Articles: Time Pass | The Management Tree Un-plugged - Prof. 00782 Maverick

Is your office management structured like a tree? Find out why is it so.
It is made almost entirely of wood. Parts of it can be dead for years before they drop off. If a branch falls off, most of the parasites move back to the main structure.
It takes years to react to any environmental change. If not pruned regularly it will not bear much fruit. Small pieces which are chopped off often grow again in a few years.
It can be fired, but usually needs lots of paper to get it going.
From the top one can see for miles in all directions, except vertically downward.
Anything heavy dropped from the top reaches the bottom quickly; the intervening layers merely delay it slightly.
Parts of it can be used to make boards (of varying thickness) but unless properly seasoned the quality will be poor.
It bends easily in light winds but in storms it is rarely flexible enough to avoid damage.
A man falling from the top can grab a lower branch, but a man falling from lower levels goes straight to the ground.
One can move from tree to tree without touching the ground.
Eventually one can reach a point at which one has no knowledge of the ground below.
Monkeys can get to the top with remarkable speed!
