Job design requires the assembly of a number of tasks into a job or group of jobs. An individual may carry out one main task that consists of several interrelated functions. Complexity of a job may be a reflection of the number and variety of tasks to be carried out or the range and scope of the decisions to be made or the difficulty in predicting the outcome of the decisions.

Over the past hundred years management has continuously been evolving. There have been a wide range of approaches in how to deal with management or better yet how to improve management functions in our ever changing environment. From as early as 1100 B.C managers have been struggling with the same issues and problems that manager's face today. Modern managers use many of the practices, principles, and techniques developed from earlier concepts and experiences.

There is a reality in the key to be successful in your job and moving up the corporate or executive ladder. We need to learn how to manage our managers. This doesn’t mean to tell them what to do or to control their responsibilities. The art of knowing how to manage your manager goes further than this. But it’s not only about getting to know your manager or their organizational need. But it’s also about projecting and building trust. It’s about managing up. When I saw this subject for this paper I thought to myself; I know a few things about this, I spend many countless hours managing up. I do whatever I can to make my manager’s job easy. Managing up is another term to turn into an indispensable asset to your manager. I will be using my experience in the subject.

The way jobs are designed has a significant bearing on how well a worker performs that job and how satisfied they are with what they are doing. Job design is an important decision that managers and supervisors must make when formulating the organizational design of their company or firm. One job design technique managers use is job enrichment. Job enrichment is defined as being “a job redesign technique that allows workers more control over how they perform their own tasks, giving them more responsibility” (Carpenter, M., Taylor, B., and Erdogan, B., 2009, p. 336). While job enrichment has its share of both advantages and disadvantages, it is one design technique that managers use when reorganizing the structure of the company. In

Management is not a one-person job; it is a team effort where one mission is completed by working together. In this assignment, we learned first-hand how managers work together and manage their organization. We were able to see how managers face organizational politics and how they react to the effects of politics throughout the company. These managers also taught us how a diverse workplace can help their company and impact the way they do business. Management also takes place outside of the workplace. We will look at how having social responsibility in the community can help improve the perception of the company. We will also learn what motivates managers to exceed in their jobs. We will identify the skills required for a manager to succeed and how managers keep their employees engaged at work. Finally, we will look at how changes in the organization can affect the way management operates its day-to-day functions. After exploring these areas, we found that managers are very involved in their company. Everything managers do is for the company because they feel like the workplace is a second home and their coworkers are like family to them. Communicating their problems and needs foster an open environment, which allows management and employees to excel. Working together helps form a company into one unit dedicated to its customers.
