THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF DELEGATION IS TO MAKE ORGANISATION POSSIBLE
![Page 14: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

2. Superiors cannot delegate authority
which they do not have.
![Page 15: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

persons in a position
The assignment of tasks to persons in a position
The delegation of authority for accomplishing these tasks
The holding of people responsible for the accomplishment of these tasks.
![Page 16: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PRINCIPLES OF DELEGATION:Principle of delegation by results expected
Principle of functional definition
Scalar principle
Authority principle
Principle of unity of command
Principle of absoluteness of responsibility
Principle of parity of authority and responsibility
![Page 17: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
PRINCIPLE OF DELEGATION BY RESULTS EXPECTED
Authority delegated to an individual manager should be adequate to ensure the ability to accomplish results expected.
![Page 18: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
PRINCIPLE OF FUNCTIONAL DEFINITION
The more a position or a department has clear definitions of results expected , activities to be undertaken , organizational authority delegated, and authority and informational relationships with other positions understood, the more adequately the responsible individuals can contribute towards accomplishing enterprise objectives.
![Page 19: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
SCALAR PRINCIPLE
The clearer the line of authority from the ultimate authority for management in an enterprise to every subordinate position , the more effective will be responsible decision making and communication.
![Page 20: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
AUTHORITY LEVEL PRINCIPLEMaintainance of intended delegation
requires that decisions within the authority competence of individuals be made by them and not be referred upward in the organization structure.
![Page 21: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PRINCIPLE OF UNITY OF COMMAND
The more completely an individual has a reporting relationship to a single superior , the less the problem of conflict in instructions and the greater the feeling of personal responsibility for results.
![Page 22: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
PRINCIPLE OF ABSOLUTENESS OF RESPONSIBILITY
The responsibility of subordinates to their superiors for performance is absolute , once they have accepted an assignment and the power to carry it out, and the superiors cannot escape responsibility for the organization activities of their subordinates.
![Page 23: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
PRINCIPLE OF PARITY OF RESPONSIBILITY AND AUTHORITY
The responsibility for actions cannot be greater than that implied by authority delegated nor should it be less.
![Page 24: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

DECENTRALISATION..
IT IS THE FUNDAMENTAL ASPECT OF DELEGATION
IT IS MORE OF HOW MUCH OF AUTHORITY IS TO BE DELEGATED RATHER THAN WHAT KIND OF AUTHORITY IS TO BE DELEGATED.
![Page 26: Line and staff](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/554b209bb4c9056f098b54b3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
