In this case, it is usually necessary to find a balance between incentives and collaboration. Companies can start from the following aspects to give full play to the initiative of employees/managers and avoid unnecessary internal friction: 1. Clarify strategic goals and performance appraisal system: The company can formulate a performance appraisal system that has both individual goals and team goals. It is necessary to reward individual efforts and achievements, and at the same time, it is necessary to assess the effectiveness of cross-departmental collaboration, and encourage everyone to work for the overall interests, rather than simply pursuing departmental or personal performance. 2. Establish a fair and transparent information communication mechanism: Ensure that the standards and processes for internal decision-making, rewards, promotions, etc. in the company are open and transparent, and avoid internal vicious competition caused by information asymmetry or unfairness. Regular communication meetings between departments and teams will help to coordinate and eliminate internal conflicts in a timely manner. 3. Formulate reasonable internal competition and collaboration rules: At the corporate culture level, emphasize the concept of "win-win cooperation" and set up institutional measures to limit excessive competition. For example, a warning mechanism or regulatory measures can be established for behaviors that pursue personal or departmental interests too much and damage the collaboration of the entire team, so that competition is always kept within a healthy and orderly range. 4. Design a variety of incentives: In addition to material incentives, the company can also provide team rewards, project bonuses, employee training and other methods to enhance employees' sense of belonging and overall honor. In this way, even if employees are naturally shrewd and have a strong sense of competition, they will closely link their success with the development of the company. 5. The leadership leads by example and creates a good corporate culture: The management should take the initiative to advocate teamwork and sharing of experience, promptly commend and promote employees who have made outstanding contributions to teamwork, knowledge sharing and common growth, and use practical actions to guide people to realize that healthy internal competition is the cornerstone of the company's long-term development. Through the above measures, the company can not only stimulate the enthusiasm and creativity of employees, but also effectively prevent excessive internal competition and create a working environment that is both dynamic and full of trust and collaboration.
