What I have learnt?...
Management is about directing, improving, and innovating to reach the organization's goal of profit-maximizing.
Administration is about analyzing reports, correcting mistakes, and solving problems to reach the same goal.
Both are necessary for a company or organization to succeed, and they differ in terms of their objectives, success criteria, resource use, decision making, structure, roles, and attitudes. A succinct definition of the difference between administration and management is that "it must not only keep things going;
it must also make things go"
Objectives
This refers to the goals that an organization sets for itself, and how those goals are prioritized and pursued. Management tends to focus on long-term objectives, while administration is more concerned with short-term objectives.
Success criteria
This refers to the metrics that an organization uses to measure its progress and determine whether it is achieving its objectives. Management tends to focus on financial metrics, while administration is more concerned with operational metrics.
Resource use
This refers to how an organization allocates its resources, including people, money, and equipment. Management tends to focus on strategic resource allocation, while administration is more concerned with tactical resource allocation.
Decision making
This refers to how an organization makes decisions, including who is involved in the decision-making process and how decisions are communicated. Management tends to make strategic decisions, while administration is more concerned with operational decisions.
Structure
This refers to the formal and informal relationships between people and departments within an organization. Management tends to focus on the overall structure of the organization, while administration is more concerned with the structure of individual departments.
Roles
This refers to the responsibilities and expectations that are associated with different positions within an organization. Management tends to have more strategic roles, while administration is more concerned with operational roles.
Attitudes
This refers to the values and beliefs that are held by people within an organization, and how those attitudes affect the way that work is done. Management tends to have a more optimistic and visionary attitude, while administration is more concerned with practical problem-solving.
Resource allocation
This refers to how an organization allocates its resources, including people, money, and equipment. Management tends to focus on strategic resource allocation, while administration is more concerned with tactical resource allocation.
