Functions of management
The functions of management encompass the critical roles that management plays in an organisation. These functions include planning, which involves setting goals and formulating strategies to achieve them; organising, which entails arranging resources and tasks to meet these objectives; leading, the process of motivating, guiding, and influencing team members to execute the planned strategies; and controlling, a systematic process of setting standards, comparing actual performance with these benchmarks, and taking necessary corrective actions, if required. This comprehensive subject provides students with both the theoretical grounding and practical skills necessary to navigate and succeed in the complex world of management.
