The principle of unity of command resembles to which of the following organisation? |
Military Organsiation Non Profit Organisation Profit organisation None of the above |
Military Organsiation |
The correct answer is option 1- Military Organsiation. Unity of Command: According to Fayol there should be one and only one boss for every individual employee. If an employee gets orders from two superiors at the same time the principle of unity of command is violated. The principle of unity of command states that each participant in a formal organisation should receive orders from and be responsible to only one superior. Fayol gave a lot of importance to this principle. He felt that if this principle is violated “authority is undermined, discipline is in jeopardy, order disturbed and stability threatened”. The principle resembles military organisation. |
