Management Aspect 44

INTRODUCTION

Management is the science and art of planning,

organizing, activating or directing, and controlling the

efficient and effective utilization of scarce resources to

achieve defined or set organizational goals and objectives

(Rodriguez, 1997).

It is a science in the sense that it makes use of

certain bodies of knowledge; and it is an art with the fact

that it follows certain series of activities that must be

carefully followed to be able to achieve objectives.

It is said that it involves the management of

resources. There are a lot of resources in an organization

that must be managed efficiently and effectively. Some of

these resources are financial assets, plant assets,

intangible assets, and human resources.

One of the most important areas of management is

personnel or human resource management, which is the major

focus of this aspect. Even more, Perfecto Sison directly

define management as the art of getting things done through

people. Regarding labor as the most important resource of

any organization, there is a must to carefully consider and

44
 Management Aspect 45

study the participation of the human resource in the

organization.

Taking into consideration the proposed business, which

is more of a service provider, personnel or human resource

is the make or break factor. Human is not just involved in

the management but in almost all levels of operation in

the whole process of providing service to the clientele with

utmost satisfaction.

In actuality, either service or good oriented, the

business do need the proper management of its most important

resource. It is said that an organization is only as good as

its people. The organization must have policies that shall

treat its personnel as a human personality with their

welfare and human dignity. Good relationship must be

established between executives and personnel or employees.

In view of this, the form of ownership, organizational

chart, job descriptions and qualifications, and management

proposals are embodied in a business management study.

Also, personnel compensation, general policies, and business

forms and records are taken into consideration.

45
 Management Aspect 46

FORM OF OWNERSHIP

The proponents have chosen general partnership as the

form of organization in this proposed project because in

this kind of ownership, certain advantages will be useful

for the business. One of which is the pooling of resources,

whereby two or more persons form as a group, thereby

contributing their own ideas, managerial talents, and assets

to put up a successful business.

These advantages are very beneficial to the proposed

project because it needs the combined potentials of the

partners. Another is the ability to obtain capital in which

the combined financial contributions of all the partners

stand behind the negotiation for business capital.

Thus, the partners have an obligation to give what they

have promised to contribute to the business in order that it

will have something to use in its operations. Aside from

that, the intimate relationships of the partners also

provide a strong support to capital acquisition.

Finally, the government has lesser restrictions in this

kind of business ownership or organization as compared to a

corporation.

K. Policy on Student Absences

1. If the student has been absent for more than 20% of the

total school days, he/she will earn no credit and

repeat the same level in the next school year.

2. However, if the student was assessed to have high

grades but has incurred 20% of the total school days,

he may be allowed to enter to the class provided he is

willing to cope with his missed classes and excert more

effort to pass his class.

3. On the contrary, if the student was assessed to have

low grades and has incurred 20% of the total school

days, he must repeat the same level in the next school

MANAGEMENT PROPOSAL

The proponents have decided to adopt a hybrid of Theory

Y and Theory Z as the type of management of personnel

because it conforms well to the companys objective of

maintaining a good relationship between the owners and the

80
 Management Aspect 81

employees and as well as promoting camaraderie among

employees and management.

Theory Y speaks about the nature of the human being in

connection to its working relationship with other people. It

says that a human being in work does not need to be coerced

in order to finish the job assigned to him. It is of his

nature that he will do his job assigned to him. This

emphasizes that an average person learns to accept and seek

responsibilities. So a person, through his own initiative,

should know his responsibilities and willingly accept it

without any objection.

Lastly, the theory tells us that the capacity to

exercise a relatively high degree of imagination, ingenuity,

finding the solution to any problem that may arise. There

are no limitations or restrictions in doing such. In the

end, the company will benefit from such ideas being shared

by each employee.

Theory Z speaks of promoting closer, cooperative and

trusting relationships between all working groups in the

company. Its central thought is the creation of an

industrial team and a stable, cohesive work environment

where employees feel affiliated and independent while

sticking to the proper qualities and control of the needs of

81
 Management Aspect 82

the organization (Cuyugan,J., A Business Planning). It would

not just enhance the working force but also to provide an

example to the pupils in the school. A sound relationship

and trust among the working force will provide a foundation

to fulfill what is presented in Theory Y and would support

companys mission and vision.
