Craftsmanship Vs Organization and Objectives of Mangement - POM Lesson 3.

objective:
today's objective is to understand the difference between craftsmanship and organization and identifying the objectives of organization.


Craftsmanship is the art of doing something using the personal skills. In craftsmanship, the whole process of developing a product (good or service) is managed and executed by one single person. e.g. work of a tailor, cobbler or a carpenter falls under the category of craftsmanship.


organization, on the other hand is a social entity in which people work together to achieve a common goal. 

here i have listed come points of comparison between the two to refine our understanding of them.



*De-skiling: when an organization breaks a particular process of making a product into small-small work steps and minimizes the requirement of skills in it. The main objective of De-skiling is that it makes the quality of product more of process dependent than skill dependent.


Now, lets move on to Objectives of Management.


Management always thrives to reach the three set of objectives which are called 3 Es of management. which are:
1. Effectiveness
2. efficiency
3. Excellence

effectiveness can be defined as the capability of producing intended result or having a sticking effect. whereas, efficiency is the ratio of Output to Input. If effectiveness is about doing the right thing then efficiency is about doing the things in a right way.

Dynamics of an organization is Excellence = effectiveness * efficiency




In future, i will be writing more on Organizational management. keep visiting. till then remember:
"Don't settle for success when excellence is withing your grasp."
