Good management is a key to a successful business. Every organization requires a well-organized and well-defined management method and procedure to achieve the goals of the business. The management is headed by a leader. The latter is responsible for the entire process of the business operation.

These are just some of the questions that need to be answered in recognizing the resources of the business.

What are the Resources?

Management has 6 resources to acquire and utilize. The manpower is the first and one of the most important resources in the list. A leader should understand the people he needs to work for his team. He should consider the work that needs to be done, and so, he can consider the qualifications, and how many people he needs to fill in the organization. It is a vital decision that a leader has to deal with. Leadership in business involves the understanding of the interrelations of the resources with each other. In finding for manpower, the leader has to consider the other resources such as money, machines, methods, materials and marketing as well as other factors.

Once the leader understands the relationship that each resource has with the other resources, it is now easier for the leader to analyze and create a methodical procedure in the usage and functionalities of the each of the resources.

This stage involves a formulation of systematic to plan in approaching future endeavors in the business process.

Leadership in business goes beyond than what is given or seen. The decision is extensive as it covers all areas and aspects of the business. Through this process, the organization will be resilient in any unexpected events or circumstances that could either strengthen or weaken the business. However, as the leader of the organization is wise enough to think of it ahead of time, they will be able to overcome or surpass it.

  1. Great overview of strong leadership, Andreas. I like your focus on objectives. Although you don’t say it explicitly, I like your implications that leaders have to understand the maintain priorities in order to keep the focus on objectives.

  2. Good points. I always find that the best laid out plans, the things that we all need to do, are thrown to the waist side because we ran out of time, energy, and passion.

    I can design an organization with a culture that will repetitively fail; fail in either the good way or the bad way. I can also design an organization that will repetitively succeed; succeed in either the good way or the bad way.

    During the design, it all boils down to the 5C’s, something I seem to be using quite often.
    – Capacity
    – Caring
    – Credibility
    – Communicate
    – Capability

    We can structure things so people have the capacity to do something, may they be leaders or a producers.
