“Management”
It’s been used as a noun and as a verb. Usually it’s that group of people who come up with new and unpopular policies (“Cell phone use is prohibited in this area…Management”). It’s parodied and scoffed at on television shows. Most of the time, managers are depicted as brown-nosing morons who mindlessly create and get caught up in bureaucracy.
We beg to disagree!
As a coalition of management and organizational development experts, we’ve spent our lives coaching and consulting with managers in all types and sizes of organizations.
