AB  - The operation of political systems with
management systems in salary administration is
contrasted. This comparison will clearly show that
political systems are dysfunctional in salary
administration and should be replaced by
management systems. But bureaucrats who
operate with position power in political systems
are resisting the transition to management
systems. This is because these latter authority
structures are designed to hold superiors strictly
accountable for the quality of their performance.
Additionally, management systems require salary
administration decisions to be rooted in third wave
principles, ethical standards and objective analysis.
Efforts to perpetuate political systems as the
dominant authority structures in collegiate
organisations will promote waste, inefficiency,
mismanagement and sometimes fraud in salary
administration. These conditions undermine the
productivity and commitment of personnel in their
university.
