Introduction
Over the last several years, management has taken on many new
and complex dimensions. Advancing technology, changing
values, and increasing competition have created new and exciting
possibilities for every company. Change continues at
an ever-increasing pace, and successful managers must be skilled
in facilitating change effectively to minimize disruptions in
the workplace and any negative impact on the organization.
The challenge facing management today is developing an
organization that can achieve tomorrow's goals while continuing
to meet the daily challenges of today's changing business
environment. To balance these organizational and economic
demands a manager needs a systematic, results-oriented approach
to organizing, managing, and motivating their people.
Today's management requires the skills to manage people to a
higher level of productivity and successful outcomes.
Every company and organization is forced to accomplish more with
less in this global business environment. Effective
managers are a key ingredient for increased profitability and
growth for organizations. To be effective and to do so
without sacrificing all of their personal lives, it's essential
for managers to continue their own growth and development.
The Management Development Process is designed to help
managers develop the skills needed to do more with less and be
able to aggressively accomplish organizational and personal
goals and objectives. As a result of this process,
managers understand why and how they can be essential to
achieving the organization's goals. This process makes
management development not only possible, but eminently
profitable. |
