TEXT A
INTRODUCTION TOMANAGEMENT
(1) Management is the administration of an organiza­tion, whether it is a business, a not-for-profit organization, or government body. Management includes the activities of setting the strategy of an organization and coordinat­ing the efforts of its employees to accomplish its objectives through the application of available resources, such as finan­cial, natural, technological, and human resources. The term “management” may also refer to those people who manage an organization.
(2) Management is a universal phenomenon. It is a very popular and widely used term. All organizations — business, political, cultural or social are involved in management be­cause it is the management which helps and directs the vari­ous efforts towards a definite purpose.
(3) Management involves creating an internal environ­ment: — It is the management which puts into use the vari­ous factors of production. Therefore, it is the responsibility of management to create such conditions which are condu­cive to maximum efforts so that people are able to perform their task efficiently and effectively. It includes ensuring

UNIT 1. INTRODUCTION TO MANAGEMENT
availability of raw materials, determination of wages and sal­aries, formulation of rules & regulations etc.
(4) Therefore, we can say that good management includes both being effective and efficient. Being effective means do­ing the appropriate task. Being efficient means doing the task correctly, at least possible cost with minimum wastage of resources.
Features of Management
(5) Management is an activity concerned with guiding hu­man and physical resources such that organizational goals can be achieved. Nature of management can be highlighted as:
(6) Management is Goal-Oriented: The success of any management activity is assessed by its achievement of the predetermined goals or objective. Management is a purpose­ful activity. It is a tool which helps use of human & physical resources to fulfill the pre-determined goals.
(7) Management integrates Human, Physical and Financial Resources: In an organization, human beings work with non-human resources like machines, materials, finan­cial assets, buildings etc. Management integrates human ef­forts to those resources. It brings harmony among the human, physical and financial resources.
(8) Management is Continuous: Management is an ongo­ing process. It involves continuous handling of problems and issues. It is concerned with identifying the problem and tak­ing appropriate steps to solve it.
(9) Management is all Pervasive: Management is required in all types of organizations whether it is political, social, cul­tural or business because it helps and directs various efforts towards a definite purpose. Thus clubs, hospitals, political parties, colleges, hospitals, business firms all require man­agement. Whenever more than one person is engaged in work­ing for a common goal, management is necessary. Whether it is a small business firm which may be engaged in trading or a large firm, management is required everywhere irrespec­tive of size or type of activity.
