Six Simple Rules de Yves Morieux

Six Simple Rules

Autor Yves Morieux, Peter Tollman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – apr 2014

Apreciem în mod deosebit abordarea pragmatică pe care Six Simple Rules o aduce în peisajul literaturii de management, oferind un set de instrumente bazat pe cadre de analiză sociologică și șabloane de cooperare interdepartamentală. Autorii, Yves Morieux și Peter Tollman, nu se rezumă la teorie, ci propun soluții concrete pentru a demonta „labirintul organizațional” care sufocă productivitatea modernă. Notăm cu interes faptul că, în timp ce complexitatea afacerilor a crescut de șase ori în ultimele decenii, structurile interne au devenit de 35 de ori mai complicate, generând blocaje masive în inovație. Merită menționat că această lucrare publicată de Harvard Business Review se distinge prin rigoarea datelor colectate de Boston Consulting Group din peste 500 de organizații globale. Abordarea diferă de Managing Complexity in Organizations de Michael R. Lissack prin faptul că este mai puțin abstractă și mult mai aplicabilă; în loc să exploreze metafore ale sistemelor complexe, Morieux și Tollman oferă reguli de execuție care mizează pe autonomia și inteligența angajaților. De asemenea, spre deosebire de Simply Effective, care analizează efectele complexității, Six Simple Rules livrează un mecanism de intervenție directă pentru a elimina comitetele și sistemele redundante. Structura narativă a cărții ghidează cititorul prin studii de caz reale unde simplificarea nu a însemnat reducerea ambițiilor, ci optimizarea cooperării. Tonul este unul ferm, orientat spre rezultate, demonstrând cum eliminarea „soluțiilor soft” ineficiente, precum teambuilding-urile fără scop, în favoarea unor reguli clare de interdependență, poate revitaliza forța de muncă.

Descriere scurtă

New tools for managing complexity

Does your organization manage complexity by making things more complicated? If so, you are not alone.

According to The Boston Consulting Group’s fascinating Complexity Index, business complexity has increased sixfold during the past sixty years. And, all the while, organizational complicatedness—that is, the number of structures, processes, committees, decision-making forums, and systems—has increased by a whopping factor of thirty-five. In their attempt to respond to the increasingly complex performance requirements they face, company leaders have created an organizational labyrinth that makes it more and more difficult to improve productivity and to pursue innovation. It also disengages and demotivates the workforce.

Clearly it’s time for leaders to stop trying to manage complexity with their traditional tools and instead better leverage employees' intelligence. This book shows you how and explains the implications for designing and leading organizations.

The way to manage complexity, the authors argue, is neither with the hard solutions of another era nor with the soft solutions—such as team building and feel-good “people initiatives”—that often follow in their wake. Based on social sciences (notably economics, game theory, and organizational sociology) and The Boston Consulting Group’s work with more than five hundred companies in more than forty countries and in various industries, authors Yves Morieux and Peter Tollman recommend six simple rules to manage complexity without getting complicated.

Showing why the rules work and how to put them into practice, Morieux and Tollman give managers a much-needed tool to reinvigorate people in the face of seemingly endless complexity. Included are detailed examples from companies that have achieved a multiplicative effect on performance by using them.

It’s time to manage complexity better. Employ these six simple rules to foster autonomy and cooperation and to effectively handle business complexity. As a result, you will improve productivity, innovate more, reengage your workforce, and seize opportunities to create competitive advantage.
