by identifying work-force requirements, inventorying
the people available, and recruiting, selecting,
placing, promoting, appraising, planning the careers
of, compensating, and training or otherwise
developing both candidates and current jobholders so
that they can accomplish their tasks effectively and
efficiently.
9. Managers often say that people are their most
important asset. Yet the “human assets” are
virtually never shown on the balance sheet as a
distinct category, although a great deal of
money is invested in the recruitment, selection,
and training of people.
10. SITUATIONAL FACTORS AFFECTING STAFFING
I. External Factors

in the society • Loss and regulations

14. Leadership is defined as influence, that is, the art or
process of influencing people so that they will strive
willingly and enthusiastically toward the achievement
of group goals. Ideally, people should be encouraged
to develop not only willingness to work but also
willingness to work with zeal and confidence. Zeal is
ardor, earnestness, and intensity in the execution of
work; confidence reflects experience and technical
ability. Leaders act to help a group attain objectives
through the maximum application of its capabilities.
They do not stand behind a group to push and prod;
they place themselves before the group as they
facilitate progress and inspire the group to accomplish
organizational goals.
15. The fundamental principle of leadership
Since people tend to follow those who, in their
view, offer them a means of satisfying their
own personal goals, the more managers
understand what motivates their subordinates
and how these motivations operate, and the
more they reflect this understanding in carrying
out their managerial actions, the more effective
they are likely to be as leaders.
16. MANAGERS VERSUS LEADERS
MANAGERS
• Managers are appointed.
Their ability to influence is
based on the formal
authority inherent in their
positions.
• Managers should ideally
be leaders.
LEADERS
• Leaders may either be
appointed or emerge from
within a group.
• Not all Leaders are
managers.
17. SIX TRAITS THAT DIFFERENTIATE LEADERS
FROM NON-LEADERS
1. Drive
2. Desire to lead
3. Honesty and integrity
4. Self-confidence
5. Intelligence
6. Job-relevant knowledge
18. Three leadership styles
Autocratic style
Describes a leader who typically tends to centralize authority,
dictate work methods, make unilateral decisions, and limit
subordinate participation.
Democratic style
Describes a leader who tends to involve subordinates in decision
making, delegate authority, encourage participation in deciding
work methods and goals, and use feedback as an opportunity for
coaching.
Laissez-faire style
Describes a leader who generally gives the group complete
freedom to make decisions and complete the work in whatever
way it sees fit.
20. The managerial function of controlling is
the measurement and correction of
performance in order to make sure that
enterprise objectives and the plans devised
to attain them are being accomplished.
Planning and controlling are closely
related.
21. Control techniques and systems are essentially
the same for cash, office procedures, morale,
product quality, and anything else. The basic
control process, wherever it is found and
whatever is being controlled, involves three
steps: (1) establishing standards (2) measuring
performance against these standards, and (3)
correcting variations from standards and plans.
Standards are, by definition, simply criteria of
performance.
22. The principle of critical-point control, one of
the more important control principles, states:
Effective control requires attention to those
factors critical to evaluating performance
against plans
23. Types of Critical-Point Standards
Standards tend to be of the following types:
(1) Physical standards
(2) Cost standards
(3) Capital standards
(4) Revenue standards
(5) Program standards
(6) Intangible standards
(7) Goals as standards, and
(8) Strategic plans as control points for strategic control.
24. Strategic Control comprises systematic
monitoring at strategic control points as
well as modifying the organization’s
strategy on the basis of this evaluation.
25. REQUIREMENTS FOR EFFECTIVE CONTROLS
• Tailoring Controls to Plans and Positions
• Tailoring Controls to Individual Managers
• Making Sure that Controls Point Up Exceptions at
Critical Points
• Seeking Objectivity of Controls
• Ensuring Flexibility of Controls
• Fitting the Control System to the Organizational Culture
• Achieving Economy of Controls
• Establishing Controls that Lead to Corrective Action
26. Budgeting is the formulation of plans for a given
future period in numerical terms. As such, budgets are
statements of anticipated results, either in financial
terms - as in revenue and expense and capital budgets -
or in non-financial terms - as in budgets of direct-
labour-hours, materials, physical sales volume, or units
of production.
27. THE PURPOSE OF BUDGETING
By stating plans in terms of numbers and breaking them
into parts that parallel the parts of an organization,
budgets correlate planning and allow authority to be
delegated without loss of control. In other words,
reducing plans to numbers forces a kind of orderliness
that permits the manager to see clearly what capital will
be spent by whom and where, and what expense,
revenue, or units of physical input or output the plans
will involve.
28. TYPES OF BUDGETS
• Revenue and expense budgets
• Time, space, material, and product budgets.
• Capital expenditure budgets
• Cash budgets
29. Effective Budgetary Control
If budgetary controls are to work well, managers
must remember that budgets are designed only as
tools and not as replacements for managing, that
they have limitations, and that they must be
tailored to each job. Moreover, they are the
tools of all managers and not only of the budget
director or the controller.
