Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The War Its Practical Lessons to Democracy: A Paper Read Before the National Municipal League at a Conference Held in Detroit, November 22, 1917 While this address deals with problems of public business, the underlying principles discussed are those which should be kept constantly in mind, both by the management and those who benefit by the efficient management of enterprise. In fact, a standard textbook on the subject of "Management" could be written around what, in this, are called the five essentials of success in the struggle of Democracy to survive, namely: - A strong, intelligent leadership. A well-disciplined line organization. A well-trained staff organization. A regularly constituted forum for independent inquiry and discussion of results and proposals, and for the determination of questions of policy. A prompt and effective means of electoral control. Every competitor of business is in a struggle to survive. We do not call it war, but failure to compete means that it would be wiped out as surely as would France by the success of Prussian Autocracy. Substitute the owner or stock-holder for elector and the public, and the foregoing may be accepted as the five essentials of the successful management of a great industry or any number of them.
