4. Delegating authority:
Every individual is given the authority necessary to perform the
assigned activity effectively. By authority we mean power to take
decisions, issue instructions, guiding the subordinates, supervise
and control them.
Authority delegated to a person should commensurate with his
responsibility. An individual cannot perform his job without the
necessary authority or power. Authority flows from top to bottom
and responsibility from bottom to top.
5. Co-ordinating activities:
The activities and efforts of different individuals are then
synchronized. Such co-ordination is necessary to ensure effective
performance of specialized functions. Inter-relationship between
different jobs and individuals are clearly defined so that everybody
knows from whom he has to take orders and to whom he is
answerable.
