Unwritten rules of management.

foreword.

Ever since I came to Raytheon in 1972, was an honor for me to work as an engineer in the shops, in the departments of study materials, processing, manufacturing and quality departments, systems integration and planning, manage the programs and go through all steps of the development of managerial art and .

For me it was always important to listen carefully to others and remains so to this day. Early in his career, I developed the practice of recording tips and celebrate their thoughts as to work more efficiently. Especially my interest in aiming for continuous improvement of relations with customers and internally. This helped me, my belief in the need to keep learning for life.

I gathered all my notes, and once they are useful to me for the story a group of young scientists and engineers about the lessons that I learned from your practice management.
Feedback in the discussion inspired me and my unwritten rules of management began to take shape, until it became impossible until they either change or add.

Rule 10, I suggest ' to honor ' and I'm happy to do it here and now. These rules - the fusion of the best experiences of my life and experiences of people from whom I learned and what I've heard or read. For me, these rules - an anthology of common sense, and I want to thank everyone who helped rules become so.

I also appreciate the feedback. Let me know what you think about these rules. My address is -. William_H_Swanson @ Raytheon. com. And yes, I did read your mail.

Enjoy.
