Breaking up "MANAGEMENT"

was sitting in the class, trying to pay attention to the lecture but was not in the mood today (yet again, ufff) suddenly i saw the word "management" - okay i have seen it more than a hundred thousand times now but todaywas something different. i started breaking it up (told you notin the mood to do anything constructive or productive) to get the smaller words and was amazed how nicely management could be broken up to form new words that relate to management.

Okay, it's childish and it may not appeal to you, but then, who cares. J/K ( haha)!

Here come some of the words I took from management and also how I broke them (people from ABS who'll accidentally or forcefully read my post, i want to clarify that the post is 100% original ;) )

1) Man/Men - of course management is done on the four M's - Money, Method, Material and Men. Man/men had to be a part of it.

2) Age - The art of management (managing people, resources, decision making etc) improves with age and experience.

3) Team - Aha! this was a surprise. Management decision today are not taken alone, your team has to be with you. employee empowerment and making them participate in the decision making is a part of many corporate cultures (my HR book said so) and thus team will always form a part of "management"

4) Mate - Some of your team members may become your mates, friends, buddies, etc. This improves communication within the team and helps to manage things better. Communication is an important key to the room leading to success.

5) Name - Creating a name for your organization, team , project etc. is important for a manager. the name (or call it the brand) will determine how much importance you have in others' opinion.

6) Neat - The art of management should be not be sloppy. Risk should be taken when making decisions but one should not just "jump" into it. Calculated risk is required. Also the work you perform should not be just for finishing it on a deadline. Ofcourse time is important but the work should be neat and in a way that stands out.

7)Meet - Meet people. Need not say more about it

8) Meat - Not for food. I take this meat for money. All things are important but ultimately, the management decisions are all taken to maximize this meat and thus it forms an integral part of management

9) Mean - You gotta be mean at times (It's just what i feel, no compulsions :))

10) Maa - If there is someone from whom you wanna learn management its your mother. she manages everything so perfectly, that all management gurus should take a bow. Vande Mataram.

there are many more words, but these were the ones i found to be apt for the post (and also to keep it short)

Comments are welcome, ridicule is not :)

Adios.

P.S. I had forgotten a very important break-up of the word -

GAME - management's a game that is to be played with ethics (haha), with sincerity (double haha!) and with good intentions for the company, for its people, for customers, for the nation, in short, for everyone. Just ask Ramalinga Raju, he'll let u know! ;)
just kidding!
thanks gopika for reminding :)
