PRINCE2 Foundation — Question 304

Which is a definition of management?

Answer options

• A. Directing the execution of project tasks as agreed for the project
• B. A way of working that characterises a group of people
• C. Being accountable to the business for the success of the project
• D. The party responsible for commissioning the project

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because it specifically emphasizes the role of directing and overseeing project tasks, which is a key aspect of management. The other options describe different roles or characteristics that do not define management itself: B focuses on group dynamics, C on accountability, and D on commissioning, none of which encapsulate the essence of management.
