Question

Which of the following is **not** a limitation of planning function of management? A). Planning leads to rigidity. B). Planning reduces creativity. C). Planning guarantees success. D). Planning may not work in a dynamic environment.

Edvaya · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Planning guarantees success.. "**Planning guarantees success**" is the correct answer because it is **not** a limitation of planning — it is, in fact, an incorrect and false statement about planning altogether. The actual limitations of planning include: - **Planning leads to rigidity** ✅ (True limitation — it can make organisations inflexible). - **Planning reduces creativity** ✅ (True limitation — managers may blindly follow the plan). - **Planning may not work in a dynamic environment** ✅ (True limitation — rapidly changing environments make plans obsolete). However, "Planning guarantees success" is **factually false** — planning does not guarantee success because managers may incorrectly rely on previously successful plans, or unforeseen changes may make even the best plans fail. Since the statement itself is wrong, it is not (and cannot be) a limitation of planning.
