Question : In a school, twelve pupils spend their summer breaks working in the library. One afternoon, they receive instructions to unload a cargo of new publications, stock the bookcases, and then remove all trash (packaging, paper etc). One student oversees the work by grouping the students, dividing the work, allocating quotas to each group, and creating reporting linkages between them. What aspect of management was addressed above?
Option 1: Planning
Option 2: Organising
Option 3: Staffing
Option 4: Directing
Correct Answer: Organising
Solution :
"Organizing" is the managerial function that was mentioned above. Essentially, organising refers to a procedure that combines resources, brings people together, and integrates them into one cohesive unit for the purpose of achieving predetermined goals.
"To organise a firm is to equip it with everything needed to its functioning," said Henry Fayol. "This includes raw materials, machines and tools, capital, and staff."
Hence, the correct option is 2.
