Solution

Management is primarily about developing the skills, knowledge, and potential of the people working in an organisation. It is not just about handling machines, tools, or materials, but about leading, guiding, and motivating people to work efficiently towards the goals of the organisation.

Machines and resources cannot function on their own; they need people to operate them. Therefore, the role of management is to focus on human resources, help them grow, train them, and ensure their talents are used in the best possible way.

Hence, it is rightly said that management is the development of people, not the direction of things.
