THE USE OF A FOUR MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS PERCEPTION TOOL TO DIAGNOSE ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES: A CASE STUDY

Journal Title: MANAGERIAL CHALLENGES OF THE CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

The diagnose of management practices is a key step in the process of organizational improvement. There are multiple alternatives for evaluating management practices. Maturity models are used for diagnosing the level of specific management areas: project management, process management, risk management etc. Empirical models have been designed by different consulting organizations or even researchers to evaluate different management areas of an organization or even the whole organization. The main limitation of such models is the restricted applicability within companies due to their restricted/narrowed focus, being limited to specific management areas or limited industry fields. The goal of this article was to test the usage of a simple diagnose tool based on the four management functions. It has been applied to a Romanian company. The results of the first usage show that it is a very adaptable tool for any organization, but it cannot measure specific details regarding management activities for any company.
