爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
To do away with the multiplicity of "drives," rapidly becoming a drain upon the efforts of the men engaged in them, a War Chest Committee was now formed in Philadelphia and vicinity to collect money for all the war-work agencies. Bok was made a member of the Executive Committee, and chairman of the Publicity Committee. In May, 1918, a campaign for twenty millions of dollars was started; the amount was subscribed, and although much of it had to be collected after the armistice, since the subscriptions were in twelve monthly payments, a total of fifteen and a half million dollars was paid in and turned over to the different agencies.

白话
当时各种募捐活动太多,参与者疲于奔命,于是费城成立战争基金委员会,统一为所有战时机构筹款。博克担任执行委员和宣传委员会主席。1918年5月发起两千万美元募捐,虽然认购款分十二个月支付,且大部分在停战后才收取,最终仍实收一千五百五十万美元并转交各机构。这说明把分散的募捐整合起来,能减少重复劳动、提高效率;关键是要有统一机构、明确目标和分期收款机制。

你身边有没有可以合并的重复性事务?能否用一个统一机制来减少内耗?
