Importance of Organization
Specialization - 
Organizational structure is a
network of relationships in
which the work is divided
into units and departments.
This division of work is
helping in bringing
specialization in various
activities of concern.
.
60
Well defined jobs
 Organizational structure
helps in putting right men
on right job which can be
done by selecting people for
various departments

the jobs properly which
clarifies the role of every
person..
61

Organizational structure helps in clarifying the role
positions to every manager .
This can be done by clarifying the powers to every
manager and the way he has to exercise those powers
should be clarified so that misuse of powers do not
take place.
Well defined jobs and responsibilities attached helps
in bringing efficiency into managers working.
 This helps in increasing productivity.
Co-ordination  
Organization is a means of creating co-ordination
among different departments of the enterprise.
It creates clear cut relationships among positions and
ensure mutual co-operation among individuals.
Harmony of work is brought by higher level managers
exercising their authority over interconnected
activities of lower level manager.
.
63
Effective administration
 The organization structure is helpful
in defining the jobs positions.
The roles to be performed by different
managers are clarified.
Specialization is achieved through
division of work.
This all leads to efficient and effective
administration.
.
64
Growth and diversification
 A company’s growth is totally dependant on how efficiently
and smoothly a concern works.
Efficiency can be brought about by clarifying the role
positions to the managers, co-ordination between authority
and responsibility and concentrating on specialization.
 In addition to this, a company can diversify if its potential
grow.
This is possible only when the organization structure is well-
defined.
This is possible through a set of formal structure.
.
65
Sense of security
.
66
Organizational structure clarifies the job positions.
The roles assigned to every manager is clear.
Therefore, clarity of powers helps automatically in
increasing mental satisfaction and thereby a sense of security
in a concern.
This is very important for job- satisfaction.
Scope for new changes
 Where the roles and activities to be performed are clear and
every person gets independence in his working, this provides
enough space to a manager to develop his talents and flourish
his knowledge.
A manager gets ready for taking independent decisions
which can be a road or path to adoption of new techniques of
production.
This scope for bringing new changes into the running of an
enterprise is possible only through a set of organizational
structure..

Differences between
Authority and Responsibility
Authority Responsibility
It is the legal right of a
person or a superior to
command his subordinates.
Authority is attached to the
position of a superior in
concern.
Authority can be delegated
by a superior to a
subordinate
It flows from top to bottom.
It is the obligation of
subordinate to perform the
work assigned to him.
Responsibility arises out of
superior-subordinate
relationship in which
subordinate agrees to carry
out duty given to him.
Responsibility cannot be
shifted and is absolute
It flows from bottom to top.
•92
Delegation of Authority -
A manager alone cannot perform all the tasks assigned to
him. In order to meet the targets, the manager should
delegate authority.
Delegation of Authority means division of authority
and powers downwards to the subordinate.
 Delegation of authority can be defined as
subdivision and sub-allocation of powers to the
subordinates in order to achieve effective results.
Delegation is about entrusting someone else to do parts of
your job.

Elements of Delegation
Authority - in context of a business organization, authority can be defined as the power and right of a person to use and allocate the resources efficiently, to
take decisions and to give orders so as to achieve the organizational objectives. Authority must be well- defined. All people who have the authority should
know what is the scope of their authority is and they shouldn’t misutilize it. Authority is the right to give commands, orders and get the things done. The top
level management has greatest authority.
Authority always flows from top to bottom. It explains how a superior gets work done from his subordinate by clearly explaining what is expected of him and
how he should go about it. Authority should be accompanied with an equal amount of responsibility. Delegating the authority to someone else doesn’t imply
escaping from accountability. Accountability still rest with the person having the utmost authority.
Responsibility - is the duty of the person to complete the task assigned to him. A person who is given the responsibility should ensure that he accomplishes
the tasks assigned to him. If the tasks for which he was held responsible are not completed, then he should not give explanations or excuses. Responsibility
without adequate authority leads to discontent and dissatisfaction among the person. Responsibility flows from bottom to top. The middle level and lower
level management holds more responsibility. The person held responsible for a job is answerable for it. If he performs the tasks assigned as expected, he is
bound for praises. While if he doesn’t accomplish tasks assigned as expected, then also he is answerable for that.
Accountability - means giving explanations for any variance in the actual performance from the expectations set. Accountability can not be delegated. For
•.•99
Relationship between Authority
and Responsibility
Authority is the legal right of person or superior to
command his subordinates while accountability is the
obligation of individual to carry out his duties as per
standards of performance Authority flows from the superiors
to subordinates,in which orders and instructions are given to
subordinates to complete the task.
.
100
example, if ’A’ is given a task with sufficient authority, and
’A’ delegates this task to B and asks him to ensure that task is
done well, responsibility rest with ’B’, but accountability still
rest with ’A’.The top level management is most accountable.
Being accountable means being innovative as the person will
think beyond his scope of job.Accountability, in short, means
being answerable for the end result.Accountability can’t be
escaped. It arises from responsibility.
For achieving delegation, a manager has to work in a system
and has to perform following steps : -
Assignment of tasks and duties
Granting of authority
.
101
Delegation of authority is the base of superior-
subordinate relationship, it involves following steps:-
Assignment of Duties - The delegator first tries to define
the task and duties to the subordinate. He also has to define
the result expected from the subordinates. Clarity of duty as
well as result expected has to be the first step in delegation.
Granting of authority - Subdivision of authority takes
place when a superior divides and shares his authority with
the subordinate. It is for this reason, every subordinate
should be given enough independence to carry the task given
to him by his superiors.The managers at all levels delegate
authority and power which is attached to their job positions.
.
102
It is only through authority, a manager exercises control. In a
way through exercising the control the superior is
demanding accountability from subordinates. If the
marketing manager directs the sales supervisor for 50 units
of sale to be undertaken in a month. If the above standards
are not accomplished, it is the marketing manager who will
be accountable to the chief executive officer.Therefore, we
can say that authority flows from top to bottom and
responsibility flows from bottom to top.Accountability is a
result of responsibility and responsibility is result of
authority.Therefore, for every authority an equal
accountability is attached.

  • 99. Elements of Delegation Authority - in context of a business organization, authority can be defined as the power and right of a person to use and allocate the resources efficiently, to take decisions and to give orders so as to achieve the organizational objectives. Authority must be well- defined. All people who have the authority should know what is the scope of their authority is and they shouldn’t misutilize it. Authority is the right to give commands, orders and get the things done. The top level management has greatest authority. Authority always flows from top to bottom. It explains how a superior gets work done from his subordinate by clearly explaining what is expected of him and how he should go about it. Authority should be accompanied with an equal amount of responsibility. Delegating the authority to someone else doesn’t imply escaping from accountability. Accountability still rest with the person having the utmost authority. Responsibility - is the duty of the person to complete the task assigned to him. A person who is given the responsibility should ensure that he accomplishes the tasks assigned to him. If the tasks for which he was held responsible are not completed, then he should not give explanations or excuses. Responsibility without adequate authority leads to discontent and dissatisfaction among the person. Responsibility flows from bottom to top. The middle level and lower level management holds more responsibility. The person held responsible for a job is answerable for it. If he performs the tasks assigned as expected, he is bound for praises. While if he doesn’t accomplish tasks assigned as expected, then also he is answerable for that. Accountability - means giving explanations for any variance in the actual performance from the expectations set. Accountability can not be delegated. For •.•99

Granting of authority - Subdivision of authority takes place when a superior divides and shares his authority with the subordinate.
