    Direction: Study the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
    Management is known as “"the cornerstone of organizational effectiveness and is concerned with arrangements for the carrying out of organizational processes and the execution of work. There are many aspects to management in work organizations, but the one essential ingredient of any successful manager is the ability to handle people effectively"”. This definition emphasizes on the effectiveness of carrying out organizational processes and work activities. It further stresses on the importance of interpersonal skills in managing human resources. Professor Robbins focuses management as the coordination of work activities of others and monitoring their progress, while Kinicki and Kreitner defined management as the process of working ethically with and through others to achieve organizational objectives in an efficient manner. These definitions focus on the accomplishment of work through the efforts of others. Nevertheless, human resource is not the sole concern of management. Management is “"the process of assembling and using sets of resources in a goal-directed manner to accomplish tasks in an organizational setting”".
