Introduction

As a newly appointed manager of a new Amazon warehouse plant that employs one

hundred employees which consist of a team of ten supervisors and ninety packers, I will oversee

the entire warehouse operations. The success of organizational functions within all corporations,

businesses, and companies depend on five critical elements or management practices. According

to Baack, Reilly, & Minnick (2014), “the management discipline consists of a set of five specific

within these disciplines. By applying those best practices within the five functions, it will foster

growth within and outside the organization, provide smoother operational processes, and enable

quality management strategies.

(SWOT) analysis indicates a framework for helping the researchers or planners to identify and

prioritize
