In any business, it is important that managers should be effective. They must be able to achieve their objectives, and to 'get the right things done'. For most executives, being effective is easier said than done. The problem is that there are so many pressures on managers, reducing their efficiency. For one thing, their work is fragmented. Most days, they are doing a number of tasks, some fairly trivial, others highly important. They find that they do not have enough time to devote to the really important jobs. Besides, sometimes they are under such pressure that they forget which jobs are important.

The manager also faces another difficulty. He finds that other people take up a lot of his time, so that he has little time of his own. Just as he is ready to tackle that report, a customer will ring up unexpectedly. No sooner has he hung up than Bill, from Sales, drops by his office for a chat. He works on the report for. a few minutes,, then the Personnel Manager calls him. Could he interview someone tomorrow afternoon? And so it goes on. The manager must constantly respond to the' demands that others make on his time.

Things do not get better as he climbs higher in the organization. In fact, they get worse. The higher he goes; the more demands will be made upon his time.

Before being able to control his time, the manager must find out how he is actually using it. He must know where it goes. The best way to do this is to record how he uses time. The usual method is to log the tasks he performs. Either he or his secretary keeps an exact record of how he spends his working day, or week. The manager should not rely on memory when logging time. Not many executives can remember, at the end of the day, all the things they did during the day - all the telephone calls, chats, interruptions, work on the computer, letter-writing and so on. Оne way of logging time is to note down all the activities and indicate how long they took. Thus the log of an executive could look something like this:

This logging of time should be done once or twice a year. It shows the executive how he actually spends his time at work-not how he thinks he spends it.

Once the manager has an accurate picture of how he uses time, he can analyse the time log. This will help him to re-think and re-plan his word schedule.

As a result of this analysis the effective manager will start getting rid of unproductive, time-wasting activities.

He will also get rid of some activities which can be done just as well by someone else. Knowing how to delegate is an essential skill of a manager. This does not mean, of course, that he will be forever ‘passing the busk’ to subordinates! But, where possible, he will try to create more time so that he can attend to important tasks.

Having recorded and analysed time, he can now re-shape his schedule. It is up to him how he does this.

Peter Drucker, the American expert on management, believes that effective executives work systematically to manage time. They must acquire this ‘habit of mind’, this ability to use time efficiently.

1 These days with inexpensive air travel, mobile phones, and Internet, teenagers see the world as a smaller plan than it appeared to their grandparents. Of these innovation the Internet appears to be the most potential for global influence, and which will change lives the most.

2 For example, up until recently friendships developed over a lifetime but that has now changed. People often made friends locally at school and continued those friendships into adulthoоd but many young people today find the majority of their friendships over the Internet. This is not restricted to teenager Paula Sen, who has just turned 30, says: ‘I’ve met most of my friends over the Internet, through common interest forums. I couldn’t live without the Internet. It’s my lifeline.’

3 The Internet has also greatly influenced how people buy and sell goods. International Internet shopping is now common, with people buying all sorts of goods, from sites such as Amazon, the most successful online retail site. The international auction site eBay allows millions of participant to buy from and sell to strangers, setting their own prices. But beware-there are as many unscrupulous salespeople online as on the high street.

4 One of the Internet’s greatest success stories is Wikipedia the free online encyclopedia, which is compiled and updated by its users. It carries far more content than any other encyclopedia and is a great starting point for research but remember to double-check important facts as it does contain errors. If you don’t have time to check your facts, consider purchasing a reliable online encyclopedia such the Encyclopedia Britannica. The other major information resource on the Internet is Google, a search engine which finds and ranks web pages according to the number of line made to them.

5 Probably the biggest impact that the Internet has had is the way in which it has influenced social networking. The most frequently ‘googled’ word in the world recently was Bebo-the social networking site-followed by MySpace. People can meet new friends through sites like these, they can renew old acquaintances through sites like Friends Reunited and they can also play games with each other in virtual worlds such as Second Life. This Internet-based, three-dimensional virtual world is ‘inhabited’ by more than 6,6 million residents from around the world, and global companies such as Adidas and Toyota even have outlets there.

6 It’s now much easier to share experiences with others too. Sites such as YouTube allow people to upload and share videos, with unlikely clips becoming huge hits and a number of figures becoming Internet phenomena. Many people remember watching ‘sabre boy’ wielding an imaginary light-sabre, and laughing out loud at his antics.

7 Much of the power of the Internet lies in the fact that people are developing new ways to be creative and innovative, combining ideas and skills without an organization or hierarchy. No one is in overall control. Collective creativity and collaboration are the key ideas. But even more powerful than this is its power to solve crimes, help change the world through giving to charities on sites like justgiving.com or find missing individuals: one website for a missing child was visited by over 40 million people within days of its being set up.

Is globalization a good thing?

1. Globalization is definitely about progress. It leads to better products, which are more cost effective to produce and therefore cheaper for everyone. It’s about consumer choice. Globalization also connects people by means of communication and offers them new opportunities for travel, work and education. It means a faster rate of development for the whole world. Many poorer countries have benefited from investment as a result of globalization.

2 . The global economy simply means sweatshops in poor countries so that rich countries can have cheap goods. There is a lot of inequality involved in globalization and the desire for cheaper products. It also leads to the destruction of natural resources. Globalization benefits the rich nations, who control prices, who influence the economies of poor countries and cause populations to mirage in order to try and improve their lives.

3. Globalization is just another of aspect of evolution. It is a new name for an old process. Surely the coming of the railways and industrialization hundreds of years ago was globalization. It enables products to be produced wherever it is most efficient to do so. I think it means great social and economic progress for developing countries. I don’t understand this anti-globalization movement and feeling. Surely free markets and the free movement of people, goods and service are beneficial to economies all over the world?

4. Globalization’s only good for those who are already economically strong. It’s the big multinational companies who really benefit, and it worries me that sometimes they seem to have more power and influence over our lives that elected governments. Some of them are actuality richer that whole countries, which must be a bad thing.

Organizational culture

Organizational culture is a set of assumptions, believes, values and norms, which are accepted by all members of the organization. Some important components of organizational culture are: the system of seniority, the style of conflict resolution, the system of communication, the person’s place in an organization, the company’s traditions and rituals. It’s obvious that according to these components there can be a lot of types of the organizational cultures. Let’s consider a few of them.

The first type is the family culture. It is highly personal with close face-to-face relationships. This organizational culture is very hierarchical. The boss is usually quite authoritarian; he is like the carrying father for all workers. The other type of organizational culture is the Eifel tower culture. It also has a steep hierarchy. Everybody knows where their responsibilities begin and end. As opposed to the family culture this culture is very impersonal. Authority depends on the person’s position in the hierarchy. Things are different in the company with the guided missile culture. It is quite egalitarian, because most of the time people work in teams on specific projects and each member is an expert in his or her own way. This culture as the Eifel tower one is impersonal. The last organizational culture I’m going to tell about is the Incubator culture. It’s very personal and egalitarian with almost no structure at all. For the people who work in the company with this type of culture it’s not really a job, it’s more a way of life. Self-expression and self-fulfillment are very important here.

Within the companies with different types of organizational culture there are different rules of behavior. For example, forms of address vary from very formal, when everyone addresses each other with their title and surname, to very informal, when people at all levels use first names. Concerning working space companies differentiate, too. Somewhere everyone has his or her own office; in other organizations people have their workstations in an open-plan area. Somewhere people even have to ‘hot-desk’ and take whatever working space is available at the moment. Similarly different organizations have different dress-codes: from jackets and ties to smart casual style; different rules of parking: from having person’s own reserved parking space to parking on ‘first-come-first-served’ basis; different reward systems: from a guaranteed basic salary to commission only. Also there are usually some rules about using telephones and the Internet, about timekeeping and overtime and about accepting gifts at work. But whatever rules the organization has, it’s supposed to be socially responsible.

Social responsibility of business observes the norms and rules which aren’t clearly established by the government, but which have an influence on the quality of people’s life. There are three main concepts of the socially responsible business. They are the concepts of corporative egoism, corporative altruism and of enlightened self-interest. I want to tell about it at greater length. This concept insists that socially responsible business is even more profitable in the long term than the business which is concentrated only on increasing current profits at any cost. Spending money on social and philanthropic programs, the organization makes its future and its profits more stable. I think it’s a very good point especially as it can be an incentive for all businesses to be socially responsible.
