Answer to Question 2

Henri Fayol was a French industrialist who pioneered ideas about how organizations should be structured. He advocated the division of labor, the practice of dividing work into specialized tasks that enable people to specialize in what they do best. He also argued that in any organization, it should always be clear to whom each worker is responsible; that is, which managers have authority over them.
