ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT: A DETERMINANT TO ORGANIZATIONAL EFFICIENCY AND PROGRESS. (A Consideration to Henri Fayol’s Principles; Luther Gulick and Lyndall Urwick Edited Papers of Science)

Plans and actions in an organization initially starts with decision making, which is done within the administration and management chambers. This encompasses laying structures of hierarchy; effective strategies and plans of what is to be done; how to achieve it including the required resources and procedures; and considering who is responsible in achieving the planned agenda within an organization. Administration and management do not mean being “a manager sitted in an office”, rather it can mean one’sself being responsible for whatever duty he/she is assigned to do. According to Fayol’s administrative principles; Luther Gulick and Lyndall Urwick’s edited papers in the science of administration; and Focal Organizational Variables, considered in this paper all contends that administration and management sections in any organization are assigned to responsibilities they must effectively perform for the efficiency and progress of their organizations. Effective management of an organization gives a high output even with limited resources and, or without wasting the available resources. An administrator has to be well aware of his/her position as almost every member looks on to what is practiced in the “administration section/office”. Poor administrators and managers are of a great setback to any organization’s efficient production and progress.KEYWORDS: Administration and Management, Management Principles, Organizational Efficiency, and Progress.
