Levels of Management Video Lecture | Business Studies for Grade 12

now going to the different levels of
management in every organization there
is a particular hierarchy that has to be
followed okay when I talk about
hierarchy the best example that you
would understand here is that is you
that is present in your schools right
you have the principal at the topmost
level right then you have others as vice
principals have mistresses and the
supervisors supervisors thereafter you
have the PG T's that is the teachers who
are teaching class 11 controls then we
have the deities and then we have the PR
T's right so there is a certain
hierarchy in an organization which is
form now in an organization when we say
there are top level management middle
level management and supervisory or
operational level of management and the
top level of the management we have the
chief executive officer the chief
operating officer okay
the managing director alright the chief
finance officer all these people they
are responsible for framing of policies
of the organization
setting up the main goals and objectives
to be achieved by the organization
second level comes the middle level
management now after the top level
management they have framed the policies
which I will be further forward and the
goals and objectives which are to be
achieved the same are conveyed to the
middle level managers now who all found
in the middle level management we know
that the entire organization they they
it is divided into different departments
we have production department we have
sales department we have finance
department marketing department says
promotional department right and all
these departments they are headed by a
person we have the marketing manager
production manager sales manager human
resource manager right so all these
people they come in middle level of
management what is their job they are
going to interpret the policies which
have
framed by the top-level management and
are going to assign they are going to
translate the goals and objectives set
up by the top-level management in terms
of work which is to be done by the
supervisor supervisory or the operation
level of Management they are very
important link between the top-level
management and the Supervisory level of
Management meaning they are going to
convey what the top level the top level
management has decided that is the goals
and objectives and policies to the
supervisory level of management and
whatever grievances jovi problems
supervisory level of management workers
go ahead go can make irinka top level
management then coming to supervisory
level of management topic on our case
our factory Foreman okay our factory
Foreman now what is their job they are
going to give instructions to the
workmen they are going to ensure that
the work is being done in accordance
with the organizational goals which have
been raided by the top level of
management then they are going to convey
the grievances of the workers to the
middle level of management they are
going to convey the grievances of the
workers to the middle level of
management right so these are the three
levels of management drop middle and
supervisory right now coming to nature
of management P under nature of
management we are going to talk about if
management is a science or is it a nod
or is it a profession now for us to be
deciding upon that whether management is
a science art or profession we first
need to understand what are the
characteristics of science what are the
characteristics of art and what are the
characteristics of profession and how
far is management able to satisfy these
characteristics let us first begin with
management as science what are the
distinguishing feature
science science is a systematized body
of knowledge right
science is a systematized body of
knowledge it has its own theories and it
has its own principles which are based
on observation and repeated
experimentation right second principles
are based on experimentation as I just
said all scientific principles are based
on observation and repeated
experimentation and they are going to
give the same result under the
controlled conditions right last
universal application all the principles
of science all principles of science
right our theories of science they are
universally applicable they're
applicable in all situation I mean they
are given they are applicable in all
situations right now as far as
management is concerned does management
have a systematized body of knowledge
yes management also has its own set of
theories which have been developed over
a period of time so it satisfies this
characteristics that is systematized
body of knowledge then principles based
on experimentation now you are going to
study the management in circles in the
next chapter but those management
principles have also been they have also
been formulated after observation and
repeated experimentation right but there
is a difference in case of scientific
principles right you are going to get
the same result whenever you apply that
principle but because management deals
with human behavior it deals with human
behavior which is finding
so it is not necessary that application
of a particular principle is going to
give you the same kind of a result right
like if they talk if we talk about
principle of division of work right it
may give different results in two
different situations so management
principles based on the American
principles are also based on
experimentation but I'm not going to
give the same result in all situations
so we can say management is a kind ofin
in exact science then they say
management sorry universal application
scientific principle we said that they
are universally applicable but in case
of management principles management
principles are also universally
applicable that is they they can be
applied in all types of organizations
but as a seven-second point also the
result of the application of the
management principles is not going to be
the same it is contingent upon the
situation in which it is going to be
applied so we can conclude that
management
you
