Management is both a science as well as art. Explain.

Answer

The way science works on its own set of rules and principles, so does management. Hence many experts consider management as a science.
On the other hand, management focuses heavily on managing man i.e. people.
Getting work done from man requires proficiency, intelligence, cleverness and insight. So, management is the art of getting the work done.
Managing people is an art and so management is also considered as an art.
