Consider the following statements about the levels of management. Statement I: Middle level managers act as a link between top management and supervisory management. Statement II: Supervisory managers spend most of their time framing long-term organisational policies. Which option is correct?

Only Statement I is correct. Middle level managers connect top management with supervisors by translating policies into departmental plans. Supervisors focus on daily operations and guiding workers, while long-term policy formulation is the job of top management, so Statement II is false.

  1. ABoth statements are correct
  2. BOnly Statement I is correctCorrect
  3. COnly Statement II is correct
  4. DBoth statements are incorrect

Explanation

Middle managers, such as department heads, interpret top management's policies and pass instructions to supervisors, so they form the link. Supervisors deal with day-to-day operations and direct workers; long-term policy framing belongs to top management. Hence Statement II is wrong.
