Lastly, one can utilized paradigms for management and organizational success, and base their strategy and organizational motivations on well investigated and logical theories and organizational developments. By doing so one is using management as a science, to achieve the best possible outcome for employees, the manager as an individual and the organization as a whole.
One can not analyze management without in fact considering it an art, science and profession. All three aspects are inextricably linked and intertwined. A successful manager in any corporate environment recognizes that management is a combination of each of these elements. A manager combines personal interests with employee needs to enhance the overall productivity and success of the organization. Thus management truly is a science, an art and a profession.
