Question

“Mind your men, men will mind everything for you.” Explain.

Answer 1

• Staffing is a very important activity of management.
• With the rise in development, several new types of industries producing thousands of goods and services have come up. This has made the modern day work of staffing more important as well as complex.
• An organization without staff is like a mere skeleton. Although machines can increase production but it is employees who create, operate and maintain machines. Hence, there can be no production without humans.
• In comparison to other factors of production, the future of a business enterprise depends much on its staff.
• Unlike machinery, furniture, etc. employees cannot be considered physical resources because they have feelings, self-respect, intelligence, understanding and different skills.
• So, if men i.e. employees are handled properly by fulfilling their emotional needs and keeping them motivated then they will take care of the entire organization and will take it to great heights.
