Dual Management Reporting Lines

Sumanthra Ghoshal wrote that the functional and geographic reporting lines of managers in an organizational structure resulted in ''conflict and confusion''. In complex organizational settings, ''separated by barriers of distance, language, time and culture, managers find it virtually impossible to clarify the confusion and resolve the conflicts.'' Ghoshal wrote the paper jointly with Christopher Bartlet in 1990. The duo emphasized that companies needed to modify their organizational values and the systems of information channels in the organization before they commence the redesign of the reporting lines. Ghoshal, an Indian, had doctorates from Harvard and MIT, and started his career in Indian Oil. He also worked at INSEAD and the London Business School. He died at the age of 55.

A manipulated Democracy

Image
  Peaceful change and superior honesty are two among the advantages of democracy. However, the alteration of the truth brings about disillusionment among the people and the continuous worrisome bloodshed of human lives is reflecting negatively on governance. All governments from time immemorial have been characterized by the twin evils of corruption and embezzlement of public funds. In addition, laws are hurriedly enacted for the preservation of the rot in the system. In dictatorships, the ruling party takes the position of the state, and ensures that the profession of a particular set of political opinions becomes the first qualification for those in the Civil and Public Service, rather than competence and honesty. However, although governments are liable, there are weapons to fight it in a democracy which is suppressed in dictatorship's form is labeled Glieshaltung, unifying the state. This form of corruption is not removed by dictatorships, but remodeled. Democratic governments,...

Douglas McGregor

Image
Douglas McGregor, a social psychologist of Harvard and MIT fame, authored The Human Side of Enterprise in 1960. The book outlines two distinct styles of management. Theory X AND Theory Y. Theory X promotes an authoritarian management style, that emphasizes that 'management' must counteract an inherent human tendency to avoid work'. Theory Y promotes the idea that 'people will exercise self-direction and self-control in the achievement of organizational objectives to the degree that they are committed to those objectives.'' McGregor believed that Theory Y had the capacity to motivate human beings to the highest level of achievement. He, therefore, recommended Theory Y for adoption by companies.
