2.Middle Managers and Knowledge Workers Just below the top management level, most
companies have a layer of middle managers and knowledge workers. Middle managers
provide direction, necessary resources, and performance feedback to supervisors and team
leaders. Because they focus on a somewhat shorter time frame, middle managers need more detailed information than top managers, but somewhat less than supervisors who oversee day-to-day operations. For example, a middle manager might review a weekly sales summary for a three-state
area, whereas a local sales team leader would need a daily report on customer sales at a single location. In addition to middle managers, every company has people called knowledge
workers. Knowledge workers include professional staff members such as systems analysts, programmers, accountants, researchers, trainers, and human resource specialists.
Knowledge workers also use business support systems, knowledge management systems,
and user productivity systems. Knowledge workers provide support for the organization’s basic functions. Just as a military unit requires logistical support, a successful
company needs knowledge workers to carry out its mission.
