Wifey told me about her conversation with her soon to be left employer which come to the point when her boss ask her whether the goals set by the future company achievable or not. She did reply that last year the department that she will be joining soon over hit their quotas or over achieve. Well her boss just retorted with “Last year was a good year”.
In my opinion, that remark is lil bit not that too professional. Why? Because first of all still a proper unit cohesion, planning, organization and execution of the plan required to achieve(or over achieve in this case) whatever goals. So for wifey roles in her new company soon, she needs to plan, organizing, controlling, commanding and co-ordinating (as far as I remembered my Management Principles subjects).
Okay, basically the roles that I’ve mentioned above is the summarize of th 14 Henri Fayol’s Management Principles. So for wifey what she has to do (again) is:
PLAN = Examining the future and preparing the action plan. The element of strategy. So reading financial /budget report/forecast is a must for wifey 
)
ORGANIZE = build up structure, material and human resource
COMMAND = To maintain the activity among the personnel
COORDINATE = Binding together, unifying and harmonizing all activity and effort.
CONTROL = Seeing that everything occurs in conformity with established rules and expressed command.
Wifey is entering a new era of challenges, work scopes and responsibilities where her judgment or decision will has impact on her unit or department. I wish her a very best of luck and yeah, it is my responsibility also to support or assists her in term of some advice or perhaps just be a good listener.
But there’s no way I want to read those financial/budget reports or forecast and give wifey the summary.
