I?d like some real interviews from magazines, newspapers, etc. I'd
like quotes from leaders of different management styles talking about
the superiority of their management styles. I?d like to hear the
leaders talk about they way they do things and why it is the right way
to manage. I?d like to hear them state the case for their way of
doing things.
I need a few colorful stories of five different management styles. I
have one management style for each Google Answers ticket. I need this
by Saturday April 23.
In the scheme I am using, there are four style components:
Decisive Commander
Analytical Planner
Creative Visionary
Collaborative Facilitator
I am targeting five combinations of these four styles. The second
term is the dominant style, the first is the backup. Thus, a
?Decisive Visionary? is mostly a Creative Visionary, but the second
big influence is Decisive Commander.
Analytical Planner ? These people are very thorough and go by the
motto, ?Prior planning prevents piss poor performance.? They gather
and analyze information (preferably objective information) before
making decisions. They let the data drive their decisions for the
most part. They like hierarchies and can get many different complex
functions to come together to create a unified and robust solution. |
