Arrange the following steps of organizing process in the correct sequence:

(A) Duty assignment

(B) Dividing work into manageable activities

(C) The activities of a similar nature are grouped together.

(D) Creating authority and responsibility relationship

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Option 1 -> (C), (A), (B), (D) - Illogical sequence as grouping activities cannot occur before dividing the work into manageable parts.

Option 2 -> (C), (B), (A), (D) - Incorrect sequence as activities must first be divided before they can be grouped by similarity.

Option 3 -> (B), (C), (A), (D) - Follows the logical organizing process: first divide work, then group similar activities (departmentalization), assign duties, and finally establish authority-responsibility relationships.

Option 4 -> (B), (A), (C), (D) - Incorrect as duty assignment cannot happen before grouping similar activities together.


Hence, Option 3: (B), (C), (A), (D) -> The organizing process flows systematically: (B) Break down total work into smaller, manageable activities → (C) Group similar activities together (departmentalization) → (A) Assign specific duties to individuals/positions → (D) Establish clear authority and responsibility relationships to ensure accountability and coordination -> correct
