Managerial Style & Financial Fiasco !!

[Santosh]

Though theory states about different managerial styles like AUTHORITATIVE , COERCIVE ,DEMOCRATIC and so on . But fact boils down to how "managed employees" look at you as a boss.

This is further high lighted by recent confession by many managers in financial industry that they were not aware that trouble was brewing .

This BBC article throws light on why !

So mere 7% of employees , who think that the boss is "kind" , reported that the managers listened to them. Further research indicated that "kind" bosses gets superior results.

This new generation Y, ( not only in US ,but in other part of world too ) is seeking change in managerial styles. Article further stresses that "Kind" bosses are not doormats , but like respectful knowledgeable parents with integrity.

So the qualities required are different than what the contemporary textbooks are conveying.

I agree that the generation "Y" is seeking new management styles. All lazy people want easy bosses that do not require performance. Why not simply not hire them, hire people who actually come to work and perform. Someone who says; "I will not perform my best until you kiss my rear-end" ought to be told, "Fine, once you give us your best performance, we will considering paying you, until them, we will be nice, you work for free!"
