應該積極面對任務,不要推諉責任。時間不足、人手不夠、資源有限、老闆不支持、不是我的工作範圍、部屬太怠惰等等,都是推卸責任者(responsibility ducking)常用的潛台詞。有擔當氣慨的經理,在接到任務時,應該立即把其視為挑戰,並有信心贏得戰爭。有擔當的經理,不僅有破斧沉舟的必勝意志,而且在成功機會相當渺茫或形勢極為惡劣的情況下,有永遠都只會自問:我還可以做些什麼?(What else can I do?),來達成出色的績效。當任務搞砸了,有承擔的經理也不會推卸責任,即使他實在不應完全承擔所有的失敗責任,他仍會勇於承擔一切,接受指責或懲罰。
教我做 (Tell me what to do):對要做的事情從何著手、如何著手等事情,不作思索、更不會作出任何決定。實行「每事問」,事無大小,皆向上司請示該如何做,實行假扮犯上了高菲症(Goofy Disease),作出高菲徵候群(Goofy Phenomena Syndrome)病態。患上高菲徵候群的病人,會沒完沒了地向人詢問某事該如何處理,始終不去著手進行,使人為之氣結。
等著瞧 (Wait and see):也有一些經理,在事情糟糕了後,決定等著瞧,什麼都不做,期望有奇蹟出現,化險為夷。
對玩以上六種卸責技倆的經理,其表現屬於「水平線下」(below the line),為受害者心態所左右、沉淪於受害者循環(victim cycle)。這些長居於「水平線下」的經理們,應力圖振作,使其能提升至「水平線上」(above the line)的位置,才能成為一個負責任的經理。
正視現實、承擔責任、解決問提、著手完成,都需要很大的勇氣、堅毅的決心、創造新解決問題方法的智慧、和可資利用的訣竅。這些所有的勇氣、決心、智慧與訣竅都是每個人,都藏在我們身上的天賦本領。(Courage, heart, wisdom and means are within oneself.)這就是作者所說的綠野法則(The Oz principle),成功的力量是我們潛藏在我們身內的能力,尋求法師的幫助是徒勞無功的。

沒有人不想把事情做好,但無自覺如何作。聽到與分析確認,是否為迷信。
改革顧問,有當責概念,說明必須從人開始,兄友弟恭。業主開心自認都有做到。薪水是公司付,業主是衣食父母。未當責主管也不對行為,但大多不自知。本文是主管的一面鏡子。除觀念之外,執行力是重點。
我可以訓練幾乎任何人如何經營一個鐵道集...教導任何技術性,無法教導應付的當責。
基層主管的任務目標,協助所屬把事情做對(do thing right),
中階主管的任務目標,協助所屬做對的事情(do right thing),
案例四:磨刀不誤砍柴刀,是忙還是盲!診救品保部,實驗室主管接手1年,不合格重驗,貨出又驗不完,多採特裁。對策執行上總是猶豫不決,待儀器無法運作,該項檢驗停工月餘,不得不更換零件。調整檢驗順序,等待出貨批次優先>1/3檢測產能進行實驗>補測已出貨樣品。發現除零件磨耗之外,還有許多其他變異來源,困擾檢驗單位4年多的問題,約花一個半月找出真因並逐一改善。(檢查電性,標準樣品有問題,17025的落實。)儀器後有無使用標準樣本測試,依規定建立標準。合格數據完成合格報告。備份樣品,算出誤差,比對誤差。
緊張,先讓休息。倉庫忙碌搬貨,來不及登錄,瞎忙碌。忙到無法分辨事物,不希望讓人說閒話。數據有問題,是老問題。接手是因為實缺問題。知道儀器不準,不敢停工,五次有三次成功。產品不穩定或測試不穩定。規格問題沒有概念,都是參考沒有資料,客戶不知何為好壞。(data is just for reference, knowledge),沒有判斷機制,中間經過多項加工過程。實驗室任務為何,出貨?進料?抽樣問題。管理與當事者的問題,不想面對!
