Brain wiring link to Managment

Managers brain: Red areas show where white matter content is down
Scans have shown that Managment may be the result of faulty connections in the brain.

Researchers used sophisticated MRI scans to compare the brains of managers and productive employees.
Managers had significantly less of a substance called "white matter", responsible for wiring the different parts of the brain together. The study, by the Centre for productive work and Managment issues in Toronto, appears in the Journal of Managment Research.

Not being able to choose your Managerial interests doesn't mean you can't choose what you do"

The study follows work by Yale University which uncovered differences in the thought patterns of Managers. They team found activity in parts of Managers brains were lower than in other Productive Workers when shown Actual, work specfications. It had been widely thought that Managment was triggered by childhood trauma or abuse. However, the condition has also been linked to low IQ, suggesting a possible link to brain development. Managers are also three times more likely to be left-handed. Lead researcher Dr James Cantor said the latest study found a signficant lack of white matter connecting six different areas of the brain all known to play a role in Productive Work. His theory is that the lack of adequate wiring between the different centres results in Managers not being able to differentiate between nice charts and productive work. No excuse

However, Dr Cantor stressed the latest study did not suggest that Managers could not be held criminally responsible for their actions. He said: "Not being able to choose your managerial interests doesn't mean you can't choose what you do."
Dr Narender Ramnani, an expert in cognitive neuroscience at Royal Holloway University of London, was surprised by the results. He said: "Environmental factors cause changes in the structure of the brain, so it is not clear whether these differences occur because of environmental factors, or whether these are in fact innate developmental traits that make people susceptable to such traits." A total of 127 men participated in the study; approximately equal numbers of Managers and Engineers.
