1. Should one be effective first before efficient or is it the other way around? Justify your
answer with citations.
ANSWER: “Management is doing things right, leadership is doing the right thing.” (Peter
Drucker). Simply, management means efficiency, leadership means effectiveness. Doing
the right thing isn’t enough anymore. Nor is just doing things right-Laura Stack.
This encompasses a different mindset depending on what situation this may be applicable.
Effectiveness should come first. Efficiency becomes a condition of survival. If you're not
effective, then you are wasting your time. Even if you are just practicing a new skill, you
should use good form and employ your full attention in order to master it as quickly as
possible. For example, a school head must be effective in a way that his subordinates must
follow his lead and command. He must do the right thing in managing the school,
implementing rules and regulations, providing support for the teachers and supervising
well to benefit the whole institution. When he tends to be an effective school head, his
management in terms of resources in school will be efficient. Effectiveness is the primary
need of the company or institution to provide desired result or outcome empowered by
their mission and vision.
2. Which among the factors influencing management have the most impact in
businesses in the Philippines? Why do you think so?
ANSWER: The factors influencing management that have the most impact in the businesses
in the Philippines are the stakeholders and leaders because it will help you define the

4. Based on your judgment, which among the ten roles of management are the most
and least important role in a company? Justify your answer.
ANSWER: On my judgement,among the ten roles of management cited by Henry Mintzberg
1990, the most and least important role in a company is the leader. this is the foundation
where you provide leadership skill for your team,your organization and the whole
department perhaps, and being a leader it’s your task to manage the performance and
responsibilities of everyone in the role group. Being a leader, coined to be a critical role
because you're dealing with interactions with employees and clients. Others are important
too but today that seems to be the one that is currently getting the most buss or
recognition.
