उत्तर
Scalar chain refers to the line of authority for the chain of superior ranking from the highest to the lowest. Fayol had insisted upon using this chain in every organisation. All information must pass through every level without skipping any one of them.
In the above figure, A is the head of the organisation with two separate departments. One of the departments consists of B, C, and D, and the other department consists of E, F and G. B and E are at the same level, followed by C and F, and D and G. If D wanted to contact G, the line of communication would be D-C-B-A-E-F-G. If this chain of communication is broken, it will lead to a communication gap in the organisation.
At times it may cause a lot of delay in passing out information, which will eventually lead to delay in decision-making. To resolve this issue, Fayol has suggested a gangplank, which is a shortcut chain in which D can directly contact G.

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.
