Managing in a process-centered organization calls for a new mindset. We're dealing with work from a different slant. It's no longer simply a vertical, top-down, task-specific exercise. Management now involves broad-spectrum responsibility for facilitating the flow of work from left to right. Now, you're managing sideways. And it's a very different drill.
