When the term organization is mentioned, the role played by a manager comes in mind. An organization depends highly on the skills of a manager and how he is able to carry out all the elements of management . An organization includes a group of people who are willingly cooperating and effectively for a common mission. Organization seeks to know what is to be done and who is to do it. Organizations are structured to give better management, but the performance of the people or rather the employees who fill these positions determine the success of the organization regardless of the organizational design itself. The role of a manager in an organization entails the five key elements of organization; controlling, planning, organizing, leading and directing.
Good organization depends on a number of principles such as the principle of objective, analysis, simplicity, functionalism and departmentalization, centralization of authority and responsibility and limited span control. There are various things that are linked to organizational management but most importantly a manager should be efficient in time management, embrace teamwork and capable of motivating the employees and associates towards realizing the goal of the organization.

The next level encompasses learning the skills required to achieve great organizational structure. Here is where a manager has to be efficient in the skills of motivation. Motivation is a psychological force that determines the direction of an employee's behavior in the organization[4]. In addition, it determines the person's level of effort and their persistence. A manager should not work to control motivation but should create conditions that enable employees want to be motivated and hence motivate themselves. [...]
[...] It is the ability for a manager to control their time, and that or the organization. It entails knowing that all jobs have been done and then bringing on board a system and abiding by it in order to achieve the desired goals. When a manager exercises good time management, the results are always remarkable and also the SMART objective reached[5]. I will emphasize more on motivation since it is one of the most significant elements that determine the success of an organization. [...]
