[QUOTE="soberups, post: 817195, member: 14668"] We have a[B][I] lot[/I][/B] of good managers...who have been turned into [B][I]bad[/I][/B] managers by the people above them. I see countless examples every day of management people making monumentally stupid decisions. Is it because they are stupid? No...its because they are [I]scared[/I]. Operations management is a metrics-obsessed cult of fear. Independent thinking and creative problem solving are forbidden, and the only way to survive is to generate whatever metric happens to be the current flavor of the week no matter how counterproductive it might actually be. Operations is the place where the square peg of Corporate's impossible expectations meets the round hole of reality and the only tool that management has is a hammer. And if they dont use it on us, somebody upstairs will use it on them. [/QUOTE]
