In the reading two different types
of goals as operative goals and official goals are discussed with examples.
While according to the readings there are also conflicts in the personal goals
and primary goals of the organizations. in the societal examples the example of
a doctor is also discussed as if he reports that a sick person is not sick but
healthy what will be consequences the sick person can face and if reports a
well and healthy person as sick, how the claim of the doctor will influence the
life of the patient (KERR 1975).
Other than all that general organizational examples are also elaborated as
concerning with orphans institutes, universities, ecology and evaluation of
training. In another reading paper information regarding the Pygmalion in management
is discussed in detail. Reading also covers the concepts as how the performance
of the employees can be improved and how organizations can maximize their
profitability and performance efficiency (Livingston 2003).
Affect of Management
The topic also provide
information about the efficient ways of management and the readings are
concerned with management ways and goals setting for the organizations. Thus
topic and readings both can influence the real managers working in the
organization by bringing change in their attitude towards employees and goals
setting. Through topic and readings managers can also understand that through
what ways they can bring motivation in their employees.
Reflection of Management
I learned new knowledge by working
on this assignment, and understanding the topic and readings. As a manager in the future I will use these
strategies and information in the workplace to bring motivation in my employees
as I will select the best ways of motivation by offering rewards and giving
appreciation on showing good performance. I will bring efficiency in the
overall organization by hiring young talent.
