Co-ordination is the process of synchronizing activities of various persons in the organization in order to achieve goals. Co-ordination undertaken at every level of management. At the top level the chief executive will co-ordinate the activities of functional or departmental managers. If there is lack of co-ordination between production and sales departments then either production will suffer or sales will suffer. Similarly I personnel department will like to know the manpower needs of various departments. No department will be able to function with a proper co-ordination with finance department. At middle/lower levels of management the deputy managers / foreman / supervisors will co-ordinate the work of persons working under them. The purpose of co-ordination is to create team work and harmony in the enterprise. It is the blending of human efforts in order to achieve better organization goals.
Co-ordination creates a mental awareness among all employees and their efforts are directed in unison. An organization is like a human body. As various parts o the body combine together to do a work, similarly the different segments of the organization should work in unison so that task is completed in a better way.
