Mc kinsey 7s model - strategic implementation- Manu Melwin Joymanumelwin
• McKinsey 7s model is a tool that analyzes firm’s organizational design by looking at 7 key internal elements: strategy, structure, systems, shared values, style, staff and skills, in order to identify if they are effectively aligned and allow organization to achieve its objectives.
The managerial grid model (1964) is a situational leadership model developed by Robert R. Blake and Jane Mouton. This model originally identified five different leadership styles based on the concern for people and the concern for production. The optimal leadership style in this model is based on Theory Y.

Strategic role of Human Resource ManagementISAAC Jayant
The role of Human Resource Management has been developing noticeably in recent years. Earlier human resource as the personal department performing administrative duties like record keeping, file maintenance etc. were all over now.Any organization that continues to utilize its HR function solely to perform these administrative duties doesn't understand the contributions that HR can make an organization’s performance.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. American Versus Japanese Manage
ment Model
Every country is different from other. There mana
gement, food, way of living and standards are all d
ifferent. In some countries government is very infl
uencing while in other they are not much bother.
Such two different countries are America and Japa
n.
They have different cultures and management syst
ems as a by-product of culture manifests unique c
haracteristics in both the countries.
4. 1. LONG TERM COMMITMENT
Japanese tends to favor the development of long term relationships an
d strategies over short-term gain.
They spend much more time up front with a potential customer or su
pplier before making a commitment unlike Americans which then al
lows Japanese to implement decisions much faster after a decision is
made.
Moreover, in down times Japanese companies avoid layoffs and contr
act terminations contrary to Americans.
5. 2. TRAINING AND EDUCATION
On the Job Training is an American ideology.
Communication Plaza Concept—Though this is fading in Japan, employee
s meet with the executive informally over lunch or dinner to listen to each ot
her.
6. 3. GET-IN-TOUCH, LEARNING
FROM FACTS
- Japanese mix with employees and customers:
Japanese engineers, e.g., go to the factories, and don’t wear distinguishing ja
ckets or hard-hats. An insight in Japanese culture…Japanese neighborhoods
are less stratified in terms of economic class. CEOs may live next door to en
gineers and factory workers where as most Americans would not consider liv
ening next to a subordinate.
- Learn from competitor:
Americans are creative, but would be smart to do more copying.
Japanese are world class at copying and improving upon an idea, but would b
e smart to develop their creativity.
7. 4. EFFORT EVALUATION
- Process versus Results:
This seems to be the key difference between Americans and Japanese.
Americans are more results oriented while Japanese focus on process im
provements.
Once they learn how to do something, they work on small improvements—th
ey evaluate effort not results. Because Americans are process averse, they de
pend on manuals to tell what the results should be.
The down side of the process focus is to kill creativity. Overall, the two cultu
res should learn from each other, and become more like each other. Neither c
ompletely process nor completely results focused.
8. 5. CUSTOMER FIRST AND S
HAREHOLDER LAST
The priority order of customers and suppliers is different for U.S. and Japanese
businesses:
America
1. Shareholder
2. Customer
3. Employee
Japan
1. Customer
2. Employee
3. Supplier
4. Community
5. Country
6. Shareholder
Japanese firm is organized for the employee. It is a more human orientation
9. 6. TEAM WORK
The Japanese and Americans see two different meanings behind these words.
In Japan team work means to help others, here it means functional maximizat
ion, that is to improve results.
This leads to a difference in the roles on the team. In Japan the team leader is
always asking team members to help more, here the team leader is responsibl
e for results.
Americans are more inclined towards individual tasks performance.
10. 7. QUALITY FIRST, COST LAST
This is the proper ranking of quality in the Japanese organization:
1. Quality
2. Quality
3. Quality
4. Cost
Profit is the result of the pursuit of quality—as quality improves, costs go d
own.
Quality includes products, services, machines, layout, policy, planning and
organization.
11. 8. LEARN FROM THE BEST
Always look at someone better. The problem is when you get to the top, you
have to become more creative—this is Japan’s challenge
Short comings of Japans practices are:
Lack of Decisiveness: they are not transparent. Decisions sometimes take to
o long and they loose their timing.
Individual Ability Ignored: miss creative opportunities.
Miss Strategic Opportunities: too much delay and time.
12. COMPARATIVE MANAGEMEN

nies in world markets,
Researchers have paid a special attention t

14. MODEL OF JAPANESE MANAG
EMENT
Hatvany and Pucik (1981) offer a model of Japanese ma
nagement in which they define three interrelated strategi
es:
The authors assert that these general strategies are transl
ated into specific management techniques including
Job rotation and slow promotion;
Evaluation of attributes and behavior;
Emphasis on work groups;
Open communication;
Consultative decision making; and concern for employe
e.
15. SEVEN MAJOR CHARACTERIS
TICS OF JAPANESE ORGANIZA
TIONS
Lifetime employment,
Slow evaluation and promotion of employe
es,
Non-specialized career paths,
Implicit control mechanism,
Collective decision making,
Collective responsibility,
And Holistic concern (building a complete r
elationship between employer and employe
e, including concerning with employee's no
n-work, personal and family, matters).

17. Pre Theory Z
Abraham Maslow (1908–1970)
– Identified sets of basic human needs and suggested tha
t they could be arranged in a hierarchy based on their i
mportance to the individual.
Douglas McGregor (1906–1964)
– Developed the Theory X
(traditional—negative—management approach) and
Theory Y (positive management approach) to workers an
d work motivation.
18. Theory Z (Modified American
Management)
Theory Z How American Business Can Meet the J
apanese Challenge (Ouchi:1981)
Theory Z workers:
– Ouchi explains that the employees must be very
knowledgeable about the various issues of the c
ompany, as well as possessing the competence t
o make those decisions.
– He also points out; however, that management s
ometimes has a tendency to underestimate the a
bility of the workers to effectively contribute to
the decision making process
19. Implications of these types of theories f
or leaders
Modern implications for companies using these theori
es have shown:
An improvement of people skills,.
Empowering their employees.
Stimulating change.
Helping employees balance work with life conflicts.
Improving ethical behavior.
Improvements in turnover rates.
Productivity, effectiveness.
Efficiency.
Organizational behavior
Job satisfaction
20. CONCLUSION
Douglas McGregor’s Theory X and Y, and William Ouchi’s Theory Z have a
ll proven to be useful in the management field.
Many companies have successfully integrated similar economic and human p
rinciples in a management style from Theory’s Y and Z.
Theory’s Y and Z have both shown to be quite successful framework for Am
erican companies. Theory X is not obsolete.
The results of an empirical test of the model show that American manageme
nt style is different from the Japanese.
The variability between two countries lies among the all six managerial dim
ensions as well.
While American managers emphasize supervisory style, decision making, an
d control mechanism,
The Japanese are more concerned with communication process, interdepartm
ental relations, and paternalistic approach.
