Management and how it has changed over the years

Good morning my friends and how are we doing this beautiful Saturday.It has been a wild ride for so many people that have been living through this economic roller coaster. 


Faith is a combination of thoughts and actions.

When you apply your faith in yourself, your faith in your fellow man, and your faith in God, the result is a positive course of action that when persistently followed will almost always lead to success. When you believe in your ideas and in your abilities, and you trust in the Infinite Intelligence of the universe, you know that your thoughts and deeds will ultimately lead to a successful conclusion. You cannot fail. 

Let us talk about management and how it has changed over the years. I have had many conversations with managers from different industries and I have to say the stories they have told me have made me cringe and laugh at the same time.



The job of a supervisor or manager is to create an environment that brings the best out of your employees. The best managers to be honest with you believe me the top managers above the lower level ones know who is good at their job and perhaps sometimes they will not admit to themselves for whatever selfish reasons they may have but who cares!! As long as you do your job well.

 These managers should utilize and let them solve their issues. You should allow your people to open up their minds and teach them how to find solutions on their own and once you allow them to do so they will flourish.





How  and when do you encourage people? When you are a true leader and I am not talking  about a manager, I am talking leader and leading. If you are a true leader then your job should be to assure your lower level managers and staff members that their energy is placed in the right direction to assist your organization  achieve the goals.


Today’s top level managers simply must absolutely be great leaders and the truth is that they are not most of them were placed in their positions because they have been with an organization for many years and well hello!! they hinder other to achieve.




What are true management skills simply put find a way to get the job done and sometimes you have to bypass the BS and red tape which means trying to make others feel important or make them feel useful although they are useless in the process of getting the job done!!!


How many of you out there have dealt with this kind of management COMMON BE HONEST with yourself!!!

Raising the bar is something many organizations must do regarding the standards work ethics that are accepted. Too many so called leaders  enable mediocrity.

I’ve seen many organizations and their leaders who believe they know and understand operations avoid trying to raise the bar on standards out of the fear of his or her inability  to teach or train their staff appropriately to rise to the new standards.

Leave me your comments.
