The
fundamentals of management are real.
You use them, perhaps intuitively,
when you work with other people in
any kind of enterprise - from chairing
a local charity organization to leading
a work team to building a complex
industrial organization.
Just as you learn
the basics of golf or engineering
and then refine them over time, so
also you master the fundamentals of
management so that you can apply them
in any situation. These are not merely
skills you use on the job - they are
skills for living you can use at home,
at work, and at play.
Integrating the fundamentals
of management into a unified system
enables effective application and
ensures sustainability. The need for
a unifying structure has never been
greater with the increasing complexity
of the environment today.
The Allen Management
System is a back-to-basics systems
approach to managing organizations
that has been tried and tested for
more than 45 years and refined continually
over the period.
The Allen Management
System emerged out of a three-year
study Mr. Allen completed on behalf
of the National Industrial Conference
Board where he analyzed the work of
managers in over 150 corporations.
As a result the system has evolved
from a practicing manager's standpoint
covering the fundamental work that
managers actually do in organizations.
This makes it eminently practical
and it can be easily customized to
dovetail effortlessly into organizations
across industries / sectors.
