What is the difference between management and administration?

Some companies may use this term interchangeably, but generally, the way I've always understood it is that Management is who oversees the production people and the Administration is who oversees the Management and the business overall.

Hope that helps a little...

Hi,
Here is a link to the "administration" of a small business:

I give this link because it shows the differences between "administration" and "management". As the answer before mine said, Administration is the "company" level, such as the CEO, or President, or Stock Holders, and Management is the lower levels, normall, such as management of payroll, human resources management, insurance, etc.
