"What management functions are?"

[lala1911]

Does anyone know a good response for this question? Our teacher told us there will be a question regarding management functions. I know the management functions although my book doesn't provide much detail when it comes to defining what management functions are.

There are 4 manangement functions:

1. Planning:
+ the starting of management process
+ involves the determination of an action to achieve the organisational goal in short-term as well as long-term
+ helps to visualise the future problems and possible solutions

2. Organising:
+ brings the resources together and use them properly
+ provides a suitable administrative structure and facilitates the proposed plan

3. Directing (Leading, influencing)
+ guiding activities and instructing the organisation members to work towards the fulfillment of the goals
+ increase productivity

4. Controlling:
+ establishing standards of performance
+ measuring work in progress and interpreting the results achieved
+ determine the next action and modify to meet the desired performance

Hope it helps somehow

Hi, I believe these above are the management roles - POLC.

Management functions are the key sectors or divisions within an LSO, that includes things like HR, IT, Finance, Operations, Marketing, R&D etc.
