The Competitive Playing Field will no longer be Level
Today’s playing field is level because all enterprises have the same problems
20th century management continues today, because all enterprises are burdened with the same costs and problems. 20th century management organizes and manages the enterprise through contrived structures laid over the business. The contrived organization, process, system, account, administration, IT architectures, maps, scorecards, and other rigid structures conflict with the business causing unsolvable problems.
20th century management is a dead-end that can never solve today’s management problems
20th century management is a dead-end that causes many unsolvable problems like reorganization, business change management, unknown costs and value, unknown capital worth and returns, intangible assets, sporadic effectiveness and quality management, business and information complexity, rampant IT investments and costs, inaccurate and conflicting enterprise information, little actual business management information, business collaboration obstacles, and on and on. The only solution 20th century management can offer is to lay new or improved structures over the business. This is a dead-end, since the problems are unsolvable because they can never be solved by more structures laid over the business. The unsolvable problems can only get worse as enterprises grow and IT utilization increases.
