•A contingency is an event that might happen

a possibility that it might
•Good managers need to consider
contingencies when making a plans

5. •(Fiedler, 1964). there is no one best
way of organizing / leading and that
an organizational / leadership style
that is effective in some situations
may not be successful in others.
• The optimal organization / leadership
style is contingent upon various
internal and external constraints.

6. WILLIAM RICHARD SCOTT
• "The best way to organize
depends on the nature of the
environment to which the
organization must relate".

7. SO THE CONTINGENCY MANAGEMENT
APPROACH
• The contingency approach to management says there is no
single good way of managing a business
• Instead, a manager must be ready to change, to fit in with
what’s best with the environment.
• In other words, the organisational structure and the
management style should depend on the type tasks that are
done in the business
• Wide range of external and internal factors must be considered
and the focus should be on the action that best fits the given
situation

11. EFFECT ON A MANAGER

12. • By applying contingency theory to the study of
management, you will be able to identify and to solve
problems under different situations.
• You will recognize that the successful application of a
technique in one situation does not guarantee success
in another.
• Rather, you will be able to examine each situation in
terms of how it is affected by the contextual,
organizational, and human dimensions.
• As a result, your overall ability to correct problems
and to become more effective as a manager will
increase.

13. •Contingency theory is designed to
provide the manager with the
capabilities to examine numerous
possible solutions to a problem
