Question 1
1.1 Use examples related to Investec to differentiate between middle management
level and low management level. (4 marks)
Middle-level managers
General managers, branch managers, and department managers are all examples of
middle-level managers. They are accountable to the top management for their
department’s function.
Middle-level managers devote more time to organizational and directional functions
than top-level managers. Their roles can be emphasized as:
Executing organizational plans in conformance with the company’s
policies and the objectives of the top management.
Defining and discussing information and policies from top management
to lower management; and most importantly
Inspiring and providing guidance to low-level managers towards better
performance.
Some of their functions are as follows:
Designing and implementing effective group and intergroup work and
information systems.
Defining and monitoring group-level performance indicators.
Diagnosing and resolving problems within and among work groups.
Designing and implementing reward systems supporting cooperative
behaviour.
Low-level managers
Supervisors, section leads, and foremen are examples of low-level management
titles. These managers focus on controlling and directing.
