:07
I spend a lot of time with start-ups,
95
247587
2395
Passei muito tempo com startups
e tenho muitos amigos que trabalham
em empresas maiores e mais estabelecidas
04:10
and I have a lot of friends that work
in larger, more established companies.
96
250006
3581
e sempre desprezam as empresas
com as quais trabalho.
04:13
They are always pooh-poohing
the companies that I work with.
97
253611
2829
"É uma ideia tão estúpida."
04:16
"That is such a stupid idea."
98
256464
1405
Todas as ideias de startups são estúpidas.
04:17
Well, guess what:
all start-up ideas are stupid.
99
257893
2298
Se fossem razoáveis, alguém
já as teria implementado.
04:20
If they were reasonable, somebody else
would have already been doing them.
100
260215
3563
Lição oito: Toda empresa precisa
estar animada com a mudança.
04:23
Lesson eight: Every company
needs to be excited for change.
101
263802
3133
04:26
Beware of the smoke of nostalgia.
102
266959
2589
Cuidado com a fumaça da nostalgia.
04:29
If you find yourself saying,
"Remember the way it used to be?"
103
269572
3793
Se você se pegar dizendo:
"Lembra-se de como costumava ser?"
04:33
I want you to shift your thinking to say,
104
273389
2372
Quero que mude seu pensamento e diga:
"Pense em como vai ser".
04:35
"Think about the way it's going to be."
105
275785
1898
Se eu tivesse uma empresa dos sonhos,
04:37
If I had a dream company,
106
277707
2635
04:40
I would walk in the door and I would say,
107
280366
2032
entraria pela porta e diria:
04:42
"Everything's changed, all bets are off.
108
282422
1920
"Tudo mudou; apostas canceladas.
Corremos o mais rápido possível
para a direita; agora para a esquerda".
04:44
We were running
as fast as we can to the right,
109
284366
2258
04:46
and now we'll take a hard left."
110
286648
1564
E todos diriam: "Sim!"
04:48
And everybody would go "Yes!"
111
288236
1477
Esse é um mundo muito emocionante
e está mudando o tempo todo.
04:49
It's a pretty exciting world out there,
and it's changing all the time.
112
289737
3334
Quanto mais o abraçarmos e nos mantivermos
animados, mais divertido será para nós.
04:53
The more we embrace it
and get excited about it,
113
293096
2308
04:55
the more fun we're going to have.
