In today’s dynamic technological driven ever-evolving world, it is important for companies and organizations to change their management styles often, for them to position themselves better to be able to attract the right stream of customers and enhance their operations. Over the years, management theories have changed to adapt to these changing times. This is quite evident from Google current management philosophy that signals a change in how the company’s operations are managed. Google Company believes that the challenges encountered at work should be fun, and these challenges can be overcome when the employees are provided with the necessary tools to tackle them. When the employees are given the necessary tools required for their individual’s accomplishments, they are able to work better and more efficiently contributing positively to the overall company’s success (Carpenter, Bauer, & Erdogan, 2010).
This management philosophy can effectively work in my organization, and I think it will be of great benefit to the company. It is crucial to provide every employee with the necessary tools required for their daily operations as this enhances their efficiency at the workplace. Employees should not only be provided with the relevant tools but also with the relevant skills for them to perform the company’s operations efficiently. This can be achieved through employee training especially in their areas of weakness identified in the performance appraisal process (Stephen, 2012). As a manager, I will feel comfortable managing employees in this type of an environment because as a leader, I have a responsibility for setting the right tone of how things will be done in the organization. By adopting the management practice, it will be possible to attract and retain the best talent in the organization that will further enhance the company’s success.
