and Organisation Behavior
1. Define the terms ‘strategy’. Explain the following:
a) Corporate strategy
b) Business strategy
c) Functional strategy
Strategy
Once you
have your vision,
you have to
see how that
vision can be executed. Here is where strategy comes in.
Strategy means the grand plan and the term is borrowed from the military which
distinguished between the grand
plan and actual
action by calling
the former strategy
and the latter tactics.
Strategy in
organisations can be divided into three: 1) Corporate strategy, 2) Business
strategy, 3) Functional strategy
(a) Corporate strategy
If you
are a company like TATA or BIRLA, you
will have several businesses under
you and a
corporate headquarters which
controls these. Each
of these businesses may be run by
an independent company much like Tata Motors runs the vehicle business and Tata
Consultancy Service runs the IT business (they both are different companies).
The corporate headquarters will have grand plans on how

2. Define the
term ‘management’. Explain
the Behavioural science
theory and Systems theory.
Definition of management
We can realise that
management has been happening right through the history of man and it is all
about making things smooth or shall we say efficient. It is also about
achieving our goals which in modern management literature we call
‘effectiveness’.
According to Harold Koontz, “Management is an art of
getting things done through and with people in formally organised groups. It is
an art of creating an environment in
which people can
perform as individuals
and can cooperate towards the
attainment of group goals”. According to
F.W. Taylor,
“Management is an art
of knowing what to do, when to do, and
see that it is done in the best and cheapest way”.

3. Give the definition and
importance of planning in an organisation and explain the Portfolio Matrix or
BCG Matrix.
Definition and Importance of
Planning
Planning can
be defined as a basic
management function which
enables one to select the purpose of the business, and how the resources
should be mustered to achieve that purpose to include using the available
resources optimally to do
that. Planning implies
goal setting for
the organisation keeping in mind
the constraints, opportunities, and
threats as much as what the person or
business which is
planning wants to
do. Thus, a
plan is a blueprint
for goal achievement,
a blue print
that specifies the
necessary resource
allocations, schedules, tasks,
and other actions
to achieve the purpose.
A goal
is a desired
future state that
the organisation attempts
to reach. Goals are
important because an
organisation exists for
a purpose, and goals define and state that purpose.
Goals specify

Types of Oral Communication
Oral communication
has some advantages
compared to written
communication. The advantages
include personal quality,
high interactivity, possibility
of making immediate
contact and obtaining instantaneous feedback and control
over the receiver’s attention.
Oral communication
is classified into
two types: -

3. How does internal business communication affect the organization?
Discuss the role of each stakeholder in this.
Internal business communication
Business communication
is diverse and involves both ‘internal stakeholders’ within the
organisation, as well
as ‘external stakeholders’
outside the organisation. A manager has to constantly
communicate with and maintain good relations with each of these stakeholders or
public. This will enable the organisation to achieve its overall goals and
project a favourable image.
The wheel
of business communication reinforces –
communication is like
breathing, it never
stops and is a
constant process. Managers
have to stay
in continuous touch

Statistics. Mention the characteristics of Statistics.
Definition of Statistics
“Statistics is a
science which deals with the method of collecting, classifying, presenting, comparing and interpreting the

According to Horace
Secrist, “Statistics may be defined, as the aggregate of facts
affected to a
marked extent by
multiplicity of causes,
numerically expressed, enumerated
or estimated according to a reasonable standard of accuracy,
collected in a
systematic manner for
a predetermined purpose
and placed in relation
to each other”1 . This definition is both comprehensive and exhaustive.

Ans 2 (a) : Definition of Probability
Probability is
a numerical measure
which indicates the chance of occurrence
of an event ‘A’. It is denoted by P(A). It is the ratio between the favourable
outcomes of an
event ‘A’ (m)
to the total
outcomes of the experiment
(n). In other words:
Where, ‘m’ is the
number of favourable outcomes of an
event ‘A’ and ‘n’ is the total number of
outcomes of the experiment.

2. Explain Balance Scorecard. Give an
illustration of Balance Score Card.
Balanced
scorecard
The
balanced scorecard is
a contemporary performance
measurement system for
an organisation. Traditionally, a
company’s performance was measured only
by using certain
financial ratios like
Return on Investment (ROI), Net Profit Ratio, Earning
Per Share (EPS), working capital
turnover, etc.
However, a
company’s performance or
success cannot be
completely measured from
a single view
point (perspective). No
doubt, financial performance
is an important
aspect, but certain

Elasticity of Supply?
Definition Elasticity of Supply
It is a parallel
concept to elasticity of demand. It
refers to the sensitiveness or responsiveness of supply to
a given change
in price. In
short, it measures
the degree of adjustability of supply to a given change
in price of a product. The formula to calculate elasticity of supply is as follows:
It
implies that at the present level with every change in price by one unit, there will be a change in

in buying and
selling a homogeneous product without
any artificial restriction
and, possessing perfect knowledge of
the market at
a time. According
to Bilas, “the
perfect competition is characterised by the presence of many firms;
they all sell the same product
which is identical. The seller is the price-taker”. According to Prof.
F. Knight, perfect competition entails
“Rational conduct on the part of buyers and sellers, full knowledge, absence of
friction, perfect mobility and perfect divisibility

3. A cost-schedule is a statement of variations in costs resulting from
variations in the levels of Output and it shows the response of costs to
changes in output. If we represent the relationship between changes in the
level of output and costs of production, we get different Types of cost curves
in the short run. Define the kinds of cost concepts like TFC, TVC, TC, AFC,
AVC, AC and MC and its corresponding curves with suitable diagrams for each.

In order
to study the
relationship between the
level of output
and corresponding cost of production, we have to prepare the cost
schedule of the firm. A cost-schedule is

consists of projecting
future manpower requirements
and developing manpower plans for the implementation of the
projections.'

3. What is succession planning?
What are the benefits of having a formal Succession Planning System in an
organization?
Succession Planning
Traditionally
succession planning was restricted to senior-level management positions and
this was either an informal or formal process.
Over the
years succession planning
has established itself
as a key HR
activity in most
organisations with formal
processes that ensure
it is reviewed regularly
and scientifically. In
smaller organisations it is yet an
informal process where the individual manager identifies and grooms his or her
own successor.
Succession
planning involves an examination of strategic (long-range) plans and HR
forecasts for all
identified key positions
in an organisation.
It includes positions that are critical for the business and for its
continuity, and not just the
senior level positions.
It includes a
review of the
data on all potential
candidates who might
be able to
move to these
positions either right-away or in
