Obama’s Management: Question or answer

leave a comment »

If I remember correctly, President Barack Obama was the person who brought smile to everyone once he was elected and sworn in as President of United States of America.

Sincerely it was a management practice that he adopted and justified his decision of barring outsourcing of work from organization in U.S.A., with a very justified statement that “I am the President of U.S.A. and its my job to deliver food, shelter, protection and a job to my citizens at home.” Indeed that is his job in present scenario but it’s rather questionable.

He has hard time feeding people in U.S.A. but he can definitely part out investments to countries like Pakistan for non-military funds but is he not entitled to supply this amount first at home. That amount could certainly have been used to bring about an industry at present which can be run by American citizens right from home which government can take up and supply it out at a minimum profit margin rate in International market which does provide revenue to country as well as employment to earn bread and butter. Now its to people who should be quantifying it as good investment or bad investment. Certainly, U.S.A. has always shown a strong leadership quality but certainly this was no leadership quality decision rather an investment which cannot be used out or a loan which cannot be retained back for a long duration of time. President Obama is certainly the most generous person that one can look up to in International Politics, who brought in light that color is not matter of discrimination in U.S.A. Why did not he comment upon the racist act traversing across Australia while Indian were being attacked all over. Leadership quality certainly brings about a strong management on its own.

Countries where a strong management resides, where job is a priority and if strategic choice is to be made, it should be with investment to bring about small scale industries which can be integrated to a large scale industry with a legitimate payoff. Articles like clothes, furniture, basic electronic items such as a torch, etc. can be assembled right at home and do not require an expert performing it for anyone. All government needs to develop is a feasible supply chain where resources can be collected from people of small scale such as farmers, small scale production of diodes, etc. who can be their suppliers whereas, people who were hired as truck drivers for transportation industry which again can be brought in completely by government investments creating jobs again and be delivered by the help of police supervision and be collected and sold out to international market. This business can be implemented in few of states and the profit earned from it can be reverted back to investments for other states. At least, this can provide more efficient employment in case of U.S.A. Whereas, to gain capital, government can put up some 10-20% stock of company holding as public issues in international market in countries like India where market is upcoming one and since it would be government owned subsidy so it can be trusted as well. No doubt, some regulatory procedures might take time but that can earn better payoff then any other investment like demonstration of leadership quality for some country which has been recorded for highest destructive and militant attacks and support. No doubt, by creating jobs in U.S. Obama can help out people of Pakistan who can send back some money back their homes. Simple application of low investment could have yielded so much to U.S.A. but no doubt, simple things are difficult to comprehend for experts which U.S. has always supported.
