MANAGEMENT is the process of using organizational resources effectively and efficiently to achieve organizational goals through planning, organizing, leading/directing, and evaluating/controlling. Management education helps students understand various management theories, basic management functions and their interrelationships, and the organization and competitive niche of a business. Successful managers are able to maximize the utilization of human resources. They are leaders who understand the benefits of teamwork and consensus building inside and outside an organization's operations. They recognize the importance of technology and information management in the decision-making process and the value of ethics and social responsibility in building and maintaining business relationships. And like entrepreneurs, successful managers know that the ability to discern and respond quickly to changing economic conditions and new business opportunities is crucial to remaining viable in the marketplace. The study of management is an essential component in the design and delivery of the business education curriculum. The standards outlined in this section provide a solid framework for helping students build a strong knowledge base and develop effective management skills. Mastery of these standards will help students lay the groundwork for managerial competence in the global marketplace.
Below is an overview of the achievement standards for the management content area. Each achievement standard states the understanding and competency students should attain.
