उत्तर
'Science is a systematized body of knowledge that explains certain general truths or the operation of general laws.'
The features which describe management as science are:
1. Systematic body of knowledge: Management has its own body of theories and principles that were developed over the years. In addition, it has its own vocabulary.
2. Theories based on experimentation: The principles of management have developed over the years based on repeated observations and experiments. However, as management deals with human behavior, no exact cause-and-effect relationship can be established.
3. Universal validity: Theories and principles of management are valid universally to a great extent. They can be used to impart basic knowledge and managerial skills to budding managers.
