THE CAUSES OF FAILURES AMONG SOME MANAGERS IN BUSINESS ORGANIZATION

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1     GENERAL BACKGROUND TO THE SUBJECT MATTER

The purpose of this project is nothing short of what organization is all about and possible ways of achieving our goals or objectives. In this aspect therefore it will be wise for us to know what is an organization. The “organization” is the act of putting into systematic relationship those elements and activities essential to the satisfaction of purpose of organization; this aids the achievement of a given purpose by facilitating and fostering co-operation. Co-ordination and interaction between people, between functions and between department. Sometimes we try to ask who is a manager? Most of us direct our attention to a company or to any organization.

A Manager from my view could be a man with his family.  In another aspect, a manager could be a person who can control those in his company since he has the knowledge of controlling both skilled and unskilled staff to achieve the set goals of the company.  However, in any organization therefore which concern in this topic that a manager is a person who attempts to achieve certain objectives by directing human activities in production for goods and services. He utilizes the land, factory, office machinery and offer facilities at his disposal in the most effective manner. Denyer d. c (2016) defined management as the act and science of achieving the objectives of a business in most efficient way. The act of carrying out his functions, which goes to make up his job, is described as management.

Management therefore, is the process of getting things done through people by certain objectives examples, formulation, plans, organizing, directing, staffing, controlling and innovating people. It has been observed that the British government that colonized us merely taught us Arts subject without getting into other aspect of education, what would have been of educational important were neglected such as: Business and Science Education. This have affected our country in general, most of the managers read Arts subjects and they only got to that managerial position by promotion. This then reveals that they lack knowledge or training for the post they hold.
