Seven key managerial functions of sound fiscal budgeting: an internal management and external accountability perspective
Abstract
The major underlying assumptions supporting the validity of seven key managerial functions are examined as these functions are achieved and enhanced through the systematic, conscious deployment of four current budgeting strategies. The seven key functions are these: controlling, allocating, monitoring, prioritizing, evaluating, planning, and programming. Increasingly, enlightened public social policy is demanding better use of scarce fiscal and professional resources to meet the expanding objectives of the social environment in a complex and interdependent society. What modern human services managers need to know in substance about essential budget strategies and their increased functional utility for enhancing the objectives of human services management provides the integrating theme for the presentation.
