Introduction: Considering the importance effective management for an organization to materialize the

inherent potential of an organization, the project will be focusing on different aspects of management in
running an organization successfully and how effective management contributes in helping an
organization to reach its true potential.
1. Explanation of the argument presented in the article:
The article presents us a very delicate issue relating to the management of an organization in a
very simple way. Considering that from the very beginning people within and outside the
organization, Google, has questioned the worth the managers bring to the table for the
organization, it experimented with flat organization by eliminating engineering managers to
create a friendly environment. The experiment had to stop with too many people directly
contacting Page, one of the founders of Google, with regular problems. The article clearly
demonstrates the importance of managers to create a conductive environment for the
organization to achieve the desired level of success.
2. Assumptions and limitations:
The readers while reading the article need to take into account the nature of the organization in
respect of which the article is presented. Considering that the article is about the engineers
managers of Google, the circumstances are quite difference which a manufacturing unit will
face. Considering the importance of allowing employees to express their imaginations to take
the form of reality, may well not be one of the objectives of different organizations in different
sectors.
3. Explain:
The author has mainly taken into account the followings while examining the issue:
The importance of communication of strategy between the employees at different
level.
The aspect of collaboration to create values for the organization.
The importance of managers to create an atmosphere conductive for work.
The importance of resolving personal conflicts.
4. Main
A careful analysis of the article provides us with enough insight into the challenges Google faced
while deciding on the structure of the organization to achieve the desired success. Considering
that within the organization there was view which was existed on the importance of managers,
not a very pleasant one for the mangers. The article has certainly helped the doubters, those
doubting the role and importance of managers in an organization, to clear the mind on the
necessity of managers to run the organization in an orderly manner. The article has spelled out
that the mangers have different roles to play in taking an organization towards the path of glory
through communication with employees, helping them in different situations, facilitating
collaborations, playing an important role in developing careers etc.
5. Learning objectives of business managers:
The business managers are the focal point of the article; it discusses the importance of business
managers in an organization and here specifically in Google. The managers have following
takeaways from the article:
Communication: One of the essential requirement to succeed as a manger is to communicate
with employees on strategies, business environment, things that are bothering them etc. hence,
it will be a prerequisite for a manager to discharge the responsibilities assigned on him.
Assisting: The managers will also learn the importance of assisting employees in prioritizing their
work according to the need of the organization.
Support: Business managers by supporting career development of employees will not only help
an organization to move ahead but will also keep the employees firmly loyal to the organization.
Goals: The successful manager will be the one who will comfortably align the goals of the
organization with that of the employees. The processes also need to be parallel to the
organizations needs which have to be taken are off by the manager.


Part B:
Question 1:
Management theory is different from other proven theories and do not have any permanent scientific
formula which will work in different situations in different kinds of organizations. The reason is simple
management is primarily responsible for carrying the operations of the business in an orderly manner to
achieve the desired outcome. Organizations work under different political, financial, economic
environment; hence, it is not possible to develop a universally accepted theory which will work under all
these different conditions and situations. Depending on the needs of the organization mangers will have
to find the suitable way to manage the operations of the business.
Question 2:
Maslows theory explains the human needs; from basic human needs to the needs which comes after
the fulfillment of basic needs. Considering the importance of basic necessity to live a dignified life,
mangers will encourage employees to carry out their work in best possible manner in order to earn the
livelihood. Needs are never ending once basic needs are satisfied employees will be concerned about
the safety needs; these are mainly relating to safe area to live in, availability of medical facilities,
assurance in retaining the job etc. Making friends, importance of love will also be felt by the employees
after the above, and then comes the need for respect and justice, wisdom.
Question 5:
Five search words or terms are following:
Motivational interviewing.
Impetus.
Thesis on employee behavior.
Peer review.
Inspiring employees.
Question 6:
Following journals will help in further examination:
1. Employees Motivation in organizations: An interactive literature review.
2. Peer review practices of psychological journals by Douglas P. Peters and Stephen J. Ceci.
Question 7:
1. Worker motivation is an individual and transactional process. (From Employees Motivation in
organizations: An interactive literature review).
2. The environment under which the employees works affect their psychology (from Peer
review practices of psychological journals by Douglas P. Peters and Stephen J. Ceci.)

Conclusion: During the compilation of the project we have understood the immense importance of
managers in operating the business of an organization. The project also introduced us with the Maslows
theory on management which recognizes the human needs exist at different levels and the role that
mangers play in aligning these needs with the objectives of an organization.
