Overcome dead-end 20^th century management

20^th century management lays structures over the business causing unsolvable problems

Every business enterprise today is organized through one form or another of 20^th century management. If an organization structure or chart was contrived to show the enterprise business organization, the enterprise uses 20^th century management. The organization structure is laid over the business instead of organizing the business. Since the business is not organized, the business cannot be managed. The enterprise is managed by additional strategic map or corporate plan, account, business process, performance management, activity costing, information system, human resource levels and scales, administration, and a myriad of other management structures laid over the business. Overlaid structures conflict with the actual business causing unsolvable problems.

20^th century management problems can never be solved by more overlaid structures

Throughout the 20^th century, businesses have encountered unsolvable problems with reorganization, business change, change management, unknown costs, unknown capital worth, unknown investment returns, unknown value creation, business alignment, business collaboration, and on and on. The emergence of information technology offered the opportunity to organize and manage the actual business and eliminate the problems. But, IT was employed instead to computerize overlaid structures thus compounding the unsolvable problems. IT has added unsolvable problems in excessive IT resources and expenditures consumed, business and information complexity, IT architectures to manage portfolios and networks, data reconciliation and information management and on and on. 20^th century management problems are unsolvable because they can never be solved by laying new or improved structures over the business.

20^th century management is a dead-end that will only get worse in the future

20^th century management is a dead-end. The unsolvable problems can never be solved and 20^th century management attempts to solve the problems just add wasted investments, increase costs, and more complicated structures. Today enterprise are being asked to employ separate structures for records management, document management, and report management. More overheads are being added for enterprise management architectures. These and other 20^th century management solutions being sold today can only compound unsolvable problems and increase costs.

The only alternative is to organize and manage the business

There is only one alternative for any business enterprise today be it a corporation, agency, institution, association, or other form. That alternative is to organize and manage the actual business for 21^st Century Management and leave 20^th century management problems behind. Once the actual business “the utilization of capital of worth in performance to incur costs and produce value in results” is organized, the various structures laid over the business are no longer needed. The business in managed by capturing actual business data on result value, performance cost, capital worth, investment value-added returns, etc and using one consistent set of accurate business management information.

Result-performance Management (R-pM) is the only method to manage the business

There is only way to organize and manage the actual enterprise business, Result-performance Management (R-pM). R-pM organizes the utilization of capital of worth in performance to incur costs and produce value in results. The enterprise is organized through one business structure that organizes three components: capital of worth available to the business, the utilization of capital in performance to incur costs and produce results, and the economic output results of value produced. A strategic business structure at a future horizon plans future results to produce and the capital required in new performance solutions to create strategic result value. All business decisions and all business change involve the results to produce from the business and the human and other capital to utilize in performance to produce the results.

Organize your business with R-pM to overcome dead-end 20^th century management

Once the business is organized with R-pM, all 20th century management structures are removed and one business structure is used for all organization, planning, directing, control, reporting, and governance. Information systems are reduced to the essential solutions to produce specific results, all human capital are developed and utilized as solutions of worth to produce results within their capability, all intangible assets are employed to produce results, and all unproductive efforts and underutilized capital are eliminated. The business is managed to quickly add or close results and redeploy performance. The future of the business is open to 21^st century success.

The road to success is laid out in the R-pM Toolkit available now at result-performance-management.com.
