Leading: It means to inspire and motivate the people or workers to work hard to achieve organizational goals.

If a manager is a good planner and he knows and can get organizational goal, then he can also organize their organization as well and when he organized their organization in a good manner then he can lead or motivate people more effectively and can also control their organization in a best way. A good manager will focus on these four responsibilities.

There are many tasks that a manager does on a daily basis which include problem solving, facilitating meetings, and many other routine office tasks. "Management is the process of working with people and resources to accomplish organizational goals. Good managers do those things both effectively and efficiently." (Bateman & Snell, 2004) However many of these tasks should not be duplicated by a group of individuals. Different people can take on parts of the management function. Someone on a team can take care of the planning, while another person does the budgeting, and a third can monitor the progress and quality that each team member provides. "Management is like investment you want to invest all resources at your disposal as efficiently as possible in order to get the best return on them you can." (McCrimmon, 2005)
Managers have five major functions to perform, namely planning, staffing, organizing, controlling, and coordinating. These roles or functions of the management separate management from other roles such as marketing and accounting among others. The lessons that I have currently learned will help me in becoming a manager who will be capable of making various decisions that will have an impact on the whole firm. Additionally, the area where I have much interest in is the function of controlling in management.
An organisation is a deliberate arrangement of team consisting different personal identities to accomplish some specific goals and managers are the ones who hold the responsibility of mastering and placing them together to strive for that purpose (Robbins, Bergman, Stagg, and Coulter, 2008). Robbins et al. (2008) have stated that managers are people who coordinate and oversee the work activities of others so that the goal is accomplished effectively and efficiently. Managers usually possess qualities such as having strong communication skills, flexibility, imagination, enthusiasm, problem solving skills, and of course the desire to be a great leader (Phdinmanagement.org, 2014). The structure of management conducted by a manager is often influenced by the four functions introduced by Henri Fayol (planning, organising, leading, controlling); how Henry Mintzberg’s management roles play in the organisation and also the three essentials management skills proposed by Robert L. Katz (Robbins et al., 2008).

...sect. If the article identifies a seamless integration, between the three aspects, then, the article would have achieved its mandate. I feel that the author has achieved commendable results through the identification of the mindsets of effective management, however I feel that the author needs to emphasize on the need to combine the three factors. Instead, the author has emphasized on the mindset of effective management. In either case, effective management is all about mindset and not the capacity and environment. I believe that although different individuals are gifted differently, everyone can be an effective manager if given a chance.
Planning and organizing is another vital quality needed for managers. If manager can do effective planning he can really contribute in the long term progress and development of his organization. Proper planning helps in useful and efficient use of the existing resources of the organization. After planning if you are not able to organize the things, this can really worsen your planning.

function, managers need to analyse how activities and resources are to be grouped and carry out plans successfully (Bartol 2007). A manager have to understand their ability to manage the lower level employee which is the most valuable of the company as they are the key of output and implement in the planning.
