Quality Management postulates that the system of an institution is vital for staff performance. At the time of crises, the
quality framew ork advises a system approach, it is the system that overw helmingly is the main source of problem. The
quality framew ork gives special attention to the processes that produce substandard services. It is a comprehensive and
cooperative management so that it is against managing each component as though it w ere separate from the others and
w arns steps that pit the person against the system and against other persons. In micro-management processes are ignored
and persons get undue importance. A micro-leader adopts generally the policy of 'divide & rule', so that w orkers are derisive
tow ards each other.
Quality Management believes in personal responsibility, but goes beyond that concept to consider the especial
responsibilities of those w ho manage for optimum system performance. A proactive concern for how people respond to
managerial actions is crucial to the success of quality management, w hich is w hy the theory emphasis the need for
managers to understand elementary principles of psychology, statistics and decision analysis to analyze the ground realities
during some decision-making/interactive process. In micro management, there is gulf betw een thoughts, w ords & deeds of
leader. A micro-manager manipulates persons/situations for optimum performance, so that performance is unstable and
volatile. A consistent performance of students/teachers is inevitable requirement of educational institutions, so that micro-
management means failure.
Law of Causation is universal phenomenon of life. The law categorically states that an outcome is inevitably based on some
antecedent, that is, there is mean-end duality. Means are antecedents; they are necessary precondition for ends. An end
can be materialized through right or w rong mean. Human life repeatedly faces the dilemma of right mean vs. w rong mean.
Sometime, an end become unachievable, seemingly or really, through right means consequently means are generally
comprised by effort-makers. For example, profit is an essential end for institutional viability; it can be achieved through
w rong means such as rent-seeking, kick-backs, manipulation of teachers and manipulation of students. Quality management
proposes w ise mean-end framew ork for goal materialization. In micro-management means are not decisive during goals
3. realization process so that means are compromised now and then. Micro Management is derisive tow ards law of caus ation
so that it breeds mistrust among stakeholders and fails ultimately.
It is generally said, justice delayed is justice denied / justice hurried is justice buried. At institutional level procrastination or
haste are tw o great menaces that disturb institutional performance, now and again. Micro Management is unable to tackle
these issues due to non-system thinking. The solution lies in systematic thinking tow ards time efficiency / information
efficiency, these factors are vital tools of quality management against haste or procrastination.
The end-user of a service is alw ays decisive for the survival of institution. Parents are decisive for the continual existence of
educational institution. Quality Management gives due importance to the requirements of all parents especially responsible
parents. On the other hand, Micro Management gives importance only to reactive and affluent parents. The situation is not
tenable, so that institution fails eventually.
