Options:

Scalar chain

Espirit de Corps

Order

Correct Answer:

Espirit de Corps

Explanation:

The correct answer is option (3) : Espirit de Corps

The principle of Fayol followed by Atul's team in this case is Espirit de Corps.

In the context of Atul's team, they are likely emphasizing the principle of team spirit, cooperation, and a positive group dynamic. This principle aligns with Fayol's ideas about the importance of unity and harmony within an organization.

Esprit De Corps: Management should promote a team spirit of unity and harmony among employees, according to Fayol. Management should promote teamwork especially in large organisations because otherwise objectives would be difficult to realise. It will also result in a loss of coordination. A manager should replace 'l' with 'We' in ail his conversations with workers to foster team spirit. This will give rise to a spirit of mutual trust and belongingness among team members.
