Key to Success: Humanness Companies must enable their personnel to use their training, talents, a n d experience to the fullest X N T H F FORMULA for successful m a n
power development, t h e most impor Of o n n r o c tant a company can have high sales and profits without it. But where h u m a n understanding is missing, management personnel is difficult t o develop a n d hold. This opinion was expressed by Syd ney Steele, director of t h e planning staff of Atlas Powder, speaking before a recent meeting of t h e Chemical In dustry Association. Management, h e says, must be sure that the essential in gredient—humanness—is present not only at t h e top b u t at all levels. O p portunities must b e provided for em ployees t o broaden their usefulness t o the company. With men of perception and understanding in key positions, there need b e n o limit t o company growth. T h e company will have created t h e climate in which its per sonnel can use t o t h e fullest their in dividual training, talents, experience, and inclinations. Steele went on to quote Monsanto's Frank Curtis, w h o said: " T h e setting up a n d t h e handling of a program such as w e are talking about requires some one with warm understanding a n d sym pathy—someone w h o cares—who'is not a cold fish armed with numbers a n d statistics and a belief i n the efficacy of rules. Here is where the small or ganization can have an advantage over
the large. Where everyone knows everyone else, there i s a b e t t e r chance that a potential man»Bcfer> will not be smothered b y an unimaginative and un sympathetic lower executive. "As organizations g r o w bigger, the personal element ca.n b e lost. Job classification systems and salary plans can b e built by little minds into strait jackets. T h e making of a manager first requires humanness a t t h e t o p to cor rect t h e dead hand of t h e statistical approach a n d t o bring back some of the intimacy of earlier days."
