/ɪˈfɪʃəntli rʌn/
productive management
Etymology
'efficiently-run' originates from the word 'efficient,' which comes from Latin 'efficientem,' meaning 'accomplishing, performing.' The suffix '-ly' is used to form adverbs, and 'run' is from Old English 'rinnan,' meaning 'to flow, run.'
'Efficient' evolved from Latin 'efficientem' to Middle English 'efficient,' and 'run' from Old English 'rinnan' to modern English 'run.'
Initially, 'efficient' meant 'accomplishing,' and 'run' meant 'to flow.' Over time, 'efficiently-run' evolved to mean 'managed in a productive manner.'
