What is meant by the “management process”?

Generally Management is seen as a sequence of functions. However, management is also seen from "process" perspective. In the real world situations management functions do not necessarily follow a strict sequence - Planning through controlling. These functions could play on each other and many of them- planning, organizing in a dynamic manner. Changes in planning may demand alternatives in organizing and feedback from control function may lead to changes in planning stage. Hence management can be regarded as a process in which different functions interplay among themselves creating a circular cause and effect phenomenon.
