Training Objectives
The growth of any enterprise, no matter how large, always begins small. Huawei, having steadily evolved into the powerhouse it is today—with over 200,000 employees—has developed a robust methodology refined through relentless real-world application, repeatedly tested and iterated against various challenges. This approach serves as a guiding framework for the company’s future growth and operations, sparking meaningful reflection along the way. We sincerely hope that, through Professor Wen Guoping’s inspiring and insightful speech, BangQi Technology’s leaders will gain valuable perspectives on how to leverage Huawei’s corporate culture and core values as a starting point for rethinking business development and team management. Ultimately, they’ll be able to draw profound lessons from Huawei’s remarkable success, unlocking the essence of effective enterprise management.


Recently, hosted by BangQi Technology, "Expert Lecture: Huawei’s High-Growth Formula — Huawei’s Corporate Culture" And Core Values Held successfully at the Shenzhen headquarters. During the lecture, Teacher Wen delivered an energizing and insightful session, skillfully guiding us through a review of Huawei’s corporate culture and core values—enabling us to grasp the fundamental principles behind the company’s rapid growth by learning from its remarkable success stories.


As times evolve, the era of relying solely on resources and opportunities will gradually fade away. Instead, seamless collaboration among teams and a deep alignment of shared values have become the core drivers of corporate efficiency and innovation—and the very foundation of a company’s competitive edge.

How can we achieve efficient collaboration among teams?
How can we achieve a high level of alignment in team values?
The answer is—great corporate culture!
Teacher Wen Guoping noted that in recent years, Huawei's "wolf-like culture" has gained widespread attention beyond the company itself. This culture embodies Huawei employees' fierce, relentless drive, their unwavering spirit of perseverance, and their strong sense of collective teamwork. It is precisely because Huawei staff deeply identify with their corporate culture and core values—and approach every task with unrelenting dedication—that the company has developed such remarkable execution capabilities.


The editor has summarized Teacher Wen Guoping's lecture.
Several core values of Huawei that were shared
The content overview is as follows:
01
"Customer-Centric"
Teacher Wen Guoping introduced that Huawei has always adhered to the philosophy of "customer-centricity," placing customers' needs at the very heart of the company's development and dedicating itself to delivering high-quality products and services. , with Meet the customer's needs. Huawei has always adhered to the principle of "Customer First," focusing on customer needs to deliver high-quality products and services, while fostering strong partnerships that enable customers to truly experience value.
Huawei's success wasn't achieved "overnight"—companies should learn from Huawei's perseverance. "Customer-Centric" The company’s philosophy places customer needs at the very heart of its development, striving to deliver high-quality products and services, build strong partnerships, and ultimately create greater value for our clients. Only then can businesses soar higher and go further!
02
“Openness, Compromise, and Nuance”
Teacher Wen Guoping stated, The so-called "openness" is a mindset that fosters teamwork and innovation; "compromise," on the other hand, is an attitude that helps resolve disagreements and conflicts within the team. Meanwhile, "gray-scale thinking" is a way of approaching problems that enables companies to make informed decisions even in uncertain environments. These three elements complement each other perfectly, providing robust support for a company's growth and success.
03
"Great generals invariably emerge from the ranks; prime ministers are invariably chosen from provincial and county administrations."
How should companies select talent? Huawei draws inspiration from a quote in Han Feizi: "Great generals emerge from the ranks, and statesmen are chosen from provincial administrations." Teacher Wen Guoping points out that this saying underscores the idea that true leaders and heroes aren’t necessarily predestined or handpicked by the company from the outset—but rather, they rise to prominence through their hard work and exceptional abilities demonstrated in everyday roles.
“ Great generals invariably emerge from the ranks, while prime ministers are invariably chosen from provincial and county officials. ” This cadre selection philosophy reminds us, When selecting talent, we should focus on practical work experience and capabilities—rather than solely on their background or credentials. This approach will help us identify leaders who are truly skilled and brimming with potential. After all, generals are forged in battle, personal achievements earn respect, and delivering results is at the heart of it all.

"Let those who can hear the sound of cannons lead the battle."
“People who can hear the gunfire” refers to those who are directly involved and actually carry out the tasks. Teacher Wen Guoping Point out, Huawei emphasizes the principle of "unity of knowledge and action," meaning leaders must possess the ability to take concrete actions and deliver results—rather than merely relying on verbal commitments or theoretical discussions.
"Let those who can hear the sound of cannons lead the battle." Enterprises should emphasize a practice-oriented approach, rejecting mere "armchair theorizing," and encourage employees to get hands-on, continuously iterating and refining their efforts to drive the company’s growth through concrete actions.

This lecture features not only a keynote speech but also a lively Q&A session, providing core team members of the company with a rare opportunity for learning and networking.
