Four Functions of Management
The management process consists of four base functions, namely planning, organizing, leading and
controlling. These functions are the managers tools to achieve the organizational goals and objectives

ablish Goals
The frst step of thetanagoiwentp process sto identify specific company goals. This portion
«of the planning process should include a detailed overview of each goal, including the reason
for its selection and the anticipated outcomes of goal related projects. Where possible,
objectives should be described in quantitative or qualitative terms.

Establish Goal - related tasks
Each goal should have tasks or projects associated with its achievement.
For example, if goal is to raise profit by 25%, a Manager will need to outline the tasks
required t6 meet that objective. Example of the tasks might include increasing the sales staff
‘or developing advanced sales training techniques.
Prioritize Goals and Tasks is about ordering objectives in terms of their importance. The
tasks deemed most important will theoretically be approached and completed first. The
prioritizing process may also reflect steps necessary in completing a task or achieving a goal.
Scanned with CamScannerFor example if a goal is to increase sales by 25% and an associated task is to increase sales
staff, the company will need to complete the steps toward achieving that objective in
__ chronological order.
Create Assignments and Timelines
As the company prioritize projects, it must establish timelines for completing associated tasks
and assign individuals to complete them. This portion of the management planning process
should consider the abilities of staff members and the time necessary to realistically complete
assignments. For example the sales manager in this scenario may be given monthly earning
quotas to stay on track for the goal of increasing sales by 25%.
Establish Evaluating Methods
Ama should include a strategy for evaluating the progress toward
goal completion established time period. One way to do this through
requesting a monthly progress report from department heads.
Adentify Alternative Courses of Action
Even the best-laid plans can sometimes be thrown off track by unanticipated events. A
management plan should inelude a contingency plan if certain aspects of the master plan
prove to be unattainable. Alternative courses of action ean be incorporated into each segment
Of the planning process, or forthe plan in its entirety
Once you know your goals and priorities, you can establish a clear path to reaching them.»
Planning to meet your goals involves writing the steps that you ean take to accomplish each
goal. For some goals, this is not enough steps. If your steps are too broad, you will have to
redefine them more specifically later anyway, so Uoing it right the first time eliminates extra
steps later on,
Planning involves:
+ Evaluating the situation

In the absence of planning all the business activities of the organization will become’

Evaluate Job Performance
In evaluating performance, always compare actual performance to the performance standards
as determined at the beginning of the evaluation period.
Sources of feedback
The most common source of feedback isthe supervisor, but plans can include reviews from
peers and customers--anyone in contact with the employee. Some plans incorporate upward
review, ie., the employee's review of the supervisor.
Potential constraints on performance

things to look for:
*Lack of proper equipment “Excessive work load

*Slowness of action from internal or external sources
‘Inadequate performance of co-workers on whom individual's work depends
“Inadequate performance of subordinates or managers
*Unclear objectives or performance standards *Policy problems
“Inadequate communication within the organization
*Pressure from co-workers to limit performance
*Lack of authority to get things done
Should ratings be considered?
Most departments choose not to include ratings, as it increases the feeling of judgment;
threatens to reduce @ year's worth of performance to a single rating; and decreases the level
communication by focusing attention on the rating itself rather than the discussion. If ratings
are desired, it might be a good idea to roll out the plan for a year or so without them in order
to build trust in the plan and then add them to the procedure at a later date. Ifratings are
included, it is more meaningful to stay to the three levels listed below.

No matter what model or method is used, forecasting basically rests on human judgement. So, 9"
forecasts should not be considered as scientific instruments for being accurate and reliable. The
forecasts should serve as guidelines and not as indicators of certainty
While forecasting is as much an art as science, some steps can be taken to improve the quality of the
forecasts. The assumptions, upon which the model is based, must be objective and realistic. The
collection of relevant information and facts is equally important, Lack of adequate information is as
undesirable as redundant information, Forecasting requites high degree of skill and hence the process
ust be undertaken by specialists. The forecasting techniques must be fit the task. The technique
should not be complicated if the situation demands a simpler assessment
The Importance of forecasting
Forecasting is an important and necessary aid to planning and planning isthe backbone of effective
operations, Many organizations have failed because of lack of forecasting or faulty forecasting on
which the planning was based, The more accurately the future conditions can be predicted, the better
and more sound are the plans and high probability of success ofthese plans,
