Mr. Maxwell, who devised and personally conducted these experiments, has found that the trouble was with the work- ers themeelves. In this series of articlen he not ouly polnts out the defects which chain the feet of many salaried employes to the lower rungs of the ladder, but tells Bow these fetters can be cast off.) Sixing Up a Proposition. Do you ever do any work without understanding what result you are expected to produce? Do you fre- quently carry out instructions liter- ally, and yet fail to accomplish the result desired? If so, it is a safe assumption that your faculty of analysis is not functioning smoothly. The lack of this important quality, sometimes referred to, in more simple English as “The ability to size up a proposition,” is one of the strongest fetters that chain the feet of the salaried employe to the lowest rungs of the business ladder. That fact has been made cvident to us by the tests we have been conducting for the past year at our plant. If you wish to test your own qualifications in that Nine Good Stores i ! direction, ask yourselt the following { additional questions: When vou receive instructions, and are told what results you are expect- ed to accomplish, do you accept said instructions blindly, or do you say {10 yourself, in effcct—"Let's see ex- actly what they want to accomplish. If 1 don't do any more than just what they have told me to do, will it really get the result they want?" Do you ever suggest more effectial means than those provided by your instructions for accomplishing the results which your work is intended to produce? Before you act, upon your OWR initiative, do you invariably consider all who will be affected and Who action? B Few of us possess instinctively the faculty of analysis. It is for the most part a faculty developed by training. Engineers, chemists, physicians and lawyers receive this training in their education for their respective pro- fessions. Those of us who have not been thus trained must train our- selves. 1t is frequently said that the best doctor is the one who can make the best diagnosis of a patient's case. The faculty of diagnosing business prob- lems is of scarcely less {mportance to a business man ar business woman. Moreover, it is not a requirement sole- 1y of those who have complex busi- ness problems to solve. It can be sald. with the greatest amount of emphasis, that the possession of this faculty is almost as vital to the suc- cess of the humblest worker of a business‘organization as it is to that of the big executive. Story of Harriman Told. The story is told that the late E. FL Harriman. while making an inspec- tion trip over the Harriman lines. was very much delighted by the precau- tions taken to insure the safety of passengers. In particular he noted at each division point that men with hammers tapped every car wheel on his train, for the evident purpose of should be appraised of your proposed THURSDAY, MARCH 31, 1921 point to cultivate the habit of rea- soning in regard to the nature and objects of your work. In other words, develop the faculty of sising up a proposition. You will find it mighty short cut to promotion. (Copyright, 192L. by Trade Press Feature Service, Inc.)
