Making experts of your employees

ALERT (All Leading, Expert, Responsible, in teams) is a principle for lean product development discovered by a researcher Allen Ward which explains that each person must be a expert in his/her area and should take the leadership of the team when such situation comes regardless of the rank/level of education thus helping in company's growth. Companies should terminate those managers who often demotivates employees and slows down the processes. The managers are required to perform the teaching and organizing role rather than the command and control roles which help in making the experts. ALERT principle helps in achieving company's goal to develop people and become fast and flexible. An employee should learn to be both a leader and a follower by this one can become an expert at their jobs. Managers should assign goals for their subordinates and ask for their proposal and the subordinates must take the assigned responsibility seriously and explain their ideas to meet the goals.
