to a power or right of an individual to take decisions by making efficient utilization of resources. Authority includes giving commands and orders to make the tasks done.

Freedom of subordinates Refers to the extent of liberty given to subordinates by their managers to accomplish delegated tasks. Level of communication between managers and employees Implies that there should be an open communication between managers and employees for the successful delegation of authority. THE PREREQUISITES OF EFFECTIVE DELEGATION © 2011, Dreamtech Press :: Chapter 10 13
14.
Job design
involves aggregating the tasks, duties, and responsibilities associated with a job into a single unit of work, to achieve the organizational objectives. Job design is useful in reducing job dissatisfaction, making the job specialized, and increasing productivity. The jobs that are not properly designed result in increased rate of attrition, low productivity, and high overall cost of the organization. Job design helps to create a match between job requirements and available human resource attributes. JOB DESIGN © 2011, Dreamtech Press :: Chapter 10 14

an indispensable management concept that encompasses influences, mechanisms, and processes to ensure that the individual actions are based on the set rules of an organization.
