Craftsmanship vs Modern Management

In this post, we will discuss about the differences about the Craftsmanship and Modern Management:

1. Distribution of Work: In craftsmanship, a single man manages everything whereas in modern management distribution of work-load is one of the major characteristic. In craftsmanship there is only 1 'tower' whereas in modern management there are many (refer to previous post)
2. In craftsmanship the person running the business should be the jack of all trades, whereas in Modern Management each person must have dexterity. The dexterity comes from the repetitive kind of job performed by each person of a modern organization. 
3. Craftsmanship generally provides high satisfaction to the person involved in it, whereas modern management generally leads to alienation because the person is only involved in a very small part of the whole production and distribution line.
4. In craftsmanship worker is the central figure of the business, whereas in modern management  the top positions in the hierarchy is not occupied by the worker.
5. In modern management, interdependency is quite evident as each process is connected to the other process which in turn is connected to some other. In craftsmanship all processes are united by the very person who runs the business.
6. In craftsmanship, skill is very important and so generally skill set is very high but in modern management, people involved are 'deskilled' because as they are involved in elemental form of work where generating or showing skill is very difficult.
7. In craftsmanship, there are no fixed process of business, whereas in modern management practices a structured way of processes are laid out beforehand.
8. In craftsmanship, no managers are required rather artists are more suitable, whereas modern management system is based on managers.
