In what order do managers typically perform the managerial functions? Correct Answer planning, organising, leading, controlling

Managerial functions typically perform managerial functions in order of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling. Planning being the preparative step for the future course of action, followed by organizing which helps how to utilize resources that are directed/lead by managers and controlled by the top management for measuring and assessing the deviations from the plans.

For theoretical purposes, it may be convenient to separate the function of management but practically these functions are overlapping in nature i.e. they are highly inseparable. Each function blends into the other & each affects the performance of others.
