Explanation:

The correct answer is option 3- Formal organisation emphasizes on work  rather than interpersonal relationships.

Formal organizations typically prioritize work, structure, and established procedures over interpersonal relationships. They have defined roles, hierarchies, and rules designed to achieve specific goals or objectives efficiently.

Formal organisation refers to the organisation structure which is designed by the management to accomplish a particular task. It specifies clearly the boundaries of authority and responsibility and there is a systematic coordination among the various activities to achieve organisational goals. The structure in a formal organisation can be functional or divisional. The formal organisation can be better understood by a study of its features which are as follows:
(a) It specifies the relationships among various job positions and the nature of their inter relationship. This clarifies who has to report to whom.
(b) It is a means to achieve the objectives specified in the plans, as it lays down rules and procedures essential for their achievement.
(c) Efforts of various departments are coordinated, interlinked and integrated through the formal organisation.
(d) It is deliberately designed by the top management to facilitate the smooth functioning of the organisation.
(e) It places more emphasis on work to be performed than interpersonal relationships among the employees.
