Question
State with reasons whether the following statement is TRUE or FALSE.
Planning function alone can help to achieve organizational objectives.
Options
True
False
Solution
Planning function can alone help to achieve organisational objectives – False
Explanation: The above statement is incorrect, as organising, directing, staffing and controlling are also required to achieve organisational objectives. Once the plan is designed, organising helps in identifying the tasks and resources that are required for the execution of the plan. Staffing provides specialised personnel for the accomplishment of the tasks and directing guides the people working in the office. Once all the functions are done, controlling is done to check whether the work is done as directed. Thus, we can say that all functions of management are required to achieve organisational objectives.
