Organization and Management

Organization is a social unit of people that is structured and managed to meet a need or
to pursue collective goals. All organizations have a management structure that
determines relationships between the different activities and the members, and
subdivides and assigns roles, responsibilities, and authority to carry out different tasks.
Organizations are open systems--they affect and are affected by their environment.

Management, on the other hand, consists of the interlocking functions of creating


corporate policy and organizing, planning, controlling, and directing an organization's
resources in order to achieve the objectives of that policy. The objective of management
is to supervise the accomplishment of work of the subordinate employees and to give
necessary direction for getting the desired result for achieving the pre-determined
target. Efficient management largely depends on strong organisation.

The importane of Organization in our society

Organizations exist to allow accomplishment of work that could not be achieved by


people alone. As long as the goals of an organization are appropriate, society will allow
them to exist and they can contribute to society. Also, organization is useful for society
because society wants to have some ethics or/rather want to implement some
resolution of living standard, so this kind of resolutions are implemented when
society get together in some  specific philosophy.

Organization also play a role into different societal subsytems like the private enterprise
(belongs to economy), political parties, the science of research and media organization,
and son on. Sometimes one sector of an organization obeys the operating code of one
subsystem whereas the other sector obeys the code of another subsystem. A very
obvious example is media organizations, where the editorial boards act on the operation
mode “publicity” whereas the publishing houses refer to the economic code. The same
holds true for universities, whose research departments are oriented towards truth and
understanding, whereas the activity of teaching relates to the system of education.
