The Economic Crisis and on-coming Recession provides opportunity

All nations and economies will suffer from the coming recession. But, every economic downturn or financial crisis is an opportunity for those with the proper viewpoint. Will corporations use people and resources made available to organize and manage their real business? Will governments take advantage of the downturn through a program to eliminate the fundamental business management problems that cause the crisis; to restore and build confidence, stimulate the economy, and prepare local businesses to flourish in the upcoming recovery? Or will governments throw money at the obvious symptoms and fail to understand the fundamental problems, as always in the past?

We cannot continue to use dead-end 20^th century management

This financial, corporate governance, and economic crisis and all past crises are caused by one fundamental problem; failure to manage the corporate business. Since the beginning, all business, financial, corporate governance, and economic crises and problems have arisen because businesses are not managed, finances are not managed as capital solutions utilized by businesses; and businesses, industries, markets, and economies are not managed as one interrelated whole. The problems are fundamental to 20^th century management still used today to manage enterprises, finances and financial institutions, and economies. Dead-end 20^th century management lays organization and management structures over the business that conflict with the actual business and cause many well-known management problems that can never be solved by improved 20^th century management. Finances are managed as overlaid structures and models instead of as one part of all properly-managed capital utilized by the business. Corporations, multi-business collaboration, markets, industries, segments, economies and other business groupings are managed through a variety of contrived 20^th century structures, instead of being built up from managed businesses.

Government “solutions” address obvious symptoms, and allow problems to continue unsolved

Governments around the world are now proposing “solutions” to the economic crisis. The “solutions” comprise measures to reduce the negative consequences of the problems causing the crisis, to stimulate economies slowed by the problems causing the crisis, to restore confidence in the continuation of problems causing the crisis, and to bail out the financial institutions and other corporations that fail to manage their business to cause the crisis. No government shows any recognition whatsoever of the fundamental cause of the crisis or is taking any action whatsoever to prevent future economic crisis. Governments continue to throw money at the obvious symptoms and fail to understand or address the fundamental problems, as always in the past.

The only business solution possible is R-pM to focus on and manage businesses

20^th Century Management Magazine articles describe all aspects of 20^th century management problems and the use of Result-performance Management (R-pM) to organize and manage the business as “investments in capital as solutions of worth utilized for costs and effectiveness of performance to produce value and quality in results”. R-pM eliminates the management distractions, excessive costs and IT resources, and confusing and missing information produced by structures laid over the business. R-pM focuses on the business for all organization, planning, direction, control, reporting, and governance. R-pM manages all financial facility, human, and other capital invested in and utilized by the business as one set of capital solutions. R-pM manages all economic outputs produced by the business as one set of results. R-pM organizes and manages the business by implementing specific capital solutions to be utilized to produce specific results. R-pM plans the strategic business through strategic results and new capital investments required. R-pM captures complete and accurate business data and provides one set of consistent, complete, and accurate business management information that is not provided to management today. R-pM manages one business structure for the complete business or any part of the business. R-pM manages projects, programs, and campaigns as businesses that produce a result in the enterprise structure. R-pM builds up the corporate business from all the individual enterprise businesses within the corporation for effective corporate management.

The only economic management solution possible is R-pM to manage markets, industries, and economies as the total of businesses

Many experts cite the need for a new architecture for corporate, financial, and economic management, but cannot describe what the actual architecture should be. R-pM provides the foundation and unifying architecture for governments to execute their responsibility for economic management. Every corporation, market, industry, economic sector or area, and the worldwide economy is built up of enterprise and personal businesses that acquire capital solutions and input results for use by the business and produce output results for other personal and enterprise businesses. This basic and simple concept has never been understood or managed because to this day corporations and governments do not understand the business or make any effort to manage the business. All business schools, management books, and management experience propagate dead-end 20^th century management to manage the enterprise by laying contrived and arbitrary structures over the business.

R-pM provides the breakthrough needed to manage the actual business, so that markets, industries, and economies can be managed as the total of businesses and business activity included.
R-pM provides the architecture for managing industries, markets, and economies. Business structures are used further to manage industries as a total of competing businesses, and to manage economies for an area or sector as the total of businesses involved. Industries such as the financial and automotive industries can be managed by understanding the totality of results produced and capital utilized within an economy. All businesses employ 21^st Century Management conventions, so that business data is consistent and complete and can be consolidated at various levels.

Financial capital utilization can be managed as part of all capital utilization to understand capital assets and liabilities within businesses, corporations, industries, and economies. Market information is collected and organized by standardized capital solutions and results for consistent understanding across businesses. R-pM provides 21^st Century Business Management conventions and standards the foundation for future business, corporation, market, industry, and economic management.

A Business Management Program provides the answer for a government, nation, and economy

Governments have the opportunity to do it right; to actually eliminate the cause of the financial and economic crisis and build the architecture for economic management to manage cycles and prevent crisis through a Business Management Program. The Business Management Program is led by a government or government group to sponsor the transformation of businesses from dead-end 20^th century management to future 21^st Century Management. The Program is a key-result that includes several set-results, which are sub-defined by end-results from performance. Set-results provide business management materials and promotions, set up an Internet site to support local enterprises implementing R-pM, assist local businesses to develop 21 ^st century services and solutions, certify implemented business management, and recommend a new set of business and economic policies and regulations in the final program report.

The diagram shows an simplified example of R-pM to manage a sample program. The program is organized, planned, and managed through R-pM to provide experience in business management, as shown in a sample program business structure above. The program should be government-led with professional R-pM management consulting support. The program alerts local corporations to the need to organize businesses to gain competitive advantage, and to avoid losing advantage to competing 21^st century corporations. The program should involve local professional and industry associations, business service and solution providers, and related government programs.

The Business Management Program requires very little government investment for a large return.

The Business Management Program is available to any government to build confidence in government actions, stimulate the short-term economy, and build long-term growth. The government must be willing to take fresh look at what constitutes a business and overcome the conventional thinking and vested-interests that want to continue current practices. Current enterprise management practices are the cause of the problems. Completely new best business management practices are needed to eliminate the problems. The government investment is minimal compared to the vast increase government revenues from the program, and the amounts being spent to address the symptoms of the crisis.

A Business Management Program takes advantage of the slowdown to put available resources and management time to work to improve local business management. The program also develops local capabilities and products to provide 21^st Century Management services and solutions that will be required world-wide. R-pM provides significant competitive advantages over corporations still burdened with unsolvable 20^th century management problems. Local businesses will increase and substantiate capital worth for investor confidence, drive a strong economic recovery, and compete with other businesses around the world that are now implementing R-pM.
