Overview of Management

Defining and Explaining Management 1. What is Management? 2. Some simple definitions

Some definitions Follet: “Management is the art of getting things done through people” Appley (1981) “Management is the accomplishment of results through the efforts of other people.” Hill and McShane (2008) define management as “the art of getting things done through people in organizations”.

More elaborate definitions “Terry (1994): Management is a distinct process, consisting of planning, organizing, directing and controlling performed to determine and accomplish objectives by the use of people and other resources. Robbins (2003): The term management refers to the process of getting things done effectively and efficiently, through people. Kreitner’s (2000): Management is the process of working with and through others to achieve organizational objectives in a changing environment.

More definitions Rue & Byers (2003): Management is the process of deciding how best to use business resources to produce goods and provide services. Griffen (2000) points out that: Management is a set of activities (including planning and decision making, leading, and controlling) directed at organizational resources (human, financial, physical and information) with the aim of achieving organizational goals in an efficient and effective manner.

Cont. definitions Daft and Marcic (1998): Management is the attainment of organizational goals in an effective and efficient manner through planning, organizing, leading and controlling organizational resources.

Some observations from definitions Management is an effort to seek organizational goals. Management involves achieving these goals through people and other resources. The job of management is performed through people. Management is the process whereby managers perform the functions of planning, organizing, directing and controlling to achieve stated goals. Consideration of an objective, either specifically stated or implied is a requisite of management.

Cont. Observations It seeks to maximize the use of resource in relation to the desired results. It is universal in character. Its principles are equally applicable in all fields: business, industry, education and government. Management is a unifying force. It integrates human and other resources to achieve desired objectives.

Management, therefore, concerns: determining objectives achieving objectives with a group of people and other resources through the process of planning, organizing, directing and controlling.

Some key words in definitions Goals Objectives resources effectiveness and efficiency

Goals and Objectives Goals are desired outcome for individuals, groups or entire organizations. A profit-oriented business, for example, might have a return-on investment goal; a hospital would have goals centred on patient care; an educational institution would establish goals for teaching, research and community service.

Human and Non-Human Human Human resources include managerial talent and labour. The human resource of an organization consists of its employees described in terms of their training, experience, judgment, intelligence, relationships and insight. Together these are known as the organization’s human capital resources. Non-human resources Financial, Physical and Information.

Efficiency and Effectiveness Effectiveness: The achievement of the organization’s goals. Choosing appropriate goals and achieving them. Doing the “right things” to help the organization attain its goals. Efficiency: Doing “things right.” It is an input-output relationship.
