Management by Exception

Management by Exception is a management style where the managers intervene only when their employees fail to meet their performance standards. If the work is getting done as required, the Managers will not interfere. On the contrary, they will necessarily intervene and set right things if things were falling apart. This also means that the Manager has to intervene when work is not carried out ethically or whenever he sees a injustice being carried out.

MBE is hailed as a management style or belief that gained prominence in the late 20th century. But this is not something quite new to Indian Culture,

"Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya
Glanirva Bhavathi Bharatha,
Abhyuthanam Adharmaysya
Tadatmanam Srijami Aham'.
-Bhagavad Gita (Chapter IV-7)

Thus spoke Lord Krishna to Arjuna in Bhagavad Gita. A loose translation will read as "Whenever there is decay of righteousness and a rise of unrighteousness then I manifest Myself!"

Is this not Management by Exception??
