The Responsible Manager by Prahalad (HBR)

Harvard Business Review publicó una columna de C.K. Prahalad, una especie de decálogo del “buen gerente” el cual es muy interesante. Como siempre sucede con este tipo de texto, en un espacio reducido dicen cosas trascendentales. La columna de Prahalad no es la excepción a la regla.

Si bien todos los puntos son importantes, destaco:
  • Understand the importance of nonconformity.

  • Display a commitment to learning and developing yourself.

  • Be ready to invest in developing other people.

  • Realize the importance of loyalty to organization, profession, community, society, and, above all, family.

Every year, I revisit my notes about the responsible manager, which I first jotted down in 1977. The world has changed a lot since then, but I haven’t found it necessary to change a word of my lecture. Indeed, the message is more relevant today than ever.
