A situation in which there is “too much money chasing too few goods” is often described as demand-pull inflation. When demand increases faster than industry’s ability to satisfy that demand, prices will increase. During the Vietnam War, for example, government spending for military goods served to increase the purchasing power of many Americans since it was not accompanied by a tax increase. Meanwhile, factories that might have been producing consumer goods turned to the production of goods for use in the war. The result was an increase in the demand for goods and services at the very time that industry’s ability to satisfy that demand was being redirected. Since it was not possible to increase output to satisfy demand, prices rose.

During periods of inflation the cost of living increases. Therefore it is necessary to earn more just to maintain your present living standard. How much of an increase is necessary? If the cost of living increased by 10 percent in 1991, a person with a $20,000-a-year income in 1990 would have to earn $22,000 ($20,000 + 10 percent) in 1991 just to stay even. Certain groups, such as those living on fixed retirement pensions, cannot increase their incomes enough to offset the effects of inflation. When this happens their standard of living will decline. To protect people on fixed incomes, Social Security benefits are adjusted for the effects of inflation.

There were good managers, of course, long before anyone ever studied management.
The field of management has drawn on sociology, psychology, economics, and other disciplines, and it is in these areas that the manager can learn from study as well as from experience and by trial and error. He still needs plenty of intelligence, common sense, and business judgement – and even the inspired hunch may still take place. But the knowledge of what others have learned about the various aspects of management will help him use his native abilities more effectively.
Future managers will need more education than those of the past. A knowledge of the humanities will be needed for a balanced viewpoint. Scientific knowledge will be required to distinguish between good and bad expert advice, for the area of management is replete with disagreements between experts.

Some basic characteristics seem to apply to managers in all types of organizations; they include hard work on a variety of activities, preference for active tasks, direct personal relationships.
