The document discusses the four key things an organization must have: objectives, people, structure, and technology. It states that objectives indicate where the organization currently stands and where it wants to go. Setting objectives is the first task of a manager. People are also essential, both within the organization in roles like manager, employee, and outside as customers and suppliers. Structure defines the communication channels, authority, and responsibilities within the organization. Finally, technology is constantly changing and organizations must adopt new technologies to improve operations.
