[Column] Why Management Fails to Succeed?

I would like to introduce a column article.

Did you learn the necessary leadership and management skills to run an organization from your school teachers during your compulsory education? The answer should be NO. This is because such skills are not included in Japan's compulsory education curriculum. As a result, when you enter society and take on that role, you experience being a leader for the first time in a real-world setting. Large companies prepare for promotions by undergoing various training programs. However, small and medium-sized enterprises do not have that luxury. It is not because you, as a leader, lack the ability. It is simply because you are trying to implement something you have never experienced before. In such situations, there are specific issues that arise for playing managers: ■ Neglecting Parenting Syndrome There is a leader, but the focus is primarily on player duties, and there is no movement towards team management, leaving the team adrift. ■ Too Free-Spirited Syndrome There is no establishment of minimum rules for team operations, and members are acting freely. Additionally, there are many areas where the company's policies and departmental policies are not clearly defined, resulting in a lack of a unifying framework for awareness.
