The case for managerial ruthlessness

Article Abstract:

British managers in growing organisations need to be firm and objective with staff to achieve their company strategy. The manager should be able to select and dismiss team members without causing personal offence and should deal with all staffing issues in a professional manner. Management training does not always cater for ruthless behaviour in a constructive environment even though the organisation may wish this practice to be encouraged.
