Write short note on the following.
Principle of scalar chain
Advertisements
उत्तर
Scalar chain refers to a pre-defined, formal path of authority and communication in the line of order (from the highest rank to the
lowest rank). For example, A is the CEO of an organisation and he has two paths of authorities under him. One is A-B-C and the other is A-D-E. Everybody in the organisation follows this chain of authority for communication. For example, if C wants to contact E, then he will have to follow the formal path C→B→A→D→E. That is, C will first have to contact higher authorities (C→B→A); they, in turn, will transverse the communication to E (A→D→E).

to work for more than one superior resulting in declining efficiency. The divisions that were previously working on one product were also made to work on two or more products. This resulted in a lot of overlapping and wastage. The workers were becoming indisciplined. The spirit of teamwork, which
had characterized the company, previously was beginning to wane. Workers were feeling cheated and initiative was declining.
