Management is the attainment of organizational goals in an effective and
efficient manner through planning, organizing, leading, and controlling
organizational resources.
Planning means defining goals for future organizational performance and
deciding on the tasks and use of resources needed to attain them.
Organizing involves the assignment of tasks, the grouping of tasks into
departments, and the assignment of authority and allocation of resources
across the organization.
Leading is the use of influence to motivate employees to achieve
organizational goals.
Controlling means monitoring employees' activities, determining whether
the organization is on target towards its goals, and making corrections as
necessary.
Our formal definition of an organization is a social entity that is goal
directed and deliberately structured.
Social entity means being made up of two or more people. Goal directed
means designed to achieve some outcome.
Deliberately structured means that tasks are divided and responsibility for
their performance is assigned to organization members.
Organizational effectiveness is the degree to which the organization
achieves a stated goal.
Organizational efficiency refers to the amount of resources used to
achieve an organizational goal. The ultimate responsibility of managers is
to achieve high performance, which is the attainment of organizational
goals by using resources in an efficient and effective manner.
