    Dr. Lynn Walker of Walker Management Psychologists is developing a management process called Boundary Management®.  Dr. Walker and this author developed versions of this thesis over a period of years while working with mutual clients.  Boundary Management® and Limit Theory™ are both based on John Carver's work (The Policy Governance Fieldbook, Boards That Make A Difference: A New Design for Leadership in Non-Profit and Public Organizations). They lead to the concept that managing outcomes is best served by clearly defining the desired outcome and establishing behavioral limits around the persons asked to produce those outcomes, but clearly not directing their every action.  In this manner, the full creativity and resources of the employee can be unleashed.  See Boundary Management®.
