The result all too often is sub-optimal performance and eventual burnout – the exact opposite of what everyone involved would intend.

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings This research paper concentrates on the impact that the managerial characteristics of age, educational background, and in-company tenure and in-role tenure have on a manager's ability to handle paradoxical priorities. The results reveal that an organization's strategic paradoxes are most effectively managed by older managers and by managers with longer tenure in their role and at the company overall. Unexpectedly, managers with an economics/business educational background were found to manage paradoxes less well than those with other educational backgrounds.
