Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The four functions of management are planning, organizing, directing, and controlling, which were first identified by Henri Fayol. Option A does include four important elements of management, but they are not the four functions identified by Fayol. Option B includes thoughts and feelings, which are not necessarily part of management, and inputs/outputs are too vague. Option D includes important aspects of management but does not encompass all four functions. Therefore, option C is the best choice as it includes the correct four functions and the correct person who first identified them.
