Management like Obama (MLO)

I am sure that it will not take long until the first management books are published, that refer to the new American leader. I would write one myself, if I would be close enough to him and had enough time. After “Management by Objectives (MBO)” the business world will talk about MLO. At least the western one. I mean real life management dealing with the real world. He has demonstrated throughout his election campagne that he can mobilies voters, but as the mightiest man on the planet, there will to be more than excellent markting strategies.

Obama

Mr. Obama certainly is a great talent. The Turks nearly blew the NATO away this week-end with their non-support for Anders Fogh Rasmussen as the new head of NATO. Creating a major crisis in the one of the worlds import organization. A phonecall later from Mr. President, this was fixed. We do not know, what exactly happened there, but I am impressed by Obamas later words to comment the situation. The German Magazin “Spiegel” reports that Obama said nothing about his role in the ultimate success of the conference. He modestly thanked Turkey for expressing its “important” concerns.
