Solution
If an organisation does not provide the right place for physical and human resources in an organisation, the principle of order is violated. It refers to the orderly arrangement of men and material in a fixed place for everyone and everything.
The consequences of it are:
• It would lead to a delay in the decision-making process.
• It will be an obstacle for the activities.
• A lot of time will be wasted in finding the resources.
• Wastage of time.
• Delay in contacting the people.

‘Adharshila Vidyalaya’ believes in holistic development of students and encourages team building through a mix of curricular, co-curricular and sports activities.

They all decided to use recycled paper for decoration. As there was a spirit of unity and harmony and all members supported each other with mutual trust and belongingness, the programme was systematically planned and executed. Arvind, one of the prefects, realised that unknowingly the group had applied one of the principles of management while planning and executing the programme.
