Management … a saga
By RajSekhar Mandal

Thirty thousand years ago human beings came to earth, twenty thousand years ago nothing really changed. Ten thousand years ago agriculture started. Five hundred years ago science and technology began .two hundred and fifty years ago socialism and communism developed, and in the last hundred years management developed …irks, Sharu Ragnekar at a seminar" better management" recently held at the National Institute of Agricultural Extension Management, MANAGE Hyderabad. In the 21st century squeezing and pressuring workers cannot achieve productivity. The mantra in the new era for success is quality and productivity .In order to achieve this manager should navigate like a fish against the currents and not sway along like a cork. Managers are always criticized by owners as well as by laborers and workers; It is noteworthy that results are not produced by skills but by wills. Emphasis to stick to Time Discipline, Method Discipline and Motivation Discipline should be made as these are the three work related problems for productivity. Team building requires handling its three "E" problems, like Ego, Envy and Expectation. In an organization existence sense of Mission, sense of Action, and sense of loyalty is of prime importance. Sense of mission gives Morale, sense of action gives feeling of urgency and sense of loyalty gives fearing to hurt somebody. The Deepsikha Managers, the managers of 21st century should imbibe on them involvement, commitment and ownership. They should have freedom to interact, sense of belongingness and sense of responsibility. Belief in what he sees and what has been done or achieved should take precedence rather than pondering over what would be done. The quest for managerial excellence should be the only motto than trying to impart knowledge in him.
