Product Description

Effective management involves optimizing an organization’s mind (e.g., strategy, human resources, innovation), money (e.g., profit, financing, financial control), and market (e.g., products, relationships with customers and suppliers) to achieve organizational goals. Peter Drucker, regarded as the father of modern management, has outlined three giant steps that effective managers should take as their first approach to most business situations. They are:
    
Step 1: Analysis of facts
    
Step 2: Allocation of resources
    
Step 3: Decisions and actions
As this article will show, effective management requires managers to do more than apply these three steps as some sort of ready-made formula. A must read for first-time managers or managers new to an organization or project who need to approach management as both a science and an art!
