Management Basics and the Manager Job Role

Management Basics and the Manager Job RoleManagement Basics and the Manager Job RoleWhat is management?What do managers do? How do I manage? These are standard questions that most of us in the management profession have been asked more than once and they are questions we asked once in our careers, too. Here is a basic look at management- a virtual Management 101. Art and Science Managementis both an art and a science. It is the art of making people more effective than they would have been without you and there is a science to how you do that. There are four basic pillars of the managers role plan, organize, direct, and monitor. Maximize Effectiveness To illustrate the benefits of an effective manager, consider this scenario Four workers can make 6 units in an eight-hour shift without a manager. If you are hired to manage them and they still make 6 units a day, what is your benefit to the business? On the other hand, if they now make 8 units per day, you- as the manager- have value. The same analogy applies to service, retail, teaching, or any other kind of work. Can your group handle more customer calls with you than without? Sell higher value merchandise? Imparte knowledge more effectively? That is the value of management- making a group of individual workers more effective. Plan If management starts with planning, good management starts with good planning. Without a plan, you will never succeed. If you happen to make it to the goal, it will have been by luck or chance and is not repeatable. You may make it as a flash-in-the-pan- an overnight sensation- but you will never have the track record of accomplishments of which success is made. Figure out what your goal is, or listen when your boss tells you, then figure out the best way to get there. What resources do you have? What can you get? Compare the strengths and weaknesses of individuals and other resources. Look at all the probable scenarios and develop a plan for them. Figure out the worst pos sible scenario and plan for that, too. Evaluate your different plans and develop what, in your best judgment, will work the best and what you will do if it doesnt. TIPOne of the most often overlooked management planning tools is the most effective. Ask the people doing the work for their input. Organize Now that you have a plan, you have to make it happen. Is everything ready ahead of your group so the right stuff will get to your group at the right time? Is your group prepared to do its part of the plan? Is the downstream organization ready for what your group will deliver and when it will arrive? Find out if your workers are training and motivated and if they have the necessary equipment for following through on your plan. Your plan should include solutions for any eventuality, so prepare to have the necessary spare parts for the equipment. Enaya that purchasing has ordered the material and it is the right stuff and it will arrive in time to keep your plan on schedule. Do the legwork to make sure everything needed to execute the plan is ready to go or will be when it is needed. Check back to make sure that everyone understands their role and the importance of their role in the overall success. Direct Everything is in place and it is now time to flip the ON switch- tell people what they need to do. We like to think of this part like conducting an orchestra Everyone in the orchestra has the music in front of them and they know which section is playing which piece and when. They know when to come in, what to play, and when to stop again. The conductor cues each section to make the music happen- thats your job here. Youve given all your musicians (workers) the sheet music (the plan), you have the right number of musicians (workers) in each section (department), and youve arranged the sections on stage so the music will sound best (you have organized the work). Now you need only to tap the podium lightly with your baton to get their attention and give th e downbeat. Monitor Now that you have everything moving, you have to keep an eye on things. Make sure everything is going according to the plan and, when it isnt going according to plan, step in and adjust the plan. Problems will come up- someone will get sick a part wont be delivered on time a key customer will go bankrupt- but that is why you developed a contingency plan in the first place. You, as the manager, have to always be aware of whats going on so you can make any necessary adjustments. Monitoring is an iterative process- when something is out of sync, you need to plan a fix, organize the resources to make it work, direct the people who will make it happen, and continue to monitor the effect of the change. A Rewarding Experience Managing people is not easy however, it can be done successfully and it can be a very rewarding experience. Remember that management, like any other skill, is something that you can improve at with study and practice.

The environment effect Why so few people succeed and others dont

The environment effect Why so few people succeed and others dontThe environment effect Why so few people succeed and others dontOn November 16, 1532, Inca emperor, Atahuallpa, and invading Spanish conquistador, Francisco Pizarro, set eyes on one another for the first time, at the Peruvian highland town of Cajamarca.1Atahuallpa had a huge home advantage. He was the monarch of the largest and most advanced state in the New World, ruled an empire of millions of people, and was surrounded by an army of 80,000 soldiers on home soil.Pizarro on the other hand, led a group of 168 Spanish soldiers into the unfamiliar terrain of Atahuallpas empire, far away from reinforcements.The odds were heavily stacked in Atahuallpas favour, as he was on home soil, and his 80,000 soldiers significantly outnumbered Pizarros 168 men.Shortly after, the Indian soldiers would defeat the Spanish invaders, in a one-sided battle.Or would they?Within a few minutes of the first encounter between the two leaders, Piz arro captured Atahuallpa, and his soldiers slaughtered over 7,000 Indian troops, in what was the bloodiest massacre of indigenous people during the early Colonial era.Several months later, Pizzaro executed Atahuallpa, and the Spaniards conquered the entire Inca Empire.The victory of the Spanish forces over the Inca empire, marked the beginning of widespread European colonial success across the Americas and Africa.How did such a small number of Spanish soldiers succeed in defeating the vastly more numerous Inca empire? Why did the Europeans succeed in colonizing the rest of world, and dominate in every aspect of prosperity and economic development, instead of the Americans or Africans?Most importantly, how does this explain why today, so few people reap the rewards and achieve success at the highest level?Lets dive in.Why Jamaican sprinters run so fastAt the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki, Finland, Jamaica was ranked 13th in the world, winning just two gold medals in 400-meter track event s.By the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, Jamaica dominated the sprint events in 100 and 200 meters a clean sweep, with Usain bolt winning three gold medals, and Veronica Campbell-Brown winning one gold medal in Womens 100-meter dash.At first glance, it may seem to be a coincidence that Jamaica, an island of only 2.8 million people, is the sprint factory of the world. And that a disproportionate number of its sprint champions would happen to be born in the parish of Trelawny, north of Jamaica.2But is itreally?Each year, Jamaica hosts a national high school track-and-field championship called Champs.Champs is screened live on national television, and extends over four days with the best athletes from 120 schools competing against one another.The event takes place in Kingstons 35,000-seat National Stadium, which often sells out, and has attendances much larger than those of professional track events.During Champs, scouts keep their eyes peeled for the next sprinting superstar of the world, a nd young athletes have the opportunity to change their fortunes, through scholarships or endorsements.Its the culmination of several years of sprinting under the Jamaican youth system.And much like the youth system of football in the United States, or soccer in Brazil, nearly every kid in Jamaica would have been made to sprint at some point in youth races, from as young as five years old.A child born in Jamaica would have the following stacked in their favor a school system that encourages high level sprint training and competition from a very young age, a warm climate that enables sprinting outdoors all year round, a culture that reveres and rewards sprinting, and high level facilities, coaching and equipment.By the time high school athletes participate in Champs, they have had over 10 years worth of practice in sprinting, and are miles ahead of their counterparts in other countries.So, is it that much of a surprise that Jamaican sprinters run much faster than their competitors, an d dominate sprint events on the professional level?This brings us one step closer to solving the puzzle of why so few people succeed in life and work.The power of locationBack to the battle of Cajamarca. Why did Pizarro succeed in capturing Atahuallpa and defeat the vastly more numerous Inca army?A basic answer is this Pizarro and his men had the military advantage of using steel swords, armor, guns, and horses, that Atahuallpas troops didnt.This distinct advantage enabled the Spanish soldiers to kill thousands of natives, who could only defend themselves with stones, slingshots and wooden clubs.But this answer is too simplistic. It doesnt answer the real question beneath the surface why did the Spaniards and Europeans first come to have these military advantages for colonization, instead of the natives in America or Africa?To answer this question lets have a look at the map of the worldDiagram of the major axes of the continents via Guns, Germs and Steel.Do you notice anything stra nge in the image above?The major axis of the Americas is north-south, likewise in Africa. But, in Eurasia, its east-west.In addition, Eurasia has the largest landmass of all three continents.In the best-selling book,Guns, Germs and Steel(Audiobook), historian and geographer, Jared Diamond, argues that these geographical differences in the continents, affected the diffusion of food production and inventions, and contributed to the significant differences in development of the Native Americans, Africans and Eurasians.For example, Eurasias east-west major axis, enabled the rapid spread of the newly invented wheel in 3,000 B.C., from Southwest Asia to the rest of Eurasia within a few centuries.Conversely, Americas north-south axis, prevented the spread of wheels invented in Mexico to the Andes region.Likewise, in Sub-Saharan Africa, the north-south axis and the major ecological barrier of the Saharan desert, prevented the spread of writing, which developed in Egypt in 3,000 B.C., and di d not spread independently to the rest of Africa until it was introduced by Arabs and Europeans, centuries later.Unlike Africa and the Americas, Eurasia had moderate ecological and geographical barriers.The east-west major axis permitted ease of movement of crops and livestock, which in turn enabled food production in abundance, a larger, healthier population, more competing societies, more inventors, and better innovations, than anywhere else in the world.The answer to the puzzling question of why Pizarro successfully led a tiny army of soldiers to defeat Atahuallpas Inca empire, is simple Pizarro was born and raised in Eurasia.He enjoyed the benefits of living in the most developed, prosperous and advanced society in the world, including the military innovations that helped his soldiers to conquer the Inca empire.In other words, if Pizarro and Atahuallpa, were interchanged in where they had been born, Atahuallpa would have defeated Pizarro.So, how does this all tie back to solve t he puzzle of why so few people achieve success in life and work?Long story short, successful people live in an optimal environment that enables them to develop the right skills, mindset and tools, required for success.And because success is subjective based on comparison to others, the optimal environment creates distinct competitive advantages that result in only a few people reaping most of the rewards.This is why Jamaican sprinters dominate sprint events, and Europeans achieved much more developmental success than Africans and Americans.Its not because of their distinctive human intellect, genetics or work ethic, ratherits because of their environment.Design your luckThere is a strange phenomenon sociologists have observed. Its called the Matthew Effect, named after the New Testament verse in the Gospel of Matthew3For unto everyone that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance. But from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. - Matthew 2529The Matt hew Effect suggests that people who have a distinctive head start or advantage over others by chance or luck, are the most likely to be given more opportunities that breed greater success. And vice versa.As weve discovered, that distinctive advantage is environment.There are very few people in the world lucky enough to live in the right place, at the right time, surrounded by the right people and resources, required to achieve the success they desire.This is why the top athletes tend to come from the same regions of the world. Its why Eurasia survived, conquered and dominated the world, and Americas or Africa didnt.And ultimately, its why so few people succeed and others dont.The romantic idea that success is a byproduct of hard work alone is too simplistic, and fails to take into account the role of environment.Environment is the hidden force that shapes our lives. Where you live and the people you surround yourself with, will ultimately determine the destiny of your life.But you d ont have to leave this to chance.You have the power to step outside of your comfort zone, and change your environment to work for you, instead of against you.You have the power to surround yourself with people who will support your goals and improve your odds of success, and distance yourself from those who dont.In the end, only you have the power to design your luck.Mayo Oshin writes atMayoOshin.Com, where he shares the best practical ideas based on proven science and the habits of highly successful people for stress-free productivity and improved mental performance.
