The Tetrahedron

The tetrahedron is the first regular volume in space, geometrically defined by four points and six lines – four equilateral triangles. 

As one of the five platonic regular geometrical solids, the tetrahedron engenders the four others: octahedron, cube, icosahedron and dodecahedron. The tetrahedron is the simplest natural crystal. The tetrahedron is the electron bonding geometry of carbon, the backbone atom of organic molecules-hydrocarbon, sugar & protein. Simple, natural and organic, this potent structure exemplifies a coherent practical model applicable to human affairs. 

The tetrahedron is the seed-form of three dimensional structures. Its unique configuration can be applied to a dynamic and effective management system.      

The tetrahedron structure of management 

It is a management structure functioning with direct three-way intercommunication between the four essential departments of the organization, thereby eliminating miscommunication and delay. Synergetic in its dynamism, it emphasizes unity & facilitates adaptation to changing circumstances. 

As a multi-purpose monitoring system, it also applies to the different operational aspects of management from personal management to specific evaluation of task, product or project. It uses a unique and thorough twelve point evaluation process. The twelve points are equally distributed among the four areas of responsibility, according to their nature and purpose. 

It is a management system that provides space for the expertise and wisdom of senior executive resources. The tetrahedron structure incorporates and promotes co-operation and commitment. For motivation and quality performances, it encourages an equitable sharing of responsibilities and profits.
