"Management is both a science and an art." In the light of the above statement, explain the nature of management.

Everything you need to know about the nature of management. It is hard to define the nature of management.

Different people look at management differently. While a mathematician defines management as a logical process, a psychologist considers it as an art of understanding human behaviour.

However, such approaches are narrow as they look at a particular aspect of management, thereby, missing to see the subject as a whole

It is true that " Management is both a science and an art ".
It has elements of both science and art :-
--) MANAGEMENT IS A SCIENCE :- Because it has systematised body of knowledge , which can be used to train the prospective and present managers .
--) MANAGEMENT IS AN ART :-
Because it deals with application of personal skills which can be improved through constant practice .

Science provide the knowledge and Art deals with the application of knowledge . One cannot become an efficient manager simply with the knowledge of principles . He must evolve creative results through practical knowledge and skills .
Thus , Management is an art and a science are not Mutually exclusive , but are complementary . It means, both are not in contrast to each other and should exist together in every management .

Hey!
It means that managememt is having characteristics of art as well as science.Thus,mgmt is both art and science.

As a sciene:
1.systematic body of knowledge
2.universal valadity
3.based on practice and experimentation


As an art:
1.Existence of theoretical knowledge
2.personalised application
3.based on practice and creativity

Yes!
According to my view it has both features limited..
It is based upon experiments n systemized body of knowledge so it's science.
N it's an art as it is based upon personal thinking, creative ideas etc

Management is considered as an inexact science or social science and a perfect art as it requires personal skill, creativity and practice. presently it does not satisfy all the features of profession but it is on the path of becoming a profession

Hjjjjjjjiiooo

management is an art by management is an inexact science
