Maggiori informazioni sul libro
If you're considering cutting midlevel managers in today's work environment, reconsider. The term "middle manager" harks back to an industrial era where bureaucracy prevailed, leading to these roles being undervalued and often seen as expendable. This outdated view has permeated the identity of the managers themselves, but it must change to meet future demands. In Power to the Middle, McKinsey experts Bill Schaninger, Bryan Hancock, and Emily Field advocate for a reimagined role for middle managers. Positioned close to the ground yet connected to company strategy, they are essential in navigating rapid change and shaping the future of work. The authors highlight how, amid a competitive talent landscape, managers are crucial for attracting and retaining top talent through strong interpersonal skills. They possess the insights needed to lead realignments amid digital disruption and must evolve from merely enforcing rules to challenging them, acting as a buffer against ineffective policies. Importantly, good managers should not be promoted out of their roles; instead, their titles and compensation should reflect their value, enabling career advancement within their positions. With engaging stories and innovative research, this work presents a transformative model for hiring, training, and rewarding managers, the true heart of any organization.
