Question

What good examples of management have you seen/experienced? Based on your readings, which management theory do you think these positive examples resembled most? Provide a rationale for your responses.

Answer 1

An example of management; that I have seen is in the functioning of the school; it is a hierarchical centralized organizational structure, where there is top management and all the decisions are made by the head of the school i.e. the principal and information flows down from the top, through layers of middle layers the teachers and the staff the lowest levels i.e. the students. The theory of management used here is the; administrative management theory as this theory establishes the management of the school leading to the achievement of the goals of the organization i.e. the school.
