This publication introduces a series of pamphlets describing the principles, purposes, and applications of the Management Organization Systems Technique (MOST), an eclectic management system which draws from many sources of data and integrates them specifically for vital management needs. In the MOST approach, five subsystems--planning, data collection and processing, staffing and staff development, instruction, and evaluation--are precisely integrated to function as an administrative combine. The role of each subsystem in the MOST approach is explained briefly in this report. A short bibliography is appended. (JDS)
