THE STRATEGIC ROLE OF MANAGEMENT SERVICES

Abstract

Management Services can be applied to any facet or function of a business. Reducing costs, improving productivity and modernizing methods are its traditional roles. Management Services is increasingly concerned with providing facilities whereby management can be more effective. By modifying their systems and harnessing personal motivation, companies adapt to their changing environment. The paper argues that top management must select a specific strategy from this wide range of options and that systems development and personnel development should be close allies in the process of continuous adaptation.
