Power to the middle : why managers hold the keys to the future of work

Schaninger, Bill, 1969- author, Hancock, Bryan, author, Field, Emily (Writer on Industrial management), author

Overview

If you're thinking of cutting your midlevel managers in the new world of work, think again. 'Middle manager.' The term evokes a bygone industrial era in which managers functioned like cogs in a vast bureaucratic machine. In recent decades, midlevel managers became a favourite target for the chopping block - underappreciated, often considered a superfluous layer of the organization. Not only does this outdated perspective need to change, but the future demands it. In 'Power to the Middle', McKinsey thought leaders Bill Schaninger, Bryan Hancock, and Emily Field call for a profound reimagining of managers and their roles. They explain how middle managers are uniquely positioned close to the ground but with a crucial connection to company strategy, enabling them to guide their organizations through periods of rapid and complex change, as well as to help shape the new world of work.
