Quotes from the book "Reflections on Management" by Yitzhak Adizes

The result producer starts the execution process and provides the result.

The rule is: if the choices you make increase your self-respect and self-confidence, then do so. If it lowers them, look for alternatives.

The Dutch historian Johan Huizinga viewed history as a game of rules.

Role (A) examines working approaches, analyzes successes and programs their repeatability. This moves the organization up the learning curve so that it can capitalize on its collective memory and experience. To fulfill role (A), managers must be scrupulous and straight-thinking people.

What is the difference between playing poker and achieving results in a meeting? Why do so many people hate management by committee meetings?
And the difference is in the rules of conduct.

To do right choice, all four PAEI types must participate in the meeting. People with certain styles tend to gravitate towards certain organizational rules. This makes the process of making sense of the meeting like a patchwork quilt.

Thus, even before the founder transfers the right to creativity and entrepreneurship, he must stop being the main initiator, making all decisions, and become an integrator of more high level. Its role will be to unite those who will henceforth carry out integration.

If you want to rejuvenate a company, make it more responsible and influenced by its franchise - customers and customers. Integrate the organization with those it serves. Today's integration makes tomorrow's entrepreneurship possible. It is the balance between integration and entrepreneurship, synchronicity and risk taking, that is the reason for long-term growth. This allows the company to flourish.

From the author
In a sense, the title of this book is both true and false. It is correct in the sense that these are my "thoughts" that came to mind directly in connection with some event, news headline or conversation on a random topic. These are actually fleeting thoughts, written down at a certain point in time and progressively developed to a logical conclusion. That's why I call them reflections.

However, I must confess that for more than forty years I have been constantly thinking about the topic of management. I have done research and written books on the subject, consulted with organizations, private and public, and solved specific, very real problems related to the concepts and problems of management. I have woken up in the middle of the night and lay awake thinking about big and small ideas and theories about running organizations.

The results can be found in many of my books and articles. So when I write eight hundred to a thousand words, addressing an unexpected idea or a random newspaper headline, I call it thinking, even though there is extensive research, hands-on consulting experience, and books I have written behind it.

Who is this book for?
For all managers and leaders.

The essence of the theory is that any company, like any living organism, is going through different stages of development: birth, childhood, adolescence, etc. The company is going through growing pains and all the problems that any living organism faces during the period The Adizes theory is a kind of elixir of eternal youth for a corporation.

Another well-known theory of Adizes, explaining the typologies of leaders, is described in the book "How to overcome management crises". According to Dr. Adizes, ideal leader does not exist. According to his PAEI model, to achieve effectiveness, a manager needs four qualities: P - producer of results (producer), A - administrator (administrator), E - entrepreneur (entrepreneur), I - integrator (integrator). All this cannot be combined in one person, so it is necessary to have several strong managers at the helm of the corporation.
