Education and Management • It is argued that schools, with their deep rooted educational values and academic professionalism, are not the kind of organizations that ought to be managed by a “linchpin head” or even a senior manager or leadership group- they ought to be selfmanaging communities with access to power dispersed equally among the staff. School as a Learning Organization • Schools should be places where participants continually expand their capacities. • Participants pursue common purposes with a collaborative commitment to routinely assessing the value of those purposes, modifying them when appropriate, and continually developing more effective and efficient ways to achieve those purposes. Managing Schools by Filipino Values The school administrator must be: • Makatao • Marunong makipagkapwa-tao - isa sa lahat -para sa lahat -pinakamahusay sa lahat • Marunong makisama • Marunong magtrabaho at magpatrabaho Management by Objectives Maangement by Objectives • Peter Druker • Management by objectives (MBO) is a systematic and organized approach that allows management to focus on achievable goals and to attain the best possible results from available resources. • It aims to increase organizational performance by aligning goals and subordinate objectives throughout the organization. Ideally, employees get strong input to identify their objectives, time lines for completion, etc. MBO includes ongoing tracking and feedback in the process to meet objectives MBO: Main Principles • The principle behind Management by Objectives (MBO) is to make sure that everybody within the organization has a clear understanding of the aims, or objectives, of that organization, as well as awareness of their own roles and responsibilities in achieving those aims. Where to use management by objectives • Knowledge based enterprises • Appropriate to build employees management and self-leadership and tap their creativity, tacit knowledge and initiative. MBO: Key Result Areas • • • • • • • • Marketing Innovation Human organizing Financial resources Physical resources Productivity Social responsiblity And profit requirements MBO: Principles • • • • • Cascading organizational goals and objectives Specific goals for each member Participative decision making Explicit time period Performance evaluation feedback Organizational Goals • There should not only be a clear sense of direction but also markers whereby we can assess progress from the broad to the more specific. • Goals • Targets • Success Criterias • Milestones Models of Organizational Behavior • The Classical Model • Emphasizes characteristics such as rationality, high job specialization, centralization, a command system, a tight hierarchy, strong vertical communication, tight control, rigid procedures and an autocratic approach. • Rational Systems: A Machine Model • Individuals can be programmed to be efficient machines. Workers are motivated by economics and by limited physiology, needed constant direction. Rational Systems Model • Frederick Taylor – “Time and Motion” studies. • Henri Fayol- administrative behavior consist of Planning, organizing, commanding, coordinating and controlling. • Luther Gulick- POSDCoRB - principle of homogeneity Rational Systems: Concepts and Propositions • • • • • Goals Division of Labor Specialization Standardization Formalization • • • • Span of Control Hierarchy Exception Principle Coordination • Humanistic Model • respect for the individual and other human values, job breadth, consultation, consensus, decentralization, loose project organization, flexible procedures, multidirectional communication, management by objectives and a participative approach. Natural Systems • Natural System • “the fundamental problem in organizations was developing and maintaining dynamic and harmonious relationships”. Mary Parker Follet • Natural-systems view focuses on similarities among social groups, thus driven primarily by the goal of basic survival-not goals of the institutions. • Individuals are never simply hired hands but bring along with them their heads and hearts. Concepts and Propositions • • • • • Survival Individual Needs Specialization Formalization • • • • • Informal Norms Hierarchy Span of Control Communication Informal Organization Comparison • Rational Systems • Structure without people • Formal • Structural arrangements • Organizational demands • Natural System • People without organization • Informal • Social groups trying to adapt • Human needs Open System: An Integration • A reaction to the unrealistic assumption that an organizational behavior can be isolated from external forces. • Organizations are not influenced only by the environment but also dependent on them. • “The opens systems model stresses reciprocal ties that bind and interrelate the organization with those elements that surround and penetrate it. Indeed, the environment is even seen to be the source of order itself”. Social System • The school is a system of social interaction; it is an organized whole comprising interacting personalities bound together in an organic relationship, interdependence of parts, clearly defined population, differentiation from its environment, a complex network of social relationships, and its own unique culture. Social Systems • • • • • • Key Elements of the Social Systems Model Structure Culture Politics Environment Outcomes Systems Model: Management Cybernetics • Stafford Beer • Has taken the metaphor of living organisms a stage further. Human physiological is applied to industrial organizations. It states that there are 5 tiers of the subsystems in the central human nervous system, which have their counterparts in the organization. The successful survival of the human is an evidence of the effectiveness of such a system. Diagnose in what respects they fall short and strengthening the subsystem that seem weekly developed. Management Cybernetics • • • examine the health or viability of an existing organization evaluate the proposals for new organization structures; and clarify the purpose of committees or roles. Management Cybernetics • The model can be used in three main ways: • examine the health or viability of an existing organization • evaluate the proposals for new organization structures; and • clarify the purpose of committees or roles. Management Cybernetics Decision Model Contingency Model • Organizations should be different from one another and from part to part. • Organizations left to themselves organization departments and individuals tend toward specialization, carving out a more distinctive niche for themselves. Effective Integration • • • • Each unit or individual can report to a manager who is made accountable for synergizing the two roles a third unit or individual seen by the other two as understanding their roles and standing as a midway between them, act as intermediary some kind of training or image exchange can be undertaken to help each unit understand more accurately why the other units behaves as it does. Interdepartmental groups or task force to resolve issues between departments.
