Management is a combination of both, science and behavior. When it comes to processes and procedures, it is a science, but when it comes to human beings, it becomes an art.

Hence to my experience, you can switch on and off hundreds of machines with single command, but you can not lead a team of five people without understanding their personalities. Art of communication is why the single most important pillar of the management.

Management is open domain inclusive of everything which involve science, arts, commerce, economics and human behaviour . 

To my understanding it is Business project; which is ongoing process by business.

It is Science & Behavior along with ART.....

It is more towards Business process, so "Business"...
