Power, access said keys to success
Power and access to power are the critical components
of successful management and business endeavors, accord
ing to Rosaberth Kanter, speaker at the "Workplaces as
People Experience Them" conference Friday.
The conference was sponsored by the UNL department
of management, the Nebraska Business Development
Center and the U.S. Small Business Administration.
Kanter is a professor of sociology and organization and
management at Yale University.
"Power goes to the pioneers and risk-takers who
choose activities with a high discretionary component,"
Kanter said. "It does not come from repeating the
known."
When speaking of power attained through alliances,
Kanter said it is necessary to have profitable relationships
in every direction - above, below and sideways.
She said alliances are helpful in the evaluation of an
idea, whether it be for a new product, a new organization
al technique or a new business. Kanter said personal fail
ures in some large corporations have resulted from a lack
of alliances among those working at the same level.
Kanter is a pioneer in the study of the impact of or
ganizational structure on group and individual behavior.
In her speech, she outlined the phases an entrepreneur
must go through in the accomplishment process.
She emphasized the need to view the initial idea from
a variety of viewpoints and to develop it to fit the
environment so that it is immune to criticism. If coalition-building
is successfully accomplished, the idea will
be a success if momentum is maintained.
"Sponsors are the last people the entrepreneur should
approach," Kanter said. "One of the sad ironies of
working life is that sponsors only leap on board when it
is safe."
The speaker criticized corporations that stifle the inno
vation of middle managers by limiting their power.
"Power-sharing does not eliminate hierarchy," Kanter
said. "It expands each level and makes everyone more productive."
