Marking-scheme solution
(i)
Benefits of specialisation
§ Organisation leads to a systematic allocation of jobs amongst
the workforce.
§ Repetitive performance of a particular task allows a worker to
gain experience in that area and leads to specialisation.
(ii)
Clarity in working relationships
§ The establishment of working relationships clarifies lines of
communication and specifies who is to report whom.
§ It helps in creating a hierarchical order thereby enabling the
fixation of responsibility and specification to the extent of
authority to be exercised by an individual.
(iii)
Adaptation to change
§ The process of organising allows a business enterprise to
accommodate changes in the business environment.
§ It also provides much needed stability to the enterprise as it can
then continue to survive and grow in spite of changes.
Explain the following points of importance of ‘Delegation’:
(i)
Effective management
(ii)
Employee development
(iii)
Better coordination
(i)
Effective Management
§ By empowering the employees, the managers are able to
function more efficiently as they get more time to concentrate
on important matters.
§ Freedom from doing routine work provides them with
opportunities to excel in new areas.
(ii)
Employee Development
§ As a result of delegation, employees get more opportunities to
utilise their talent and this may give rise to latent abilities in
them.
§ It allows them to develop those skills which will enable them to
perform complex tasks and resume those responsibilities which
will improve their career prospects.
(iii)
Better Co-ordination
§ Authority, responsibility and accountability – the elements of
delegation help to define the powers, duties and answerability
related to various positions in an organisation.
§ This helps to avoid overlapping of duties and duplication of
effort as it gives a clear picture of the work being done at
various levels and helps in developing and maintaining co-
ordination amongst the departments, levels and functions of
management.
