The classification of plants and animals has lot of management message for the corporate leaders to learn.  The taxonomy is purely based on the anatomic organization of all life forms. 

 

The classification starts from the single celled protozoa to multi-cellular animals.  Within the multi-cellular animals,How to setup your corporate HR culture Articles the animals are further classified based on various organs and their functions.  In the evolutionary ladder, the animals occupying the highest position have different well developed organs to perform different functions like breathing, excretion, sweating etc. 

 

In the higher group of animals, different organs perform different functions independently and thereby they support the ‘single goal’ of keep the life going.   Like how animals are classified, corporate also must evolve with different functions fully delegated and empowered to function. 

 

It is not creating different functions/departments is enough, giving complete freedom, independence and encouragement to these functions is the most required thing the corporate leaders have to learn.  Many corporate leaders and bosses never allow the subordinates/functions to function independently.    In every activity, the bosses love to interfere. 

 

Imagine, if our body doesn’t allow the brain to function independently?  It interferes with heart, ears, eyes etc.  Life would go ‘blank’ if such defect ever occurs.  If an organ ever makes such attempts, the result would be the medical condition called ‘hernia’, warrant immediate surgery. 

 

Why most of the modern corporate never follow or practice giving freedom to different functions?  Why the people should consult and get permission from these leaders for everything?    

 

These bosses believe that by creating different functions like purchase, finance, legal, R&D, sales, marketing etc., they can take the organization to the highest stature. It is not creating different functions; giving freedom to function only can make the difference.   Otherwise, only the bosses alone will be functioning.  That is how many ‘single’ man’s corporate are functioning today.

 

Nature has created many species of animals including man (with different independently functioning organs) is only to ensure that different organs by being independent could support the life effectively.  Unless such clear system and organized functioning mechanism are created, the corporate may remain primitive despite having different functions. 

 

When the corporate leaders look at the classification of animal kingdom, must understand the finest management blue print of nature and how different species are created from unicellular to multi-cellular and from multi-cellular to multi-organ based.  Nature has given freedom and independence to each organ and that is where success of evolution lies.
