MANAGEMENT PRACTICE Effective Management Practices in the Workplace A good, effective management practice to use in any workplace is the five functions: planning, leading, organizing, staffing, and controlling (Reilly, 2011).

...Management Functions Introduction Effective leadership and management involve motivating employees, creative problem solving, and to make sure that organizational goals and objectives are being accomplished. The five functions of management are planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling. These are the five functions that separate other business functions like accounting, marketing, and manufacturing from the management processes (Stewart R Clegg, 2011). Thesis Statement This paper takes a detailed look at the application of these five management functions at Food Basics. Food Basics is a US based local chain of grocery stores where I worked as a customer service representative. During my job there, the top level management took the decision to turn the company into a customer-oriented organization. This paper also takes a critical look at the practice of the five management functions for the implementation of this organizational strategy. Planning Planning is the foremost management function which sets the groundwork for other management functions. At Food Basics, planning is a continuous ongoing process in which the courses of action are determined. It is the responsibility of the top level management to devise a blueprint for all organizational activities including activities in all retail stores to reach the overall objectives. First the top level management determines what resources are needed, the resources in this case being supplies and the management...

...Running head: The Importance of Management 1 The Importance of Management Chelsea Winslow MGT330: Management of Organizations Paul Verlasky THE IMPORTANCE OF MANAGEMENT 2 Introduction Management is crucial in developing the operations of organizations. The structure of an organization is the foundation that an organization positions itself on and determines the success of the organization. Without management, organizations would lack defined purpose and goals. Management in organizations has led to studies of various theories of management. There are numerous theories and ideas that have shaped management principles within organizations. Despite the ever changing environment of organizations, there are five core functions that have remained intact. These functions are: leading, planning, staffing, organizing and controlling. Every organization and its needs are unique and specific to that organization. Every organization will have a different approach and way of operating, but these five core functions are the constant in the implementation of each organization’s goals. These core functions can be observed in one of the retail industry leaders, Macy’s. As a former employee of this organization, I observed these five functions of management in the achievement of their goals. Also, as a former employee of this organization, I believe I can elucidate more on the process of application of these functions in various situations. (Reilly...

...file-processing system and a DBMS. * A database management system coordinates both the physical and the logical access to the data, whereas a file-processing system coordinates only the physical access. * A database management system reduces the amount of data duplication by ensuring that a physical piece of data is available to all programs authorized to have access to it, whereas data written by one program in a file-processing system may not be readable by another program. * A database management system is designed to allow flexible access to data, whereas a file-processing system is designed to allow predetermined access to data. * A database management system is designed to coordinate multiple users accessing the same data at the same time. A file-processing system is usually designed to allow one or more programs to access different data files at the same time. 2. Explain the concept of physical data independence, and its importance in database systems. The ability to modify a schema definition in one level without affecting a schema definition in the next higher level is called Data Independence. The ability to modify the physical schema without causing application programs to be rewritten or without changing the logical schema is called physical data independence.

IT Audit is the process of collecting and evaluating evidence to determine whether a computer System has been designed to maintain data integrity, safeguard assets, allows organizational goals. To be achieved effectively, and uses resources efficiently. Data integrity relates to the accuracy and completeness of information as well as to its validity in accordance with the norms. An effective information system leads the organization to achieve its objectives and an efficient information system uses minimum resources in achieving the required objectives. IT Auditor must know the characteristics of users of the information system and the decision making environment in the audit organisation while evaluating the effectiveness of any system. The potential for material systems error has thereby been greatly increased causing great costs to the organisation, e.g., the highly repetitive nature of many computer applications means that small errors may lead to large losses Controls in a computer information system reflect the policies, procedures, practices and organizational structures designed to provide reasonable assurance that objectives will be achieved. The controls in a computer system ensure effectiveness and efficiency of operations, reliability of financial reporting and compliance with the rules and regulations.
