The Application Of Managment Theories In A Grocery Store

 

             there are always cash registers to be run, and cashiers to be managed. So therefore there must be managers to manage the cashiers. The mere difference between these managers is how they choose to see their employees in their working environment. In the following paper the distinction of different managing theories will be applied to the front end of a grocery store and associates. These three theories are the commonly known as X, Y and Z, theories.
             First off the front end must be analyzed at its current state. There are two types of associates on the front end those do want to be there and those do not want to be there. When looking at this from a manager's point of view you must be flexible in your analysis of the people that are working for you. In the first category you have the people that are over zealous and happy to be working, finding people like this at an average store will be seemingly challenging. Then you have the people that are either not motivated to be working with a happy attitude or those that are merely there merely for the paycheck at the end of the week.
             After deciding what the associates are more or less like you can start to determine the best and proper method of management styles. Seeing as how the majority of the employees are seemingly unhappy with their jobs let's start with the theory X style of managing. Theory X managers believe that their employees do not like what it is that they do and will avoid doing it at all costs and that they need to be coerced into doing any sort of job. This is saying that the theory X manager would distrust all the employees and think that at any given opportunity they would cease activity. Not to mention that they would have to be forced into getting their job done efficiently.
             This would prove true only in some instances at a grocery store. If this theory were to be applied, it would be in instances of a job lacking much desire.
