The Manager And His Environment
At any time of our lives we are members of one organization or another e.g. Church, School, College, Workplace etc. The organizations we belong to are diverse in many aspects for example size, structure, membership and ownership.
However these organizations all have certain things in common.
These include:
•A goal or purpose
•Program or method for achieving the goals.
•Plans to ensure effectiveness of the goals.
•Leaders/Managers who are responsible for helping the organization achieve its goals.
So the study of management involves the study of the work and performance of managers i.e. how organizations are managed so that they can achieve their goals.
