Question

In delegating routine tasks to subordinates, the expert supervisor will give them sufficient ___________________ to match the responsibility he has imposed on them

Answer 1

Answer:

In delegating routine tasks to subordinates, the expert supervisor will give them sufficient Authority to match the responsibility he has imposed on them

Explanation:

What the supervisor needs to give the subordinates to which he delegates a particular task is Authority that will match the responsibility he has imposed on him.

According to Henri Fayol 14 principles of management, the principle of Authority and responsibility are two sides of a coin. i.e, for every responsibility delegated to a manager  there should be an accompany power or authority that will give the manager the right to give orders to the people that are below him  

Hence, sufficient authority must accompany responsibilities placed on managers.
