Management by Perkele (MBO) is a Swedish expression referring to a Finnish approach to leadership that prefers swift decision making over prolonged pondering of many alternatives before making a decision. Aesop's fable of the Fox and the Cat is applicable.
Management by Perkele is in contrast to Swedish consensus decision-making, wherein management involves everyone prior to making a final decision.
The name is derived from the word Perkele, a Finnish profanity, suggesting its being yelled repeatedly by top managers using this approach.
