進(jìn)入21世紀(jì)，似乎我們工作和生活的方方面面都在國(guó)際化、全球化。新技術(shù)、新理念不斷涌入，想要做一個(gè)管理者也顯得不那么容易了。經(jīng)理們需要不斷接受新興的技術(shù)和理念，否則就有可能會(huì)成為不太受歡迎的seagull manager了。

Seagull Manager is a term first dating back to an 1988 Marketing article by Michael Madison, used to describe a management style of interacting with employees only when a problem arises, making hasty decisions about things they have little understanding of, then leaving others to deal with the mess they leave behind.

Seagull Manager（海鷗經(jīng)理）這一說法的出現(xiàn)始于1988年邁克爾·麥迪遜所寫的一篇有關(guān)市場(chǎng)營(yíng)銷的文章，指那種出現(xiàn)問題了才跟員工溝通的管理模式，管理者對(duì)于自己不太了解的事務(wù)匆忙做出決策，然后把爛攤子留給其他人來處理。

The term became more popular through a joke in Ken Blanchard's 1999 book Leadership and the One Minute Manager: "Seagull managers fly in, make a lot of noise, dump on everyone, then fly out."

這個(gè)說法在1999年因?yàn)榭?布蘭查德的一本書《領(lǐng)導(dǎo)與一分鐘經(jīng)理》中的形象描述而更加走紅，書里是這樣寫的：“海鷗經(jīng)理們飛進(jìn)來，制造了好多噪音，把每個(gè)人給說一遍，然后又飛走了。”
