1.6 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
In a research project like this, it is always difficult to complete the work, without going through a number of factors which 8
constitute
impediments. Some respondents to the questions were not on seat in most
cases to give the required information. Some of the respondents were
reluctant to air their views.
The unwillingness by some managers to
release some vital information regarding the management and operations
of the companies is one of the factors that did not allow the researcher
gain access to vital and sufficient information. The time to move from
one library to the other, from one cybercafé to the other and the time
to type and distribute the questionnaires was another impediment.
Finance was another constraint. A lot of money was needed for transport,
typing etc.
The researcher was a nursing mother during this period. Despite all these, the researcher did her best.
1.7 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
To
extend the impact of management style on the efficiency of all the

requirement of the work. The researcher will limit the scope to some
selected government owned companies in Enugu State. It involves a survey
of selected managers with the companies.
