It all started in year 1995 at Stanford University. Larry Page was considering
Stanford for graduation and Sergey Brin, a student of Stanford, was assigned
to show him around, by the next year both were working from their dorm
rooms, both built a search engine that used links to determine the
importance of individual pages on the World Wide Web. They called the
search engine Backrub.
Backrub was renamed Google. Over the next few years, Google caught
the attention of not only the academic community, but Silicon Valley
investors as well. In August 1998 Andy Bechtol sheim wrote Larry and
Sergey a check of $1,00,000 and Google Inc. was officially born. With
this investment, the newly incorporated team made the upgrade from
the dorms to their first office: A garage in California.
In the years that followed the company expanded rapidly hiring
engineers, building a sales team, Google outgrow the garage and
eventually moved to its current HQ (The Googleplex), California.
Today, with more than 85,000 employees in 50 different countries,
Google makes hundreds of products used by billions of people across
the Globe, from YouTube to Android and of course Google search.

Efficiency – It means doing the task correctly with minimum cost. Efficiency is
concerned with using lesser inputs for maximum output. The input resources are
money, materials, equipment and human resources.
Effectiveness and efficiency are two different terms but they both are interrelated.
It is important for management to achieve goals with minimum resources i.e as
efficiently as possible.
Effectiveness and efficiency are two sides of the same coin they must go hand in
hand.
FOR EXAMPLE- Ria is responsible for producing 100 units in a day , she produces 100
units but due to mishandling of machine it broke down. Though Ria produced 100 units
but at a higher cost, in this case Ria was effective but not effecient.

OBJECTIVES OF MANAGEMENT
In an organisation there are different objectives and management t has to achieve all
objectives in an effective and efficient manner. The objectives of management can be
classified as follows:

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
THEEXTRACL ASS.COM PAGE 9
Management has to achieve various objectives while considering the interest of all
stakeholders including shareholders, employees, customers and the government. The
main objective of any organisation must be to utilise human and material resources to
the maximum possible advantage.
Economic
Objective
B) Profit: Mere survival is not the motive of any organisation. The main motivating
factor in any business is profit therefore the management must ensure that the
organisation makes enough profit to cover cost and risk of the business. For
Example Ria has established a bakery, the cost that she incurs per cake is $10, so she
must sell her cake above$10 to make the sale profitable.
FOR EXAMPLE-Ria has established a bakery, the cost that she incurs per cake is ₹150, so
she must sell her cake above ₹150. I.e ₹200 to make her sale profitable. So, she earns a
profit of ₹50 .

C)Growth: Every organisation wants to grow in the big run. Management must use
the profits to expand and grow the business. Growth of the business can be
measured in terms of increased sales, number of employees, number of products,
market share etc.
2. Social objectives:
Social objective involves the creation of benefit for the society. Since business operates
in a society by utilizing its scarce resources, the society expects something in return.
This include:
3. Personal objective:
Personal objectives refers to the objectives which are related to the employees of an
organisation. Different people with different experiences and objectives become part of
the organisation to satisfy their different needs.

3. Management creates a dynamic organisation: A business runs in an environment
that is ever changing. People resist change and it’s the duty of the management to
help people by introducing them to the benefits of these changes, so that the
organisation is able to maintain its competitive edge
NATURE OF MANAGEMENT
Today the term ‘management’ has several different connotations that highlights various
aspects of its nature.
Over a period of time, management has grown into a dynamic subject with its own
characteristics. The study of management has evolved. However, one question that needs to
be addressed in regard to the nature of management, whether it is science or an art or both?

MANAGEMENT AS AN ART
Art is the skilful and personal application of existing knowledge to achieve desired results. It
can be learned through books, experience and observation. As art is concerned with
application of human creative skills and imagination its. Application will change/differ
person to person.
2. Personalised application: The use of basic knowledge differ from person to person. Art,
therefore is a very personalised concept. For ex. Two speakers, two actors, two dancers
will always differ.
3. Based on practise and creativity: Art involves the creative practise of existing
theoretical knowledge. For ex. All music is based on seven basic notes but a musician
use these notes differently in a certain manner.
II. Personalised application: There are various theories and principles of management
propounded by management thinkers, manager applies these principles and
knowledge in a given situation. A good manager works through a combination of
practice, creativity, imagination and innovation.
III. Based on practise and creativity: A manger applies this acquired knowledge in a
personalised and skilful manner in the light of the realities of a given situation.

CONCLUSION-The best managers are highly trained and educated with qualities such as
ambition , self motivation, creativity, and imagination. What distinguishes a successful
manager from a less successful manager is the ability to put these principles into practice.
MANAGEMENT AS A SCIENCE
1) Systematised body of knowledge: Scientific principles are based on a cause and effect
relationship.
3) Universal validity: Scientific principles have universal validity and application. For Ex. If
anything is dropped from a height it will only come downward due to gravity.
Based on the above features we can say that management also share some of the features of
science:

human factor is involved the outcome cannot be accurately predicted.
Therefore management is an inexact science.
MANAGEMENT AS A PROFESSION
According to Cambridge dictionary profession means “any type of work that needs
special training or a particular skill, often one that is respected because it involves a
high level of education.”
1. Well defined body of knowledge: All professions whether legal, accounting, medical
etc. are based on a well-defined body of knowledge
FOR EXAMPLE-To be a chartered Accountant (CA) a student is required to clear all the
examination which are conducted by ICAI.

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
THEEXTRACL ASS.COM PAG E 16
3. Professional association: All professions are affiliated to a professional association. The
association regulates entry and exit, grants certificate for practise and formulates code
of conduct. For Example a chartered accountant needs to get a registration number
from institute of chartered accounts of India (ICAI) to practice and audit books of
accounts.
4. Ethical code of conduct: All profession are bound by a code of conduct which guides
the behaviour of its members. For example all CA’s take the oath of ethical practise at
the time they enter the profession.
5. Service motive: The main motive of any profession is to give/provide dedicated and
committed service to its clients. For ex. The task of a lawyer is to ensure that it’s client
get justice.
II. Restricted entry: Anyone can be called a manager irrespective of one’s education
qualification. There is no such restrictions on being assigned as a manager. But
professional knowledge and training is considered to be a desirable qualification.
IV. Ethical code of conduct: Though AIMA has laid down a code of conduct to regulate
activities of its members. But its membership is not compulsory for all managers.
V. Service motive: The basic motive of any organisation is profit maximisation. Though
organisation serves the society in many ways but the primary motive of any business
is to earn profits.
CONCLUSION- Management is not exactly a profession because it does not meet the exact
criteria of a profession.

1. Growth in size: As an organisation grows in size, the number of people
employed also increase. At times, it may become difficult to integrate their
efforts and activities. For management, it is necessary to ensure that all
individuals work towards the common goals of the organisation. But employees
may have their individual goals also. Thus, harmonise individual goals and
organisation gals through coordination.
