The Innovative Manager

03.09.2011

I am now at the plant of a leading Tamilnadu-based Automobile Major, delivering a session on Cost Reduction Techniques to a group of bright young engineers. I am trying to make them understand the need for constantly and continuously reducing costs. This demands a Creative outlook. The old algorithimic approaches fail as the challenges from the environment intensify. What is needed today is an attitude of continuous ideation and inventive problem solving.

Being a Manager now does not only involve faultless execution, it also demands continuous innovation in the execution both at the process as well as the product level. This is the Challenge of the new millnium. This is the challenge of change.
