Management -Saas (mother-in-law) and Bahu (daughter-in-law)
Introduction
Management is a word which is not confined to mere organizations .It is a word which has very wide meaning and is used in all walks of life. It is essential in family, in student life, in government etc. In family, our mother acts as finance/co-ordination manager because she balances the income, expenditure, relations and also acts as HR manager because she harmonises the atmosphere in the family. She also acts as event manager because whenever there is any function in the family she manages with full vigor. Students also require to manage the time for preparing their subjects in the given time period. Government also requires management for its various departments and organizations and so on. Actually whenever there is problem, there is requirement of management. Human beings face problems in each and every aspect of their lives and hence the need for effective management.
The Problem and Solution with Management
Now the problem which I am going to highlight here is the problem of most of the young and old ladies whether they are educated or illiterate and that problem starts after the marriage or when the young ladies go to their in-laws. This problem can said to be mutual. What I am observing in the society these days that whether the family is nuclear or joint, Mother-in –law is good or bad she is always seen and felt as a big problem for the young ladies. So what I suggest to the young ladies that they should learn Saas-bahu management and all the universities should start a new specialization in MBA and that is Saas –Bahu management.Saas-Bahu management should not be taken in negative sense because management means that both the parties should be happy, the young ladies will learn how to keep their mother-in-law happy ensuring their interest.
Benefits of Saas (mother-in-law)-Bahu (daughter-in-law) Management
If all the universities start a subject in MBA Saas-Bahu management, then we can focus the problem of almost half of the world population. The old ladies will be happy because they are very well managed and are getting respect and the young ladies are happy because they are keeping their interests in place. It will also help in growth and development of the economy because there will be less family disputes, people will more concentrate on productive work which results innovations and more productivity, more GDP, more economic growth and more welfare of the masses, then our country can grow and soon we will be in the list of developed countries.
It will reduce illiteracy in the country because I am sure when universities will start the course all ladies whether belong to rural or urban area would take admission in that. So it will cause the spread of education.
The subject requires more inputs from psychologists and philosophers, thereby a possible compromising situation may take place-“Trials cost nothing”
Conclusion
The need of saas-bahu management is required only when there is problem and if we eliminate the problem then there is no need of such management course. I think we should harmonize the relations in the family, every relation should get respect which it deserves and then there will be no problem.
