Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
Option 1 -> Incorrectly matches Scalar Chain with employee turnover instead of chain of authority.
Option 2 -> Incorrectly matches Scalar Chain with employee turnover and other misalignments.
Option 3 -> Correctly matches all principles: Scalar Chain with formal authority lines, Equity with fairness, Stability of Personnel with minimizing turnover, and Esprit De Corps with team spirit.
Option 4 -> Incorrectly swaps Stability of Personnel with Esprit De Corps definitions.
Hence, Option 3: (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II) -> Scalar Chain refers to the formal hierarchical chain of command from top to bottom management (III). Equity ensures fair and just treatment of all employees (IV). Stability of Personnel emphasizes minimizing employee turnover for organizational efficiency (I). Esprit De Corps promotes team spirit, unity and harmony among employees (II). These are key principles from Henri Fayol's 14 Principles of Management. -> correct
