Conceptual Analysis in the Field of Management

In the literature on the subject, the terms steering, management and control are often used interchangeably. However, in the course of the terminological analysis, the author indicated the dependencies between these concepts and defined the area of their application. The conducted research allowed for the identification of the concept of command and the area of its influence. The system of command, as a special (specific) form of management, allowed for the presentation of the entirety of the commander's purposeful activity as part of the command system. As a result of the terminological analysis, the author drew attention to the diversity of the analysed concepts, which will allow for their purposeful and proper use in research in the field of social sciences in the disciplines of safety science as well as management and quality science.
