Management Concepts and Archival Administration

Author
  • James C. Worthy (Northwestern University)

Abstract

Your program chairperson has given me some rather broad instructions. Generally speaking, she wishes me to discuss "management principles and techniques applicable to archival administration, in particular personnel and organizational goals and objectives." More specifically, she has asked me to cover such topics as participatory management, communications, attitudes and motivation, measurement of managerial effectiveness, delegation of authority, the duties and responsibilities of leadership, and methods of planning and organizing. So that I might not feel too constricted, she has graciously allowed that I may want to add other topics, but she made it clear that my emphasis should be "management principles of personnel and goals in archival administration."
