Harbison and Myers had offered a classic threefold concept for emphasizing a broader scope for the view point of management. They observed management as: (i ) An economic resource (ii) A system of authority and (iii) A class of elite.
(i) An economic resource: Economists treat management as one of the factors of production together with other factors such as land, labour and capital. As industrialization of a country increases, the need for management becomes greater as it is substituted for capital and lanour. So Harbison and Myers treated management as an economic resource.
(ii) A system of authority: Historically, management first developed an authoritarian philosphy with a small number of top individuals determining all actions of the rank and file.
(iii) A class of elite: Sociologists view management as a class and status system. The increase in the complexity of relationship in modern society demands that managers become an elite of brains and eductaion. Entrance into this class is based more and more on education and knowledge instead of on family and political connections.
