  • Describe the background to theories of management and leadership
  • Define the terms management and leadership
  • Distinguish between management and leadership
  • Demonstrate knowledge of the relationship between management and leadership
  • Identify areas for your own development

Classical theories of management are usually acknowledged to begin with the writings of Frederick Taylor, an American industrialist.
