In Jiangsu, there are indeed many people who are known for their shrewdness. This trait may lead to excessive internal competition in business operations. In order to ensure that the internal competition of the company is not too fierce, the following measures can be taken: 1. **Clear goals and vision**: Ensure that all employees are clear about the company's overall goals and vision. Combine team goals with personal goals to make employees understand the importance of working together. 2. **Encourage cooperation**: Promote a teamwork culture, establish a team reward mechanism, and encourage cooperation between departments instead of pure competition. 3. **Establish a transparent performance evaluation system**: Adopt a fair and impartial performance evaluation system to let employees understand the evaluation criteria and reduce competition caused by unclear evaluation mechanisms. 4. **Provide professional training**: Conduct employee training regularly to improve the overall quality of the team, let employees realize that personal growth and teamwork are equally important, and reduce internal friction. 5. **Leadership's guiding role**: Management needs to lead by example, emphasize the importance of cooperation, and influence employee behavior through their own actions. 6. **Communication and feedback**: Establish a good communication mechanism to encourage full communication between employees and between superiors and subordinates, provide timely feedback, and reduce misunderstandings and competition. 7. **Set up a reasonable incentive mechanism**: The incentive mechanism should take into account both individual performance and team performance, and avoid disharmony caused by over-emphasizing individual competition. Through the above measures, we can effectively reduce the excessive internal competition caused by shrewdness and promote a more harmonious and efficient working environment.
