Topic: 01 - Managing & Manager’s Job
Who is a Manager
Manager woh shakhs hota hai jo planning, organizing, leading aur
controlling ke zariye logon, paise, waqt aur material jese resources
ko use karta hai taa ke specific goals hasil kiye ja saken.
Real-Life Example:
Ek school principal ko sochiye jo manager ka kaam karta hai. Woh
school year plan karta hai, teachers aur staff ko organize karta hai,
meetings lead karta hai, aur discipline aur academic success ensure
karta hai.
What is Management
Management doosron ke kaam ko coordinate aur oversee karne ka
process hai taa ke organization ke goals efficiently aur effectively
hasil kiye ja saken.
Effectiveness – Sahi kaam karna (goal achieve karna)
Efficiency – Kaam ko sahi tareeqe se karna (resources ka
aqalmandi se istemal)
Effectiveness vs. Efficiency
Effectiveness ka matlab hai ke goal hasil ho gaya.
Efficiency ka matlab hai ke kam resources (waqt, paisa, effort)
mein woh goal hasil ho gaya.
Example:
Agar aap exam ki tayari kar rahe hain:
Effectiveness – Aap important topics parh ke achi marks lete hain.
Efficiency – Aap kam waqt mein smart techniques use karke
parhte hain (summaries, past papers).
Best case: Ek business ko dono hona chahiye – effective bhi aur
efficient bhi.
Example:
Ek factory agar 5 workers se 100 chairs banaye to woh efficient
hai. Agar wohi workers 150 chairs banayein to woh efficient bhi
hai aur effective bhi.
