EFFECT ON A MANAGER
By applying contingency theory to the study of management, you will be able to identify and to solve problems under different situations. You will recognize that the successful application of a technique in one situation does not guarantee success in another.

As a result, your overall ability to correct problems and to become more effective as a manager will increase.
