Question

Is there any difference in planning, organising, staffing, directing and controlling of various organisations such as a school, a club, a restaurant and a steel plant?

To which characteristic of management is this case related?

Answer 1

No, there is no difference as far as the functions of management are performed by various organisations. In other words, all the functions of management are performed in a similar manner in all types of organisations, i.e., business or non-business.

This case is related with the characteristics of management, namely, ‘management is all pervasive’.
