TYPES OF MANAGEMENT

SUMMARY OF THE CLASS:
We saw the different types of management that exist.
Manager as a hero: including the "super power of choice", supposily never makes mistakes in the organization and the manager always gives the money.
Absolute power makes absolute dictators: managers have to take this into consideration because it could crate problems inside the organizations.
Manager as a sex symbol: it happens when some people see that, "power is sexy".
Sacred cows: Do everything they want, and are arrogant.
Wise boss: everyone in the organization thinks hat the boss is the most wisdom person in the world and in the company, but this is not true all the time, this happens when there is a gap or distance between the employee and the boss.
In class there were two presentations: Traditional managen\ment in Brazil was about the types of management that could be authocrathic (unilateral decision, focused on control), the otherone was permissive that is abot freedom or a combination of both types.

WHAT IS A MANAGER TODAY AND WHAT DO YOU THINK A MANAGER SHOULD BE?
I think that today it depends on the type of person (belives, values, behaviour) in every company you can find a lot of types of managers there are permissive ones or autocrathic ones, it depends on the politics of the company; but in my opinion a manager should be a combination of both, a person who let the workers express their ideas and making them feel an importan part of the company but a manager should demonstrate that he is the person with power and should claim respect because it's a high authority in the organization.
