Monkey Management What is a Monkey? • Any task that requires Action. Who’s got the Monkey? • The person who decides to make the Next Move.
Monkey Truths • Many well-meaning bosses proudly go on Monkey Round-ups! • Monkeys are tricky and can disguise themselves as “Boss, We’ve got a problem.” • When bosses accept an employee’s monkey, they then become subordinate to the employee.
Monkey Truths • Monkey’s sleep just as soundly on the backs of Employees. • Monkeys need to be with their rightful owners. • If the task is yours, then you have two choices: keep it or Delegate it. • If the task belongs to the employee, give it Back.
The Care & Feeding of Monkeys Rule #1: Monkeys should be fed or Shot. Rule #2: The monkey population should be kept below the Maximum number the manager has time to feed. Rule #3: Monkeys should be fed by Appointment only. Rule #4: Monkeys should be fed face-to-face or by telephone but never my mail or E-mail.
Two Keys to Execution • Delegate • Emancipate
Emancipate Def: Giving people the Freedom to Succeed.
Goal of Emancipation Goal of emancipation is NOT to completely eliminate bureaucracy, but to eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy!
Key Emancipation Question NOT: How Much control do I need? Is: How Little control do I need?
Leader’s Emancipation Mindset • Give people freedom to experiment • Shift from forcing compliance to inspiring excellence • Shift from preventing failures to maximizing successes • Create freedom from bureaucracy • Encourage challenges of the status-quo • Give everyone input in to making it happen
Leader’s Role in Execution • Guide • Inspect • Redirect
