audience's take on the practice of management

For a person that lives and breathes "management" and believes and extols the nobility of the role, it is quite unnerving when someone expresses what I can surmise as someone on the receiving end of a bad management practice.

Essentially, the actor of that particular management practice only embraces the school of thought that management exist to "make work productive" and left the other half of "make workers achieving", out in the cold and in the rain = ).

I have this hypothesis that one of the reasons why we are where we are right now, in terms of economic growth, it is because someone like Peter Drucker was patient enough to observe, articulate and wrote the practice of management after the 2nd World War.

I firmly believe that for an organization to evolved further, it has to change how it manages the expression of its purpose and the mission to the world.

The Management of an organization, not the person who holds the position but the collective expression of talented individuals, must evolve with the changing environment as it express its purpose and mission out to the outside world.

"... why think like mere men?"
