The Cure for Common Management Summary
| Supervisors are told to rate their employees on a curve, and then have to work with disgruntled employees. Good employees leave, and those who aren't stick like glue. Our common approach to management yields burnout. We suffer more from managerial stress today than we did 40 years ago when we started specific actions to relieve it. Stress is a pervasive characteristic of modern management. Management engineering, the application of industrial engineering principles to gaining performance through an organization, provides a new vision. Stress is recognized as a symptom of a greater challenge, and can only be resolved by addressing the cause. Stress is also more than personal, it affects organizations. The first engineered step is stress relief. Personal stress is self-generated, and can be partly controlled by personal attitudes. The deeper challenge is then examined one stressor at a time. The source for managerial stress is soon obvious, an abiding weakness in management. As each stressor is examined, we also examine how to relieve that stressor through application of well-accepted good-management practices. There are appropriate applications by both subordinate and superior managers. The cumulative effect is a general improvement in management, with both personal and organizational benefits. This general improvement in management is the way to promote organization-level performances. |
