Build a professional team of project managers and carry forward the spirit of Jiangnan management consultants
As an intelligence-intensive service industry, the core competitiveness of engineering consulting enterprises lies in a strong talent pool. Since its establishment, Jiangnan Management has always attached great importance to the construction of its talent team. As an enterprise university independently founded by the company, Jiangnan Management College has set a precedent in the industry and has become a major feature and highlight of Jiangnan Management. The college holds classes every year, covering all levels of the company from top to bottom. It trains over 2,000 people annually and has provided a large number of talents for the company's development.
The Evergreen Vine Program is a reserve backbone talent training program established by the college to meet the needs of enterprise transformation and upgrading development. Its goal is to cultivate high-quality and professional project manager talents. The members are mainly outstanding reserve talents who have already made a name for themselves in the company headquarters, various business divisions, local branches and project departments, and are capable of independently carrying out work in their respective positions, with great potential for development. The trainees were selected after self-registration and review and assessment by Jiangnan Management College. They are the middle-level technical and management backbones that the company focuses on and cultivates.
From July 12th to 13th, under the meticulous planning and organization of Jiangnan Management College, the company successfully held the second phase of the "Ivy League Program" training course. The teaching format was mainly offline centralized lectures, emphasizing face-to-face communication between teachers and students. It also combined online learning, defense training, and the review of key and difficult knowledge points to assist in teaching, effectively enhancing the practical abilities of the trainees. A total of 41 people participated in this training course, and they have already received the first season of training in April 2019, with good results.
On the first day of the training course, Zheng Dawei, the deputy chief engineer of the company and the vice president of Jiangnan Management College, made an opening statement. General Zheng pointed out that "being rigorous, pragmatic, and striving for progress" is an excellent tradition of Jiangnan Management. In the new era, Jiangnan employees should view the changes in the industry and the internal and external environment of the enterprise with a developmental perspective. They should constantly improve their personal qualities through learning to assist the enterprise in transformation and upgrading. In an era where opportunities and challenges coexist, they should forge ahead bravely, strive for progress, and create new glories for Jiangnan Management!
Subsequently, General Manager Zheng first started from national policies and the theoretical support of the whole-process engineering consultation, systematically explaining the "Overview of the Whole-Process Engineering Consultation", pointing out that improving the efficiency and effectiveness of engineering consultation is the main purpose of promoting the whole-process engineering consultation, and as supervision practitioners, they need to strengthen their own capacity building. Subsequently, Mr. Zheng, drawing on his years of experience in project management, including supervision, and later in providing full-process engineering consulting services at Jiangnan Management, took cases such as the Shenzhen Sun Yat-sen University project and the Shenzhen Radio and Television Finance Center project as the analysis objects, and shared the difficulties, experiences, and gains and losses encountered in the process of providing full-process engineering consulting services. This enabled the trainees to have a more personal understanding of the opportunities and challenges of engaging in full-process engineering consulting.
That afternoon, Tao Shengjian, the general manager of the company's whole-process Consulting division, and CAI Liping, the general manager of Jiangnan Zhengxin, respectively delivered keynote lectures on "Procurement Management" and "Cost Management". Among them, "Bidding and Procurement Management" is based on national laws, regulations and documents, teaching the basic concepts and procedures in the bidding process, interpreting the work content of bidding and procurement management, and at the same time, elaborating on the key points to note in the work through practical cases. Finally, it focuses on interpreting the five key issues in the bidding of EPC units, fully integrating theory with practice. It enabled the trainees to have a more intuitive understanding of the procurement management work. As a senior expert in cost consulting for the company, General Manager CAI Liping started from the basic concepts of construction project cost management, elaborated in detail on the two meanings and differences of project cost, clarified the basic principles of cost management, expounded on the contents of cost management work at each stage, helped the trainees master the core elements of cost management, and guided them to better apply it to their work practice!
On the second day of the training course, senior project managers Fu Zhongkai, Gu Jinsheng and Hu Yao of the company respectively delivered lectures on "Design Management", "Contract Management" and "Approval and Construction Application" from the perspectives of their own work practice and experience accumulation. They helped the trainees clarify the basic concepts, sort out the main points and key points, and pointed out the matters that should be noted in specific work through the analysis of cases. And in the course, active question-and-answer interactions are carried out to specifically enhance the professional skills and management capabilities of the trainees.
All six courses are compulsory for project managers of the whole-process engineering consulting and are the basic qualities and abilities that an outstanding project manager must possess. The six courses combine theory with practice, are based on cases, oriented towards problems, and aim to enhance the ability to solve practical problems, fully embodying the educational philosophy and academic attitude of Jiangnan School of Management.
After the course ended, the trainees were divided into several groups, with the company's top leaders serving as the mentors for each group. The trainees and their mentors held a face-to-face "Ivy League Teacher-Student Symposium", where both sides engaged in candid exchanges. The mentors have a comprehensive understanding of the trainees' situations, provide targeted guidance on their career development positioning, work ideas and methods, etc. At the same time, they check the reading plans, study notes and other assignments assigned in advance, and guide the trainees to make continuous progress on their respective development paths in accordance with their aptitudes. To promote the sustainable development of the company, implement the company's talent priority strategy, and strengthen the internal talent cultivation mechanism of the enterprise, after the conclusion of this season's training, the third and fourth seasons of training will be held successively in the second half of this year. This will help the trainees to keep up the good work and make further progress in the process of growing into middle-level backbone personnel of the company.
