MANAGEMENT

Management by definition, is a function of planning, organizing, coordinating, directing and controlling. It is a process of managing people. Any managerial system at any managerial level is characterized in terms of these general functions. A number of different terms are for managers, including “director”, “administrator”, and “president”. The term “manager” is used more frequently in profit-making organizations while the other terms are used more widely in government and non-profit organizations such as universities, hospitals and social work agencies.

Any manager has some functions. He performs planning, leading and controlling.

Planning is choosing an organizational mission and then determining the course of actions (programs, projects, methods, systems, strategies) to achieve them. All other functions depend on this one, for they succeed without sound, thorough planning and decision-making.

Organizing is determining what resources and activities are required and delegating authorities to employees who are to carry out manager’s instructions.

Plans and organization are useless without the function of leading. Leading is getting employees to do the things the manager wants them to do.

Therefore, leader’s quality, style and power are very important. Almost everything a manager does involves decisions. The reason for making a decision is that a problem exists. In decision-making there is always some uncertainly and risk. These function can be performed in face-to-face manner or through written orders and job descriptions.

All the previous function are ineffective without the last one – controlling. Controlling is way of assuring that planned action is really performed. Forms of control commonly used by managers are: inspections, progress reports, and financial statements. For effective control there must first be planning, organizing and leading. Managing is a hard job. There is a lot to be done and relatively little time to do it.
