A barrel refers to a barrel-shaped container. In the field of wine packaging, oak for more than 20 years is generally used as the material to achieve the effect of sealing and maintaining the quality of wine, so it is also called oak barrel. What does the barrel theory mean?

1, Konikin's law is also called barrel effect. The so-called "barrel theory" is also the "barrel law". Its core content is that the amount of water in a bucket does not depend on the tallest piece of wood on the bucket wall, but on the shortest piece on the bucket wall. Kannikin's law was put forward by American management scientist Peter. It can also be called short board effect.

2. There is a famous "barrel theory" in management science, which refers to using a wooden barrel to barrel water. If the wooden boards that make up a barrel are uneven, then the water capacity it can hold is not determined by the longest wooden board in the barrel, but by the shortest wooden board in the barrel, so it is also called "short board effect".

3. It can be seen that in the development process of things, the length of the "short board" determines its overall development degree. Just like the quality of a product depends on the components with the lowest quality, not the components with the best quality; The overall quality of an organization does not depend on the quality of the best molecules in the organization, but on the quality of the most general molecules in the organization. This phenomenon is often called "barrel effect" in management.

4. The barrel effect was originally a classic barrel theory in individual capital: the amount of water contained in a barrel does not depend on the average length of the tallest wooden block or all the wooden boards on the barrel wall, but on the shortest wooden board.

5, because the water level is flush with the shortest board. In order to improve the overall effect of wooden barrels, we should not continue to increase the length of those longer boards, but should make great efforts to make up the length of the shortest boards. This short board has become the "limiting factor" (or "short board effect") of the water capacity of this bucket. To increase the water capacity of this bucket, we can only replace the short board or lengthen it. People sum up this law as "Kanekin's Law" and get the "barrel law", which is the so-called "barrel effect". Short board effect is a classic of barrel theory.

This is the end of the introduction about the meaning of barrel theory.
