More often than not, i think the karma of management is to make things possible.

By this i mean remove obstacles to growth for their employees, nurture them, befriend them, weed out problems. To provide direction and stimulate thought. Encourage participation and promote free speech. Instill confidence and provide a canvas for employees to paint their masterpiece.
This promotes loyalty, trust and breeds mutual respect amongst the Management and the employees. More often that not a healthy environment seems to do wonders for the bottom line. Isn’t this old hat?
Seems we are not very far away from Universities which purport to do all of the above.
