Management skills and workplace effectiveness

Management Skills

In the context of multiplying business models, designs and organizational cultures, a question is being posed relative to the sense of belonging to either of these models. The answer depends on several features, such as the characteristics of each organizational culture, the leadership style or one's personal preferences. From a personal viewpoint, I would have to argue that the most adequate organizational culture is the fourth one, generically labeled as "The Academy."

"The Academy" organizational culture is appealing due to its numerous characteristics. It places an increased emphasis on people and strives to place them at the core of long-term, solid and fruitful relationships. This attention to the human resource is obvious at many other levels however, the most important of them being the offering of training programs. Other organizational cultures perceive training efforts as the means by which the economic entity increases its skills and abilities, and as such its chances of successful outcomes. "The Academy" culture however perceives training as a benefit to the employees, and offers it as a means of supporting the professional formation of its workforce, increasing their self-esteem and confidence and motivating them.
