Management theory and applications.
Management is critical as an organization pursues its mission. There are many theories of management, but all agree that an effective organizational structure can facilitate the operation of a company. The author describes the typical functional areas found in most organizations (finance, operations, marketing, information systems, legal, and human resources); examines how the organization of tasks and people are inter-linked; and shows that administrators who have a working knowledge of management theory tend to be effective in the performance of their jobs.
