what makes principles of management flexible ?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The principles of management are not rigid and extremely flexible. The manager has enough discretion to modify the principle of management to be applied according to the demands of the situation. For example, the decision of centralization or decentralization depends upon the situation and the circumstances arising. The individual principles are like individual tools which can be applied on the basis of the circumstances by the manager.

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. |
