This might be a backhanded compliment.
It's just the right mix of compliment and insult to cause the right amount of confusion: Not enough to drive you to do something about it, but enough to have it inside your head rent-free for the rest of the week.
It also made me think. And it is a plausible future scenario. Enabling this behaviour could lead to said outcome.
Not bad at all. :)
Think harder. Middle management just sucks for everyone. Including middle management.
Nooo. But thinking hurts my head. :)
It doesn't have to be limbo for everyone. Imagine if the manager stepped up for the employees, set the frame to work in and the right aims to achieve, used the strengths of his or her employees, took responsibility... things could be (more) fulfilling for everyone.
Yes. However the upper management doesn't care about that. They look at some figures and then go on to make up whatever savings they want the middle managers to do without regard to whether those idea will improve the figures. It's a shot in the dark.
Now...if you're in a civilised country where union agreements are well in place , it's possible to require a coalition group, where middle management and employee representatives sit down to have a dialogue of what is best practice. More often than not this leads to improved figures, so the upper management don't ever need to dig into the details but can spend time doing their actual job of making long term strategies.
Yes, that way it pays off for employers to have union agreements. They just don't see it before they do it.
Yes, that too.
