    Area of Science:

    • Management Science
    • Organizational Behavior
    • Leadership Studies

    Background:

    • General management involves navigating complex pressures and constraints.
    • These influences can originate externally or be self-determined by the manager.
    • Distinguishing between these origins is crucial for effective leadership.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the range of pressures and constraints impacting Deputy General Managers (DGMs).
    • To identify the dual origins (external vs. self-imposed) of these management challenges.
    • To provide insights for enhancing DGM control over their roles and work environment.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of findings from the Templeton tracer study of DGMs.
    • Incorporation of insights from the Templeton DGMs' group discussions.
    • Qualitative examination of reported pressures and constraints.

    Main Results:

    • Pressures and constraints on general management are multifaceted.
    • A significant portion of these challenges stem from both external factors and individual managerial perceptions.
    • DGMs experience a variety of specific pressures and constraints.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective general managers differentiate between external and self-imposed pressures.
    • Knowledge of these distinctions empowers managers to modify or mitigate constraints.
    • This strategic understanding enhances a manager's control and job effectiveness.
