本田宗一郎(1906年11月17日-1991年8月5日),出生於日本靜岡縣磐田郡光明村(後併入天龍市,現為濱松市天龍地區),是享譽全球的日本企業家與機械工程師,也是本田技研工業株式會社(Honda Motor Co., Ltd.)的創辦人。他以堅毅的創業精神和卓越的工程才能,將本田從一家小型摩托車修理工坊,發展為全球領先的摩托車與汽車製造企業。本田宗一郎與松下幸之助(松下電器)、盛田昭夫(索尼)、稻盛和夫(京瓷)並列,被譽為「日本經營四聖」,代表著戰後日本企業家精神的高峰。
憑藉無畏的膽識與對技術的不懈追求,本田宗一郎不僅創造了HONDA的品牌奇蹟,更奠定了日本製造業在全球市場的重要地位。他的經營理念和智慧值得我們效仿,今天,就來讀讀他的人生智慧及佳句吧 !
1.我不跟自己同樣性格的人共事。因為,如果對方跟自己個性一樣,就不需要兩個人,我自己一個人就夠了。
" I don't work with people who have the same personality as mine. If they were just like me, there'd be no need for two of us—one would be enough."2.光看別人臉色行事,把自己束縛起來的人,就不能突飛猛進,尤其是不可能在科學技術日新月異的年代裡生存下去,就會掉隊。
" Those who live by watching others' faces and restraining themselves can never make great progress. Especially in an age of rapidly advancing science and technology, they will simply fall behind."
3. 不為99次失敗氣餒,一心為第100次成功努力。
" Don't be discouraged by 99 failures—keep striving with everything you have for that 100th success."
4. 首先具有發明創新的天才,再次深諳經營管理的謀略。
" First, one must have the genius for invention and innovation. Then, one must master the strategies of business management."
5.關係或請人介紹,這種人我公司絕對不錄用。
" I absolutely do not hire people who rely on personal connections or recommendations. "
6.我一生從來沒有用過公司的錢,雖然我是這家公司的社長。
" Throughout my life, I have never used company money for personal reasons—even though I was the president. "
7. 工作是為自己工作,不是為別人工作。
" You work for yourself—not for others."
8. 在貧窮家庭出生,不要以為是可恥的。也不要因為家境窮苦,無法上比較高級的學校而悲觀。反而要為出生在貧苦家庭而自傲,因為出生在貧苦家庭,這是給你一個努力的機會。
" Being born into a poor family is nothing to be ashamed of. Don't feel discouraged just because you couldn't attend an elite school due to poverty. Instead, be proud of your humble beginnings—it's your chance to work hard and prove yourself. "
9.我是搞機械出身的,知道機械這種東西,只要有燃料和潤滑油便能使它運轉。同樣地,經營企業也要有一套哲學,沒有哲學的人來搞經營肯定會失敗。
" I come from a mechanical background, so I know that machines run as long as they have fuel and lubrication. Likewise, a business needs a guiding philosophy—without it, any attempt at management is bound to fail."
