उत्तर १
- Applicability: Principles of management command applicability in all businesses in accordance with their suitability. The extent to which they can be applied entirely depends on the business and its requirements.
- Basic framework: Principles of management are not readymade solutions to business problems. Rather, they only provide the basic framework or guidelines to tackle different problems in different scenarios applicable to the business.
- Practical approach: Principles of management are developed through research results derived by handling real-life business problems. This means they are practical in approach and not just a theoretical analysis of problems.
- Adaptability: Principles of management are adaptable to most business problems with slight variations. Different organisations find different aspects of these principles useful. Managers find them significant in dealing with different decision making scenarios in real business.
उत्तर २
- Universally applicable: Principles of management have universal applicability, i.e. they can be applied to all organizations irrespective of their size, nature, and geographical location.
- Guidelines: Management principles are the guidelines for decision making in the course of management. That is, the principles of management are not applied as they are in real business situations; rather, they need to be modified by the manager according to the situation and the requirement.
- Formed by experimentation: Management principles are developed over time by exhaustive observations and experimentation by managers in different situations.
- Flexible: Management principles are not rigid. They are flexible enough to be used and molded by the manager according to the requirement of the situation.
- Influence Buman Behaviour: The principles of management are meant for influencing human behaviour and getting higher performance from them. They guide them on how to respond under different situations. For example, principles like division of work, unity of command, discipline, unity of direction, etc. help the managers to regulate the behaviour of operative employees. However, because of the complex nature of human behaviour, management principles might have limited application.
