Management is about create a system.

Planning: Identifying goals
Organizing: Allocating resource, assigning task
Leading: Influence
Control: Monitoring

"rather than doing all the work themselves, good managers create the systems and conditions that enable others to perform those tasks"

"As a new manager, remember that management means getting things done through other people. You can't do it all yourself. As a manager, your job is to create the environment and conditions that engage other people in goal accomplishment" (Management Text by Daft)
