The three levels of management are the first level, which are supervisors or retail managers. The second level is mid-level managers and are intermediaries between lower-level managers and the highest level within the management. The upper level managers are the top executives in a company.
It depends on the organisation, and the level of the manager. Front line managers will usually have the most people (in absolute numbers) report to them (think a store manager). Higher level managers will progressivly have less people reporting directly to them as multiple lower level managers (representing many more people) will report to those higher up.
1. Top Management - The General Manager, Managing Director, Chief Executive, Board of Directors all belong to this category. Authority mainly lies with this level of management. The top level management generally performs planning and co- ordination function. It lays down the broad policies and goals of the organization. It is also answerable to the shareholders for functioning of the organization. The middle level managers are also appointed by the top level management. It also maintains links with society at large. 2. Middle level Management - The departmental heads and the branch heads belong to this category of management. The Middle level management is answerable to the top level management for functioning of their departments. The middle level management generally performs organizing and directing functions. It implements the organizational goals and plans according to the directions of the top management. They act as mediator between top and lower level management by clarifying and explaining policies from top to lower level. Also the middle level has to communicate significant data and reports from lower level to the top level management. It also boosts the lower level managers for better performance. It even has to train the low level managers. 3. Lower level Management - The foremen, supervisors ,superintendents ,etc. all belong to this category of management. They generally have to personally oversee and direct the lower level employees. This level of management generally performs directing and controlling functions. They train and boost up the workers. They look after the problems and grievances of the workers and try to solve them. ty ^^
At the top of the hierarchy, doesn't have many direct reports. This makes his span of control narrow. Lower in the ranks, managers are responsible for numerous employees.
One of the potential problems in implementing a budget is in creating incentives to lie and cheat. Budgets can be used as performance evaluations, thus creating an incentive to lie. Managers may create budgetary slack or budget padding.This happens when an easily achieved goal (compared to what the goal should be) is created by overstating budgeted costs or understating budgeted revenues (Horngren, Sundem, Stratton, Burgstahler & Schatzberg, 2008). When managers create budgetary slack, it can protect them from budget cuts and unforeseen cost increases or revenue shortfalls. Unfortunately after lower level managers bias revenue and cost budgets, upper level managers attempt to correct the bias. This process can continue to where the lower level management consistently incorporates additional bias to compensate for upper level managements corrections. In turn, upper level management will consistently attempt to correct the bias' (Horngren et al., 2008). The result is a meaningless budget because the numbers are not accurate at all. Thus, the benefits of creating a budget are lost.Horngren, Charles T., Sundem, Gary L., Stratton, William O., Burgstahler, David, & Schatzberg, Jeff. (2008).

Short-range or tactical planning is done for the benefit of lower-level managers
true
in any organization there r two types of structures 1.structured 2.unstructured structured is the one where a hierarchy is maintained while taking a decision i.e top level managers,middle level managers,lower level managers and the work force... unstructured is the one where this hierarchy is not maintained and decisions are taken at any level.....
The span of control of any given manager includes the lower-skilled managers and the workers that are in the span of control of those lower-skilled managers. At each level, skills are imperfect substitutes in the production of output and there are decreasing returns to hiring more agents with the same skill level.

delegate nore planning,organizing and controlling tasks to lower-level managers.
Operational decisions focus on day-to-day activities within the company and are typically made by lower-level managers.
Nug work is hands on work usually completed by lower level employees. Writing reports, creating documentation and other tasks beneath the level of supervisors and managers.
To demote means to reduce someone's rank or position to a lower level.
I think they do more than rule their staff for the growth of an organisation they motivate them.As we know that managers are divided into three stages top managers,middle managers and lower managers.The top gives instructions to the middle managers and the middle managers gives those instructions into the lower managers (supervisors/workers).So the lower managers do not just rule,but do all the work and find ways to meet organisational goals.
