Mushroom management 蘑菇管理
Mushroom management is a style of management in which the personnel are not familiar with the ideas or the general state of the company, and are given work without knowing the purpose of this work. Open-book management is the opposite of mushroom management.
“蘑菇管理”是针对不熟悉公司理念和一般状况的职场新人的一种管理方式。新人被分配工作时经常不知道意图。与之相对应的是“开放式管理”。
Mushroom management means that workers' curiosity and self-expression are not supported. The employees often have no idea what the company's overall situation is, because the leaders tend to make all the decisions on their own, without asking anyone else to give their opinion. This problem can occur when the manager does not understand the employees' work (in a programming company, for example) and therefore cannot communicate effectively with the employees.
按照“蘑菇管理”的方式，员工的好奇心和自我表现不会得到支持。员工也经常不清楚公司的整体状况，因为公司领导们倾向于自己制定所有决策，不询问其他任何人的意见。当管理者不明白员工的具体工作（比如在编程公司）时，就会发生这种问题，于是也无法与员工有效沟通。
