When you hear "Business Administration" what is the first thing that comes to mind?

The Board of Directors at a hospital.

@SW-User I would say spot on... Board of Directors / Owners of any organisation type.
SW-User
@iMystery exactly. Also Human Resources departments.

@SW-User The reason I asked is because most people (where I'm from) think Business Administration is office admin work 🤣... kinda like a secretary lol.

They dont know Administration is above Management.

Guys who shake hands wasaaaaay too much.

@SW-User 🤣

@SW-User Why do you think so?

People in suits making choices for what they think "the average person" wants from the company when they themselves have no actual idea what an average person is, does or wants.

@Zaphod42 That is quite a common sentiment and I dont blame people for feeling that way.

Filing sht! Office go-for.

@SW-User LOL now THAT is what many people THINK it is... mistaking office admin work for Business Administration... not the same thing.

@InOtterWords 100% correct. Encompassing ALL aspects of running a business. Also the "Decision Making" function... instruction Management what needs to be done and when... and Management is concerned with How it gets done and Who does it, in order to meet the goals of Administration.
