3 M's of Management

 

Management is rewarding and difficult. 

 

Management is the 3Ms Motivation, manipulation and method.

Motivation is the most important and anyone that can motivate a workforce can earn their weight in gold.

For example on a field trip the students were separated into two groups.

One group told to find a 4 leafed clover.

the other group told to find clovers more than 3 leafed.

the first group returned with one 4 leafed clover

the other group returned with a bucket full of clovers all more than 3 leafed

 

Management 3 M's used to tie a shoe lace

 

Motivation – obviously if you constantly trip over the lace you will be inclined to retie it, especially if you are about to carry a heavy pan of boiling oil.

 

Manipulation. How to make tying the shoe lace easier, pull a chair across to rest on or sit down.

 

Method (the one all management course deal with) what knot to tie, bow, double bow for safety etc

 

management in a nutshell, and the real reason why shoes are slip on or Velcro fastening.
