25. Formal V/S Informal Organization

26. Span Of Control
Span of Control can be defined as the total number of direct
subordinates that a manager can control or manage. The number of
subordinates managed by a manager varies depending on the complexity
of the work.
For example, a manager can manage 4-6 subordinates when the nature
of work is complex, whereas, the number can go up to 15-20
subordinates for repetitive or fixed work.

27. Narrow Span of Control
A narrow span of control is a management style where
supervisors manage only a small number of employees. ...
Narrow spans of control are the opposite of wide spans of
control, where many employees report to a single manager
rather than only a few.

 Advantages:
 The manager can supervisor each
of his subordinates intimately.
 The nature of work is usually
complicated.
 Effective communication between
the subordinates and their
manager.
 More layers in the hierarchy of
management.
Disadvantages:
 Too much control over employees
might hamper their original talent and
creativity.
 Extended hierarchy of control results in
a long time in decision-making.
 Narrow span of controlling prevents
cross-functional problem-solving.

29. Narrow Span of Control
Wide span of control: Wide span of control means a
manager can supervise and control effectively a large
number of persons at a time. It is because shorter span of
control leads to rise in number of steps or levels in vertical
chain of command which leads to tall organization.

subordinates are more
independent.

 Ineffective management.
 Increased workload on managers.
 The roles of team members are not
clearly defined.
 Less communication between
managers and subordinates
reduces the control of the manager.
