What is Business Management
The English verb "manage" comes from the Italian maneggiare, which means to handle, as in handling a tool.
This in turn comes from two Latin words: Manus, hand, and Agere, to act.
Management is to take action that handles a situation, that makes something happen.

- A management plan and policy will give the steps and guidance to drive action and success.
- Continuous management supervision keeps that movement in motion.
