Introduction

Analyzing and Organizing

◦Analyzing and Organizing are essential for any level of management. These are the managerial tasks that help with decision making and ensuring that decisions that are made will be followed within the organization.

Planning, Scheduling and Negotiating◦Planning and scheduling may seem like boring managerial tasks, but they are essential to strategic management. These types of tasks ensure that the division, department or organization will be punctual and able to function under the budget set by the organization. Negotiating is something that may seem confrontational to some individuals, but is a skill that managers need to have to be effective and does not necessarily have to be handled in a confrontational manner.

Provisioning and Overseeing

◦A manager must be in a position where they are able to provision their staff to get their job accomplished. Not having the right tools or materials to get the job done means that the company is not being effective. Overseeing means that a manager is ensuring that the employees are being effective for the company in supporting the company’s strategy and mission.

Administering and Delivering

◦Managerial tasks and administering go hand in hand in most people’s minds. Administration are those little tasks and paperwork that keeps things going correctly for the department or division of the manager that stays on top of these tasks. Delivering is important as a manager must be able to make good on any promised made by them or by the company to keep customers and clients happy and loyal.
