उत्तर
i. Discipline: Discipline implies that an organisation should follow the rules and regulations and ensure conformity to the set rules and policies. It is important for both the management as well as the workers that they honour their commitments and clear and fair agreements.
ii. Unity of Command: According to the concept of unity of command, any employee should be answerable to only one boss. If an individual receives commands and directions from two or more superiors, then this principle is violated, and there will be chaos and conflicts.

After completing her Bachelors in Fashion Designing from a well-known college in France, Aditi has opened a boutique in a posh market in Kolkata. She has divided the work in smaller units and each employee is well trained to perform his/her task efficiently. The sales persons are allowed to close a deal with a buyer by giving a maximum of 5 percent discount, whereas the decision to give any further discount rests with Aditi as the final authority. In the earlier period of her business venture, employees were asked to put in extra hours of work. In return she had promised to give them a special incentive within a year. Therefore, when the business was doing well, she honours her commitment by giving bonus to her employees. She also instructed her employees that communication from top to bottom should follow the official lines of command. However, she tends to be more biased towards her female employees, when it comes to solve the conflicts among employees. |
