Question 37
The "unity of command" principle in management states that an employee should receive instructions from only one manager. If an employee gets instructions from more than one manager, this principle is violated. "Span of control" refers to the number of subordinates a manager oversees, "policies and procedures" are guidelines, and "standards" are benchmarks, none of which relate to multiple managers giving instructions.
Line organization has a clear chain of command with many layers of management (hierarchical) and is efficient in clear task allocation. Line - and - staff organization also has a hierarchical structure with staff for support, and matrix organization has a more flexible structure with fewer rigid layers. So the line organization is the one with many layers of management and is efficient.
