You have three brothers. They are working in three different MNCs as GeneralManager, Supervisor and Deputy Personnel Manager. What functions ofmanagement do you think they are performing in their companies? Are theyperforming the same functions of management? If yes, how?

All the three brothers of mine are working on three different levels of management, such as, toplevel, lower level and middle level. They are performing the same functions of management, suchas, planning, organising, staffing, directing and controlling. It means all the functions ofmanagement are performed at all the three levels of management. But there is only a differenceof degree. For example, planning is considered the most important function at the top while atthe lower level directing is all important.
