Options:

Clarity in working relationships

Adaptation to change

Correct Answer:

Clarity in working relationships

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) - Clarity in working relationships. 

Clarity in working relationships: The establishment of working relationships clarifies lines of communication and specifies who is to report to whom. This removes ambiguity in transfer of information and instructions. It helps in creating a hierarchical order thereby enabling the fixation of responsibility and specification of the extent of authority to be exercised by an individual.

* Adaptation to change: The process of organising allows a business enterprise to accommodate changes in the business environment. It allows the organisation structure to be suitably modified and the revision of inter-relationships amongst managerial levels to pave the way for a smooth transition. It also provides much needed stability to the enterprise as it can then continue to survive and grow despite changes.

* Effective administration: Organising provides a clear description of jobs and related duties. This helps to avoid confusion and duplication. Clarity in working relationships enables proper execution of work. Management of an enterprise thereby becomes easy and this brings effectiveness in administration.

* Development of personnel: Organising stimulates creativity amongst the managers. Effective delegation allows managers to reduce their workload by assigning routine jobs to their subordinates. The reduction in workload by delegation is not just necessary because of the limited capacity of an individual but also allows the manager to develop new methods and ways of performing tasks.
