Management in business (what is the story of brown smarties in business)?
In the 1980s, a band that played a large number of shows a year had a contract with multiple clauses and used it to contract with theaters. In this contract, all the technical details of electricity, stage equipment, etc. were recorded, and the hall owner was obliged to provide all of them to the music group as requested. Among the provisions of the contract, an article was included and it was requested to present a bowl of Smarties in the backstage room without brown Smarties in it. In the same years, this contract with this detail and this unusual material caused laughter and ridicule among the music community.
The leader of this music group mentioned this in his biography and said: In several performances, technical problems caused serious dangers for my colleagues and the whole show was about to be ruined. We decided to add this article to the contract. I couldn’t spend a few hours on each performance and, for example, check the amount of amperes needed in each power outlet. Therefore, when we wanted to start our work in a theater, I would go to the backstage room and check the container of Smarties. If there was no dish or there were brown Smarties in it, I gave the possibility of a technical error and asked the salon owner to check all the equipment again according to the contract. In other words, in this way, I realized that the salon owner did not read all the provisions of the contract carefully (really, one enjoys so much creativity and intelligence).
In fact, it is the senior managers and the founders of a business who must make key and strategic decisions (of course, it must be noted that the help of operational managers is also sought for formulating the strategy, not that orders and decisions are taken from above). Like the leader of this music group, we don’t have enough time and energy to examine all aspects of our business. But if we spend a little creativity, there will be no need to examine all the details. Basically, the presence of industrial engineering students can help a lot in terms of productivity, process design and planning.
The composition of the team should be arranged in such a wonderful and precise way that it will ultimately lead to success. That means, along with the commercialization team (those who read and know management and entrepreneurship), there should also be a correct technical team (kids from the technical school). If you have the time and interest to do so, if not, definitely get help from people who study philosophy and sociology academically, so that you can better understand the concepts and have a successful business (I wanted to say that there is a lot of bias towards knowledge and academic fields. If you haven’t read, expand your connections and get help from others and make the best use of available resources).
