The determinant of span of control is not :

  • A.Functional uniformity
  • B.Leader's ability
  • C.Informal relations
  • D.Geographical location

Answer: C

The factor that is not a determinant of span of control is informal relations.

The standard determinants of how many subordinates one supervisor can control are the nature of the work (how uniform or routine the functions are), the ability and personality of the leader and the subordinates, the geographical location or dispersal of the work, the time the supervisor has, and the age and stability of the organisation.

Functional uniformity, the leader's ability and geographical location are all on that list. Informal relations among employees are part of the human relations side of organisation, but they are not counted among the determinants of the span.
