11 method study
Gen Mgtthe systematic recording, examination, and analysis of existing and proposed ways of conducting work tasks in order to discover the most efficient and economical methods of performing them. The basic procedure followed in method study is as follows: select the area to be studied; record the data; examine the data; develop alternative approaches; install the new method; maintain the new method. Method study forms part of work study and is normally conducted prior to work measurement. The technique was initially developed to evaluate manufacturing processes but has been used more widely to evaluate alternative courses of action. It is based on research into motion study conducted by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth during the 1920s and 1930s. -
12 scenario planning
Gen Mgta technique that requires the use of a scenario in the process of strategic planning to aid the development of corporate strategy in the face of uncertainty about the future. Scenario planning was developed in a military context during the 1940s. Its use in a business context was pioneered at Royal Dutch Shell during the 1960s and increased after the 1972 oil crisis. The process of identifying alternative scenarios of the future, based on a variety of differing assumptions, can help managers anticipate changes in the business environment and raise awareness of the frame of reference within which they are operating. The scenarios are then used to assist in both the development of strategies for dealing with unexpected events and the choice between alternative strategic options. -
13 contract hire
Gen Mgtan arrangement whereby an organization enters into a contract for the use of assets owned by another organization, as an alternative to purchasing the assets itself. Contract hire agreements normally cover a period shorter that the useful economic life of the assets concerned and often include arrangements for maintenance and replacement. Organizations frequently use contract hire arrangements for the provision of company cars or office equipment. -
14 cost-cutting
Gen Mgtthe reduction of the amount of money spent on the operations of an organization or on the provision of products and services. Cost-cutting measures such as budget reductions, salary freezes, and staff redundancies may be taken by an organization at a time of recession or financial difficulty or in situations where inefficiency has been identified. Alternative approaches to cost-cutting include modifying organizational structures and redesigning organizational processes for greater efficiency. Excessive cost-cutting may affect productivity and quality or the organization’s ability to add value. -
15 decision making
Gen Mgtthe process of choosing between alternative courses of action. Decision making may take place at an individual or organizational level. The process may involve establishing objectives, gathering relevant information, identifying alternatives, setting criteria for the decision, and selecting the best option. The nature of the decision-making process within an organization is influenced by its culture and structure, and a number of theoretical models have been developed. One well-known method for individual decision making was developed by Charles Kepner and Benjamin Tregoe in their book The New Rational Manager (1981). Decision theory can be used to assist in the process of decision making. Specific techniques used in decision making include heuristics and decision trees. Computer systems designed to assist managerial decision making are known as decision support systems. -
16 executive
Gen Mgtan employee in a position of senior responsibility in an organization. An executive is involved in planning, strategy, policy making, and line management. The term executive can also be used as an alternative to manager, consultant, officer, or agent. -
17 feasibility study
Gen Mgtan investigation into a proposed plan or project to determine whether and how it can be successfully and profitably carried out. Frequently used in project management, a feasibility study may examine alternative methods of reaching objectives or be used to define or redefine the proposed project. The information gathered must be sufficient to make a decision on whether to go ahead with the project or to enable an investor to decide whether to commit finances to it. This will normally require analysis of technical, financial, and market issues, including an estimate of resources required in terms of materials, time, personnel, and finance, and the expected return on investment. -
18 Japanese management
Gen Mgt, HRa management style with particular emphasis on employees and manufacturing techniques, to which the Japanese economic miracle that began in the 1960s is attributed. Japanese management practices have been studied in the rest of the world in the hope that the economic success they brought to Japan can be recreated elsewhere. These practices emphasize forming collaborations, particularly in times of uncertainty, human resources, closer superior-subordinate relationships, and consensus as a means of facilitating implementation. Richard Pascale and Anthony Athos suggested that the Japanese competitive advantage stemmed from skills, staff, and superordinate goals, the softer features identified by the McKinsey 7-S framework. Other dominant characteristics include people-centered management, loyalty to employees, just-in-time, kaizen, continuous improvement, quality control, total quality management, and the ideas of W. Edwards Deming. William Ouchi expounded Theory J and Theory Z, which demonstrated the differences between U.S. and Japanese styles of management. With the downturn in the Japanese economy in the 1990s, management practices were reappraised, and there emerged a focus on radical change as opposed to incremental improvement. Customers were offered less variety, there was a shift toward simplicity, and an alternative to consensus-based decision making was adopted, with individuals making decisions based on high-tech information systems. -

20 simulation
Gen Mgtthe construction of a mathematical model to imitate the behavior of a real-world situation or system in order to test the outcomes of alternative courses of action. Simulation was used in a military context by the Chinese as many as 5,000 years ago and has applications in the fields of science, research and development, economics, and business systems. The use of simulation has become more widespread since the development of computers in the 1950s, which facilitated the manipulation of large quantities of data and made it possible to model more complex systems. Simulation techniques are used in situations where reallife experimentation would be impossible, costly, or dangerous, and for training purposes.
