Maturation Stages In Business Organizations: Management Development (cont.)
- Establish a management climate specifically conducive to management development and organize for management development.
- Line executives must be held individually accountable and receive recognition for developing subordinates. They must intimately involve themselves in development processes, as a consequence of accepting this as a prime responsibility.
- The staff function for management development must be appropriately located in the organization; the required professionally competent skills and facilities (with "psychological distance") must be provided.
- Establish required programs for appraisal, counseling and development; this specifically should include the training of superordinate executives in manager counseling and development processes.
