Jira Consulting 101
I like to reflect and hypothesize on how I would have avoided mistakes or done better if I could go back in time.
After graduating in 2010, after the first five years of social beatings in the workplace, I found that I had to hug my thighs if I wanted to make a living in Chinese society without kneeling down and brushing up my IQ, on the premise that my dad was not Li Gang. After two rounds of failed attempts, namely the SAP HCM leg and policy speculation, I was finally fortunate enough to hug the Atlassian leg before the door of opportunity closed, and was able to make a living in the current environment where China as a whole is heading towards a hard landing and recession.
No success can be achieved overnight and every failure is a stepping stone to success.
From Maslow's model, physiological needs, i.e. survival, are satisfied before pursuing a higher spiritual level of self-actualization. Perhaps because I have no heart and no lungs, I have no money to pursue spiritual fulfilment. The pain often comes not from lack of money, but from the fact that there are so many questions that cannot be answered, from all sources, parents, friends, the media, and the light of reality, which is severely cut off.
If I had the chance to go back 10 years, apart from the advice to buy Bitcoin and get rich overnight. I would prefer to take these two books with me, "China IT Project and Management Culture Explained" and "Jira Consultant's Dictionary", because after reading them, you can't get rich and famous, but at least you can answer your questions and solve your problems.
Not all families are in a position to send their children abroad or to work comfortably in the system, there are still many who must fight in the cruel inner rolls of Chinese society.
A good product should not be the office, patting the head to think that customers will have needs, but the actual pain points encountered in their own or research, targeted to polish, in order to make the user satisfied, will smile at the product.
Writing a lengthy article, or even a book, is a long, boring and largely unlikely to be financially rewarding endeavour. But to think that the content could help similarly confused working-class workers, Jira engineers and university graduates is really rewarding.
The first book gives a general idea of how Chinese society works and how to avoid pitfalls when making major decisions.
The second book is intended to give those who wish to work in Jira consulting a systematic understanding of the Atlassian product and a project perspective (not menu functionality). It will therefore be in plain language, with an emphasis on practicality rather than high level theory.
Please note in particular that no consultant can be trained and studied alone, it has to be done through real projects and the best way to learn is to do projects while doing them. If, after reading this book, you go to do a project and are still flummoxed, that is normal, no novice driver who has just left driving school without an accident or a cut. If you don't have a project in hand that you can do right now, you can also look at this book with a methodological learning attitude.
