It is also known as the span of management or the span of authority.<\/p>\n<p>The span of control is typically determined by the manager&#8217;s ability to communicate effectively with subordinates, the level of training and experience of subordinates, the complexity of tasks, and the degree of interdependence among tasks.<\/p>\n<p>A narrow span of control means that a manager has a small number of subordinates. This can be effective when tasks are complex and require a high level of coordination. A wide span of control means that a manager has a large number of subordinates. This can be effective when tasks are simple and do not require a high level of coordination.<\/p>\n<p>The optimal span of control varies depending on the situation. However, a span of control that is too narrow or too wide can be ineffective. A span of control that is too narrow can lead to micromanagement, while a span of control that is too wide can lead to a lack of supervision.<\/p>\n<p>A. Span of business is the range of products or services that a company offers.<br \/>\nB. Span of activity is the range of tasks that a person or group is responsible for.<br \/>\nD.
