An Engineer and a Manager A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She reduced altitude and spotted a man below. She descended a bit more and shouted, "Excuse me Sir, can you help me? I don't know where I am, I had promised someone, I should be there." The man below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude." "You must be an Engineer", said the lady balloonist.

"I am", replied the man. "How did you know that?" "Well", answered the lady in the balloon, "Everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information. And the fact is I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip even more."
The engineer below responded, "You must be in Top Management." "I am", replied the lady balloonist, "but, how did you know that?" "Well", said the Engineer, "You don't know where you are, or where you're going and seem to be in your place due to lot of hot air. You made a promise, which you've no idea how keep and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. And finally, you hold others responsible for the plight you are in.

1–25
Planning Identifying and selecting appropriate goals and courses of action for an organization. The planning function determines how effective and efficient the organization is and determines the strategy of the organization. Three Steps in the Planning Process: Deciding which goals to pursue. Deciding what courses of action to adopt. Deciding how to allocate resources. 1–26
Management Key Concepts Organization People working together and coordinating their actions to achieve specific goals. Goal/objective A desired future condition that the organization seeks to achieve. c.f. policy Strategy A cluster of decisions about what goals to pursue, what actions to take, and how to use resources to achieve goals. 1–27
Organizing Structuring working relationships in a way that allows organizational members to work together to achieve organizational goals. Organizational Structure A formal system of task and reporting relationships that coordinates and motivates organizational members. Creating organizational structure: • Grouping employees into departments according to the tasks performed. • Laying out lines of authority and responsibility for organizational members. 1–28
Leading Articulating a clear vision to follow, and energizing and enabling organizational members so they understand the part they play in attaining organizational goals. Leadership involves using power, influence, vision, persuasion, and communication skills. The outcome of leadership is highly motivated and committed organizational members.

Controlling Evaluating how well an organization is achieving its goals and taking action to maintain or improve performance. Monitoring individuals, departments, and the organization to determine if desired performance standards have been reached. Taking action to increase performance as required. The outcome of control is the ability to measure performance accurately and to regulate the organization for efficiency and effectiveness. 1–30
Types of Managers Levels of Management First-line managers • Responsible for day-to-day operations. Supervise people performing activities required to make the good or service. Middle managers • Supervise first-line managers. Are responsible to find the best way to use departmental resources to achieve goals.

IT and Managerial Roles and Skills Information Technology (IT) is increasingly used to help managers adopt a cross-departmental view of their organization. Managerial Role The set of specific tasks that a person is expected to perform because of the position he or she holds in the organization. Roles are defined into three role categories (as identified by Mintzberg): Interpersonal Informational Decisional 1–34
Decisional Roles Roles associated with methods managers use in planning strategy and utilizing resources:
Entrepreneur—deciding which new projects or programs to initiate and to invest resources in. Disturbance handler—managing an unexpected event or crisis. Resource allocator—assigning resources between functions and divisions, setting the budgets of lower managers. Negotiator—reaching agreements between other managers, unions, customers, or shareholders. 1–35
Informational Roles Roles associated with the tasks needed to obtain and transmit information in the process of managing the organization: Monitor—analyzing information from both the internal and external environment. Disseminator—transmitting information to influence the attitudes and behavior of employees. Spokesperson—using information to positively influence the way people in and out of the organization respond to it.
1–36
Interpersonal Roles Roles that managers assume to provide direction and supervision to both employees and the organization as a whole: Figurehead—symbolizing the organization’s mission and what it is seeking to achieve. Leader—training, counseling, and mentoring high employee performance. Liaison—linking and coordinating the activities of people and groups both inside and outside the organization/department. 1–37
