Fred Lewis Receives Giants World Series Ring - RealGM Wiretap The Giants had another World Series ring presentation Friday. In a private moment, GM Brian Sabean and manager Bruce Bochy gave a ring to Reds outfielder Fred Lewis. He did not appear in a single game for the Giants in 2010, but he was on the team's DL until his April 15 trade to Toronto, and the Giants felt he deserved one.

When they told me I was getting a ring, I said, 'You did all the work. I didn't do a thing. I was just there watching on TV.'

Adam Jones Defies Os Pie Ban With Cake After Walk Off Win - RealGM Wiretap

锘? Organizations usually see themselves as smoothly coordinated operations, even when they are not. A baseball analogy can help us see the point. Early in the 20th century Martin St. Louis Rangers Jersey , the Chicago Cubs team members Joe Tinkers, Johnny Evers, and Frank Chance were baseball's most celebrated double-play combination. Joe Tinkers would scoop up the ball at shortstop and wing it to Evers covering second base. Evers would touch the bag or tag the runner sliding towards him, then snap the ball to Frank Chance on first before the batter arrived at the bag. "Tinkers to Evers to Chance" became part of American folk idiom. I Like Company Most organizations start off in Tinkers to Evers to Chance mode. But soon Mika Zibanejad Jersey , more jobs are added to perform the same amount of work. It's like having all nine baseball players handle the baseball after it's hit. Runners will be safe at second and first when that happens. Why does this needless proliferation happen? Managers enjoy the prestige of having more people reporting to them. Insecure managers will use the bloated staff to cross-check for errors so that the manager looks good in the monthly reports. Also, compensation usually reflects the size of the reporting staff. Bureaucracy is just another way for managers to reward themselves at the expense of the organization and its stakeholders. Of course, incompetent managers will also reflexively hire more people when tasks are left uncompleted due to illness or temporary spikes in demand. But adding excess people to a process is often about as helpful as having a marathon runner wear combat boots. Hands Off! Many people in bureaucracies find job security in "owning" a piece of an important process. Let's say that this person has to check incoming orders for errors. Well, all organizations depend on incoming orders. Grab a piece of that process Rick Nash Jersey , and you'll be one of the last to see your job eliminated. Yet most of these order processes can be automated. Customers can place orders that go directly to shipping. Error-checking programs can prompt customers to make corrections before the order is finalized. If at First You Don't Succeed, Try, Try Again Left unchecked, organizations create redundancies that double or triple the workload ... and still fail. In part Michael Grabner Jersey , failure results because eliminating the last scintilla of errors may cost as much as eliminating the first 99.9 percent of errors. More likely, however, is that the bureaucracy is built up to make the managers feel safer. New process designs rarely reflect sophisticated knowledge of error-reduction methods. Rather, the designs allow senior bureaucrats to assign blame for errors to others. STALL ERASERS Standing Room Only At times Antti Raanta Jersey , unorthodox methods are needed to help workers break out of their bad habits. A venture capitalist noticed that his colleagues were happy to sit at their desks drinking coffee and filling out administrative reports. But money in venture capital comes from working with entrepreneurs. The venture capitalist's solution: Buy stand-up desks. None of his colleague.
