Leaving any management process out will lead ultimately a company to fail. According to Four Functions Of Management: Planning, Organizing, Leading and Controlling (2013), “Now, before you think your boss is different, you should also know that the four functions of management are standard across industries, whether that be in a manufacturing plant, a home office, a grocery store, a retail store, a restaurant, a hotel, or even an amusement park" (para. 4). The management process should include each of the four functions for business success instead of failure. If 1g3 a business arrangement does not include all four functions in the management process_12b Comma follows an introductory dependent clause that starts with 1g3 words it may not be successful. To avoid failure, it is important to assemble a business requirements analysis. By designing the scope of the project and following each management process can help avoid pitfalls. For example, let us assume that a company has an objective to boost sales during the month of January. The team first needs to plan a complete action plan. After the plan is detailed the second management process would be to organize and implement. Schermerhorn (2013)
