Reflection on Guest Lecture on Management

The guest lectures started with a discussion on why management fall in a crisis. Bosse Carlsson and Annelie Nordström using examples from their professional background through an interactive presentation. They both are expert on their field, so highlighted uncertainty, risk, collective stress, crisis, and normal accidents if one of them occur then how to act and then we became CEO for one day for taking decision by our won on crisis and also how to prepare for crisis. The lecture went on by discussing a crisis can strike at any time and how to take care of it as a leader. Guest lectures showed us a scenario that Swedish labour union Kommunal membership has been faced declining steadily members because of a restaurant loss. Though restaurant business is a risky business, even then if some step took on the right time, because preventing is better than curing.

After crisis start have to take hole control as a leader, and as a leader is an important step to take decision what is going to be done. For taking his/her decision he/she don’t need to discus about it with others, power should be divided in an effective way. Vision of the decision should be clear and visible from outside. Representative with a solid hand as a leader and follow up. Leader should be aware of everything, what is happening to the winds. These all are leader’s responsibility, courage to take all responsibility and carry out as it is world cup final.

Lessons learnt

The guest lecture is an analysis method that based on a philosophy that combines of knowledge acquisition with significant participation from students side as active learners. As an active learner, from guest preparation use of the crisis management method. Without careful steps and analysis focus on the main mission, without that souvenir incident could occur. Without actively participate we (student) could not be a witness of that very important experience of Guest real life. In that lecture guests adopt different approaches on crisis. For example, power of authority should be well planned divided, make a department for professional strategic assignments. To be kept very good communication with auditors, that will help to know about current business situation at any time. When you think you don’t have any crisis, then you are the most vulnerable, so should be prepare for when business has no crisis. Routinely follow up crisis drill can prevent these unwanted incidents. Even if it happens have to be act as quickly as possible, other hand by the time it gets worst to worst.

Some require active learners/students to use a specific analytical procedure to examine an organisation; others provide less structure, expecting students to learn by developing their own unique analytical method. Still other instructors believe that a moderately structured framework should be used to analyse a firm’s situation and make appropriate recommendations. Your lecturer or tutor will determine the specific approach you take. The approach we are presenting to you is a moderately structured framework.
