Correct Answer: Coordinate activities within departments


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Coordinate activities within departments

Middle-level management plays a key role in coordinating activities within specific departments or units of the organization. They bridge the gap between top management (which focuses on developing long-term strategies and policies) and lower-level management (which oversees day-to-day operations and executes plans and policies). Middle-level managers are responsible for ensuring that the activities in their departments align with the overall goals and strategies set by top management while also coordinating and managing the resources and efforts of their teams.
