Managers - Understanding Management (Theory and Approaches)Seta Wicaksana
Average managers play checkers, while great managers play chess. The difference? In checkers, all the pieces are uniform and move in the same way; they are interchangeable. You need to plan and coordinate their movements, certainly, but they all move at the same pace, on parallel paths. In chess, each type of piece moves in a different way, and you can’t play if you don’t know how each piece moves. More important, you won’t win if you don’t think carefully about how you move the pieces.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
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.

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

21. Management helps in achieving
group goals
• It arranges the factors of production, assembles and organizes
the resources, integrates the resources in effective manner to
achieve goals.
• It directs group efforts towards achievement of pre-determined
goals.
• By defining objective of organization clearly there would be no
wastage of time, money and effort. Management converts
disorganized resources of men, machines, money etc. into
useful enterprise.
22. Increase efficiency
• Management utilizes all the physical & human resources
productively.
• A manager increase the efficiency through the optimum
utilization of all the resources such as man money material
machine.
• Management improves efficiency by minimizing the wastage
of resources that is time, money and effort. It helps in
optimum utilization of all the resources in an organisation by
coordinating all the activities performed by individual in the
achievement of common goal.
23. Creates dynamic organisation
• Every organisation works in an ever changing environment. To
face the changing environment many changes need to be
made in the organisation as well.

meaning less.

fulfilling their social responsibilities helps in the development
of society.

objective

participation in management promotion etc in the form of his
personal objective.
• Managers make employees able through motivation good
leadership and open communication .
27. Management as a science
• Science is a systematic body of knowledge which acquired on the basis
of observation and experiment and verification of this knowledge is
possible.
• For example:- A person completes his study of engineering .During the
course of his study he gets a complete theoretical knowledge of the
subject
• Characteristics/Test of Management as a science :-
• Systematic body of knowledge:- It is also a systematic body of
knowledge because it has its own theory and principles which are
developed by the management experts after years of research.
• Principles based on experiment:-Management came into existence
because of the continuous and encouraging labour of the theorists and
various people concerned.
• Universal Validity:- Principles are based on truth and they can be
applied at every time and in every situation.
28. Management as an Art
• To get work from other is an art.
• For example:-When a person after completing the course of
engineering starts working as an engineer in a company his work is
known as art.
• Characteristics/Test of Management as an Art:-
• Existence of theoretical knowledge/Practical knowledge:-Every art
requires practical knowledge therefore learning of theory is not
sufficient.
• It is very important to know practical application of theoretical
principles. E.g. to become a good painter, the person may not only be
knowing different colour and brushes but different designs,
dimensions, situations etc to use them appropriately.
• A manager can never be successful just by obtaining degree or
diploma in management; he must have also know how to apply
various principles in real situations by functioning in capacity of
manager.
29. • Personalized application/Personal Skills:-Although theoretical
base may be same for every artist, but each one has his own style and
approach towards his job.
• That is why the level of success and quality of performance differs
from one person to another. E.g. there are several qualified painters
but M.F. Hussain is recognized for his style.
• Similarly management as an art is also personalized. Every manager
has his own way of managing things based on his knowledge,
experience and personality, that is why some managers are known as
good managers (like Aditya Birla, Rahul Bajaj) whereas others as bad.
• Based on practice and Creativity:-Practice makes a man perfect.
Every artist becomes more and more proficient through constant
practice. Similarly managers learn through an art of trial and error
initially but application of management principles over the years
makes them perfect in the job of managing.
30. Management as both Science and Art
• A manager to be successful in his profession must acquire the
knowledge of science & the art of applying it. Therefore
management is a judicious blend of science as well as an art because
it proves the principles and the way these principles are applied is a
matter of art. Science teaches to ’know’ and art teaches to ’do’. E.g.
a person cannot become a good singer unless he has knowledge
about various ragas & he also applies his personal skill in the art of
singing. Same way it is not sufficient for manager to first know the
principles but he must also apply them in solving various managerial
problems that is why, science and art are not mutually exclusive but
they are complementary to each other (like tea and biscuit, bread
and butter etc.).
• The old saying that “Manager are Born” has been rejected in favor of
“Managers are Made”. It has been aptly remarked that management
is the oldest of art and youngest of science. To conclude, we can say
that science is the root and art is the fruit.
31. Management as a Profession
• A profession may be defined as an occupation that requires specialized
knowledge and intensive academic preparations to which entry is
regulated by a representative body.
• Characteristics/Test of Management as a profession:-
• Well defined body of knowledge:- The foremost quality of a profession
is the possession of specialized knowledge. On the basis of specialty
management can be accepted as a profession.
• Social Obligations - Profession is a source of livelihood but professionals
are primarily motivated by the desire to serve the society. Their actions
are influenced by social norms and values. Similarly a manager is
responsible not only to its owners but also to the society and therefore
he is expected to provide quality goods at reasonable prices to the
society
• Code of Conduct - Members of a profession have to abide by a code of
conduct which contains certain rules and regulations, norms of honesty,
integrity and special ethics. A code of conduct is enforced by a
representative association to ensure self discipline among its members.
32. Representative Association - For the regulation of profession, existance
of a representative body is a must. For example, an institute of
Charted Accountants of India establishes and administers standards of
competence for the auditors but the AIMA however does not have any
statuary powers to regulate the activities of managers.
33. Levels of Management
• Most of the time students write label in place of level ,now firstly we
have to understand what is level and what is label.
• If you are not understand correctly then you will be doing these type of
silly mistakes.
• Level :-fdlhoLrqdkvkdkj@Lrj Label:-igpku fpUgtksfdlhoLrqij gksrk

not have any subordinates that is why they cannot be called

fixed according to the nature, size,etc. of the business.
