ABSTRACT

At this point in the book we now ready to discuss the evolution of the management process, namely, the POMC model. By now, the reader should have an appreciation that organizations are living organisms. Although the constructs of an organization are continually changing, the basic management process still exists. All organizations plan, organize, motivate workers, and control organizational systems in order to achieve the mission, goals, and objectives. This is universally true regardless if it is not formally stated. Second, the functions (POMC) of the management process are intrinsically linked in that changing one function invariably affects the other functions.
