management (noun, man-age-ment, \ ˈmænɪdʒmənt \) exception (noun, ex-cep-tion, \ ɪkˈsepʃn \)

Definition: is a business practice ensuring that a company’s management is only notified about information indicating that the actual results of the organization’s business activities are substantially different from the budgeted or projected results. The objective of MBE is to focus the management’s attention on crucial tactical and strategic missions and tasks. According to this practice, if a manager isn’t capable or allowed to make a decision, it’s passed on to a higher level of the company’s management hierarchy.
