some organizational goal.

specialized based on organizational goals, division
goals, departmental goals, and team goals. It is up to
the manager to recognize which goals need to be
planned within his or her individual area.
5. Organizing
The second of the managerial functions is organizing.

distribute resources and organize her employees
according to the plan. Manager will need to identify
different roles and ensure that she assigns the right
amount of employees to carry out her plan. She will
also need to delegate authority, assign work, and
provide direction so that her team can work towards
higher production without having barriers in their
way.
6. Leading
The third function of management is leading. In this step,
Manager spends time connecting with her employees on an
interpersonal level. This goes beyond simply managing
tasks; rather, it involves communicating, motivating,
inspiring, and encouraging employees towards a higher
level of productivity. Not all managers are leaders. An
employee will follow the directions of a manager because
they have to, but an employee will voluntarily follow the
directions of a leader because they believe in who he or she
is as a person, what he or she stands for, and for the manner
in which they are inspired by the leader.
7. Controlling
Controlling is the final function of management. Once
a plan has been carried out the manager evaluates the
results against the goals. If a goal is not being met, the
manager must also take any necessary corrective
actions to continue to work towards that goal.
