Question

Which of the following is not a merit of the formal organisation?

• A. Scalar chain of command is followed.
• B. It leads to the effective achievement of organisational goals.
• C. It is easier to fix responsibility for mistakes.
• D. It leads to faster spread of information and rapid feedback.

Answer 1

The correct option is D

It leads to faster spread of information and rapid feedback.

Answer (d) It leads to faster spread of information and rapid feedback.

Explanation: The formal organisation is concerned with the good design of positions and jobs with clear-cut relationships and functions as recommended by the top-level management. This kind of association is built by the management to understand the goals of a business and is limited by rules, frameworks, and systems. Faster spreading of information and rapid feedback is not a merit of formal organisation, this happens in an informal setup.
