OPTION-1 It is a common thread that runs through all the activities within the organisation OPTION-2 It is implicit and inherent in all functions of the organisation OPTION-3 It is a force that binds all the functions of management The process by which a manager synchronises the activities of different departments is known as coordination. Coordination is the force that binds all the other functions of management. It is the common thread that runs through all activities such as purchase, production, sales, and finance to ensure continuity in the working of the organisation. Coordination is sometimes considered a separate function of management. It is however, the essence of management, for achieving harmony among individual efforts towards the accomplishment of group goals. Each managerial function is an exercise contributing individually to coordination. Coordination is implicit and inherent in all functions of an organization. So, the correct ans is all of these. |
