Description
Manuscript by Charles Handy on approaches to organisation development for the future and employee enlightenment. Handy begins the manuscript discussing how his own upbringing and education experience taught him that all questions had already been answered, and how that was an incorrect model for training new minds. He then describes how new management groups must now go through different phases of training, specifically a process of forming, storming, and norming, and that, in order to keep employees stimulated, they should be given new challenges and problems to solve on a perpetual basis. Mistakes should therefore be allowed in order to encourage new growth for employees, and managers are essential to this process of continual employee improvement through trial and error, as they direct the innovation and change of an organization.
