Craftsmanship vs Organisation And 3 E's of Management

Lets see the difference between the two in detailed manner:

Parameter	Craftsmanship	Company
No of Employee	1	Greater than 1
Work	Non Parallel	Parallel
Kind Of Work	Generic	Specialization (Dexerity-By doing things again & again proficiency increases)
Nature Of Work	Satisfaction	Alienation
Control	Worker	Non Worker
Skilled	Skill	Deskilled
Definition Of Role	No role defined	Roles are exactly defined for individuals.

Note:

The difference between craftsmanship & a company can be clearly seen in 3^rd world countries. For example they are happy with their small "Kirana" stores but not in a favor to take risk and become similar to Walmart. This is due to their conservative mindset.

 

3 E’s OF MANAGEMENT

Prior to this I would like to ask a Question from you. So the question is:

Q: What does an organization trying to achieve by fragmenting the work and  specialization?

Ans: They are trying to achieve excellence. To achieve excellence what we need is effectiveness & efficiency in our actions.

So here are those E’s of management:

1)      Effectiveness

2)      Excellence

3)      Efficiency

Correlation between them can be explained  that connects these 3 E’s is:

 

Effectiveness can tell us whether we are moving in the same direction or not, it can tell us whether we are focusing our resources in an efficient way or not.

“More out of less for more is Excellence”. Example Indian Railway

“More out of less is Efficiency”

 To understand it better here are other examples:

Example1: Internet help us increase our efficiency, but how we use internet is effectiveness.

Example2:

In my IT organization my client was a US telecom giant. Their decision of outsourcing IT work to Indian firms is an example of effectiveness. As a result of this they are able to save a lot of money because same work in India cost them just Rs. 40/- in comparison to US where its cost is Rs 100/-.

Such decision would have been taken by a matured person in that company.
