“Sow a thought, reap an action. Sow an action, reap a habit. Sow a habit, reap a character. Sow a character, reap a destiny.” This timeless saying partly illustrates the importance of management skills in life. So, what is the current state of management skills among Vietnamese people? Let’s analyze and find solutions together with “KỸ NĂNG MỀM”!
The “Bittersweet” Reality of Vietnamese Management Skills
Despite being recognized as a country with an abundant and dynamic workforce, management skills among Vietnamese people still have limitations. According to research by the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness, only about 20% of Vietnamese businesses have management teams that meet international standards. Some common issues include:
- Ineffective time management: The concept of “rubber time” is a prime example. Lateness and failure to meet deadlines not only affect work progress but also damage personal credibility.
- Lack of communication and conflict resolution skills: The culture of “silence is golden” or “make friends, not enemies” sometimes leads to unresolved conflicts being suppressed, affecting teamwork efficiency.
- Lack of proactiveness in updating knowledge and improving skills: Many people still have a “go with the flow” or “wait until the house burns down to act” mentality, reluctant to change and learn, leading to falling behind the times.
Professor Le Thang, a leading expert in human development, commented: “Poor management skills are one of the biggest obstacles to the sustainable development of Vietnamese businesses and society.”
