Correct Answer: Unity of direction


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Unity of direction.

Unity of direction is one of the principles of management introduced by Henri Fayol, a pioneer in the field of management theory. It emphasizes the importance of ensuring that activities within an organization are directed towards a common goal or objective. This principle suggests that related activities should be grouped together under one coordinated effort, with a single plan of action to achieve a specific objective.
