Abstract: This paper discusses the relation between diplomacy and management in the early 21st century. This is the period of postmodern diplomacy, in which diplomacy is continuing to grasp from other areas of human activity to upgrade its mission of managing relations between states (and other actors). We look at those aspects of management from which diplomacy can gain expertise, skill and approach. Hence, our interest lays in a possible contribution of management as a whole to diplomacy as we understand it nowadays. For this purpose, we point out the understanding of diplomacy as a diplomatic organisation and a social process. Since a direct consequence of globalisation on diplomacy is the constant rise of dynamics of its activities, scope of topics and number of actors, we stem from the preposition that diplomats cannot pursue their mission without implementing basic management skills.
