DEFINITIONS OF MANAGEMENT According to Mary Parker Follet , “Management is the art of getting things done through people.” According to Harold Koontz , “ Management is the art of getting things done through and with people in formally organised groups.”
Koontz & O’donnell defined Management as the accomplishment of desired objectives by establishing an environment favourable to people working in organised groups for achieving desired performance.
According to G.R. Terry , “Management is a distinct process consisting of planning, organizing, actuating and controlling, performed to determine and accomplish the objectives by the use of people and resources.”

Organizing The process of organising involves three steps: When a task is assigned to an executive, it is his responsibility to perform it and achieve the desired result. When responsibility is delegated to a person, the commensurate authority is also given to him. The executive to whom a responsibility is delegated is responsible to make a report about the performance to his superior.
Staffing The enterprise goals are achieved with the help of personnel only. Hence, proper selection of the personnel for proper job is essential in modern management. Staffing includes planning of manpower requirements, determining criteria for each job, remaining in constant touch with the sources of recruitment, arranging for their training, promotion, remunerations schemes, etc.
Directing A business does not begin to operate until the manager gives direction, which includes the work of guiding and supervising subordinates. The function is spread over different heads of departments. Whether the heads should adopt the authoritarian approach or a democratic approach or a free rein approach, that is to be decided by them in the light of existing circumstances.
Co-ordinating The main tools for securing better coordination are simplified organisation , harmonized policies, well designed methods of communication and personnel guidance. Without coordination there will be a chaos in the organisation .
