Business Management & Enterprises
To paraphrase Peter Drucker, management can be described as the dynamic
life-giving and life-sustaining element of every business enterprise. It is the
thinking organ that provides vision to the business. It is also the integrating force
for the accomplishment of business objectives. Business Management involves
strategic thinking, decision-making, and ethical leadership that keeps an
organisation on track and moving toward its goals at the right time and in the
right manner.

In recent history, enterprises that have failed due to poor or myopic or unethical
management practices include Kodak, Compaq, Toys “R” Us, Enron, WorldCom, Satyam,
etc. Thus, the importance of sound business management practices to a successful and
sustainable enterprise cannot be emphasised enough. The goal of management is to
get people together to achieve the same desired objectives and goals by using the
resources that are available effectively and efficiently.
