My Management Idea
By Sanda Tike
There is nothing more exacting than
Working together to accomplish a goal,
There is nothing more powerful than
Making the right decisions and achieving performance,
There is nothing more effective than
Managing your own time and getting things done,
But there is something more important
“BEING ALIVE.”
About Me
Management Joke
A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and
spotted a man below. He descended a bit more and shouted, “Excuse me, can
you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t
know where I am.”
The man below replied, “You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately
30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude
and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude.”
“You must be an engineer,” said the balloonist.
“I am,” replied the man, “How did you know?”
“Well,” answered the balloonist, “everything you told me is technically
correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact
is I am still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help so far.”
The man below responded, “You must be a manager.”
“I am,” replied the balloonist, “but how did you know?”
“Well,” said the man on the ground, “you don’t know where you are or where
you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of
hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep and you
expect me to solve your problem. The fact is, you are in exactly the same
position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it’s my fault.”
