The Function of Management is to Produce Results

“Management has to give direction to the institution it manages.  It has to think through the institution’s mission, has to set its objectives, and has to organize resources for the results the instituion has to contribute.  Management is indeed, J.B. Say’s “entrepreneur” and responsible for directiing vision and resources toward greatest results and contributions.

In performing these essential functions, management everywhere faces the same problems.  It has to organize work for productivity and achievement.  It is responsible for the social impact of its enterprise.  Above all, it is responsible for producing the results - whether economic performance, student learning, or patient care - for the sake of which each institution exists.”
