(c)  When jobs are similar but have varying performance measures

A span of control is the number of people who report to one manager in a hierarchy.

·          The more subordinates under the control of single manager or supervisor- the wider the span of control. This gives rise to a flat organizational structure.

·         Narrow span of control means a single manager or supervisor oversees few subordinates. This gives rise to a tall organizational structure.

 Keeping in view the above definitions, I would like to add that (c) When jobs are similar but have varying performance measures- is the exception.

Well I think controls fail when employee prefers to be autonomous that is he wants some kind of power to do things in a way he likes best.

(c)  When jobs are similar but have varying performance measures
