Study Notes
Organization Types
- Organizations can be classified by their profit motive (profit or non-profit) and ownership structure (public, private, or semi-public/private).
- Examples include:
- Profit (for-profit): state-owned corporations, public companies with private capital participation, private companies, and financial institutions.
- Non-profit (not-for-profit): government ministries and agencies, public institutes, chambers of commerce, societies, institutes, cooperatives, political parties, trade unions, charity organizations, and religious communities.
- Public-private partnerships are gaining popularity.
Management in Non-Profit Organizations
- Typical challenges faced by non-profit organizations include:
- Lack of resources
- Poor resource management
- Founder's syndrome
- Reasons for these challenges often stem from:
- Difficulty in meeting the needs of both clients and funders simultaneously
- Reliance on external funding
- Limited managerial skills and time
- Political influence
- Prioritizing individual needs over organizational needs
- Poor strategy and unclear mission
- Key managerial activities:
- Fund raising and efficient financial resource management
- Branding the organization for both clients and funders
- Managing limited human resources
- The importance of non-profit management is increasing due to:
- Growth in the non-profit sector
- Increasing rationalization of funding
- Dependence on private and public funding
- Non-essential nature of non-profit goods, leading to higher income elasticity of demand
Non-Profit Organizations: Different Management Needs
- Different types of non-profit organizations require varying levels of classical managerial approaches.
- Organizations like big charities, universities, hospitals, and professional sports associations require more classical management due to their complex structure and greater focus on competition.
- Local social service agencies, local utility companies, local sports clubs, and national sports federations require differing degrees of classical management based on their specific needs.
The Role of Sport
- Sport benefits both individuals through personal well-being and society through health improvements and positive societal impact.
- Sport is a mixed good, requiring funding from both private and public sources.
- Inequality in society also necessitates state intervention to make sport accessible to all.
Sports Market and Financing in Slovenia
- The Slovenian sports market is characterized by:
- A competitive professional sports market with limited revenues due to a small market size
- A recreational sports market with a large active population and substantial household spending
- A youth sports market with limited public funding and relying on private sponsorships for commercially popular sports.
- Sports financing in Slovenia resembles other EU countries, with a notable redistributive effect.
Management vs. Administration in Sport
- The terms "management" and "administration" are often misused when discussing sports organizations.
- The key difference is that management emphasizes planning, implementation, and control, while administration encompasses broader business topics like HRM, purchasing, marketing, and finance.
- Sport management and sport administration are often similar in content, emphasizing management over administration.
Fundamentals of Sport Management
- Sport management encompasses both competitive and recreational sports, various organization types, different levels of activity, and interconnectedness with other sectors.
- The focus is on competitive and recreational sports, national and international levels, and prioritizing companies over societies, institutes, and federations.
- Sport is rapidly becoming a growing business.
- Sport management can be broadly divided into:
- Management in sport for entertainment (recreational sport)
- Management in sport for achievement (competitive sport)
