____________ is the orderly synchronization of group efforts to provide unity of action, in the pursuit of a common purpose.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Option 1 -> Planning involves deciding objectives and courses of action in advance, but does not specifically deal with synchronizing group efforts.

Option 2 -> Directing focuses on guiding and leading subordinates to perform tasks, but is more about supervision than synchronization of efforts.

Option 3 -> Communication is the exchange of information between people, which facilitates coordination but is not the actual synchronization itself.

Option 4 -> Co-ordination is the process of harmonizing and synchronizing all group activities to achieve unity of action toward common goals.


Hence, Option 4: Co-ordination -> Co-ordination is defined as the orderly arrangement and synchronization of group efforts to provide unity of action in the pursuit of a common purpose. It ensures all departments and individuals work together harmoniously without duplication or conflict, making it the management function that directly matches the given definition -> correct
