The Power Pivot: Why Middle Management Matters More Than You Think

Ever felt caught between competing demands, pressured from above and below? This is the daily reality for middle managers, who occupy what Scott Mautz calls "the messy middle." Yet far from being stuck, these leaders sit at the nexus of organizational influence. Research from Boston Consulting Group reveals that nearly two-thirds of companies across 100 countries consider middle managers more vital than top executives. Why? Because they translate vision into action, connect strategy with execution, and hold the organization together during turbulent times. Middle managers aren't just passing through a career phase-they occupy the most strategically important position for driving meaningful change. The middle isn't a trap-it's where the real action happens, where you can influence everything without being responsible for everything. You may feel you control little, but you always control your attitude and make countless impactful decisions daily that ripple throughout the organization.
