Management relates to the responsibilities of a manager for
acquiring, organising, controlling and managing resources within an organisation. Management also involves the responsibility for developing plans and for
directing work as well as looking after the logistical aspects
of the organisation such as staffing levels, accommodation, approval of
leave, and so on.
Management responsibilities are acquired by
virtue of an appointment. It is therefore important to understand
the difference between leadership and management. Management authority
comes from an appointment in an organisation. Leadership authority results
from personal qualities and attributes.
