From “Managers” to “Operators” ‑ Xingte’s Amoeba‑style Management Training Ignites Fresh Organisational Momentum

At the start of the new year, an operational transformation centred on “mind‑set breakthrough" has officially kicked off at Xingte Technology. To deepen business‑model reform and boost core competitiveness, the company organised specialised training on the Amoeba Management Model for its core management team. We invited seasoned Amoeba‑practice expert Mr. Guo Limen to deliver on‑site lectures, marking the launch of in‑depth reform of the corporate operating system.

Critical Transition: Driving the Mind‑set Shift from “Manager" to “Operator"

“This training constitutes a key component of our corporate strategic transformation. Its core objective is to push the management team to complete the mind‑set leap from 'managers’ to 'operators’," emphasised Chairman Deng Dejun during the opening ceremony.

He urged all participants to fully grasp the essence of Amoeba management: autonomous operation, independent accounting and full‑staff participation. The “operator mindset" should be truly internalised and put into practical action. Building on previous finance and cost‑control training outcomes, the concepts of value creation and continuous improvement shall run through all daily‑management workflows.

Practical Drills: Cultivating Real‑world Operational Competence in a Simulated‑market Environment

Adopting an innovative four‑in‑one training format: concise theoretical lectures, hands‑on tool practice, case studies and simulation exercises, the programme revolves around the fundamental business principle of “maximise sales, minimise expenses". Core modules cover organisational structuring and business accounting.

The sand‑table simulation exercise stood out as a highlight. Trainees were divided into groups to set‑up miniature business units and engage in real‑world cost‑and‑benefit games within a simulated market scenario. Drawing on typical business cases such as high‑precision automated winding equipment, Mr. Guo Limen gave in‑depth explanations of the practical value of breaking down organisations into smaller Amoeba units. He guided participants to translate theoretical frameworks into department‑specific management practices, achieving a capability shift “from understanding theories to adept practical application".

Building Consensus: The Idea of “Everyone is an Operating Entity" Takes Root

During sessions, ten trainee groups held intensive discussions and brainstorming covering core business functions including R&D, precision machining, assembly and sales. Through practical exercises such as creating visual progress‑tracking charts, defining micro‑business units and identifying profit centres, teams generated abundant management insights tailored to the company’s real‑world conditions.

General Manager Xie Mingping commented in his sharing session: “The Amoeba model aims to completely break the ingrained mind‑set of passive management and mechanical execution. Every employee shall become an operating entity that proactively creates value, bringing about a fundamental shift from 'I am told to do the work’ toward 'I want to get the work done’. As corporate operators, we will fully drive model implementation and guide every staff member to raise efficiency and cut costs from their own posts." His remarks struck a chord with widespread resonance among attendees. The core ethos — know how to calculate, analyse, execute and improve — resonated deeply with all participants.

New Journey Begins: Systemised Practices Enable Strategic Delivery

Xingte Technology is currently at a pivotal phase of organisational and strategic upgrading. This training injects two vital elements for reform: the all‑staff operational mind‑set and business‑accounting toolkits. Deputy General Manager of Operations Zhou Xiaofeng noted: “Sustained corporate growth, much like Inamori Kazuo’s success formula, hinges on the combined force of every employee’s mindset, passion and competence." It is reported that the Human Resources Department will take the lead in rolling‑out pilot programmes first within production and sales departments. Supporting mechanisms including sharing salons and monthly reviews will be deployed to systematically realise full‑scale implementation of Amoeba concepts and tooling.

Taking this training as a fresh starting point, Xingte Technology will fully implement the guiding principles of benchmark‑driven improvement, lean manufacturing, business empowerment and management transformation. We will keep advancing management innovation and fully unlock internal vitality across all business units. This management upgrade originating from mind‑set awakening has sown the seeds of “everyone being an operator". It will surely deliver robust, long‑lasting momentum for strategy execution and strengthened market competitiveness, enabling the enterprise to forge ahead steadily along the path of high‑quality development.
