This document discusses the levels of management in an organization. There are three levels: top-level management, middle-level management, and lower-level management. Top-level management establishes policies, objectives, strategic plans and budgets. Middle-level management carries out the plans of top management and oversees lower-level management. Lower-level management directly oversees operational employees and ensures tasks are completed properly. Together, effective coordination across all levels of management is important for business efficiency and success.
