mathematical concept of superior-subordinate
relationships.He has proved that a number of direct,group
and cross relationships exist between a manager and his
subordinates. With an increase in the number of subordinates
reporting to a manager,the number of direct and group
relationship increases.in direct relationship the number of
direct single relationships will be equal to the number of
subordinates under one superior.and group relationship means
the relationship of subordinate in the groups of two or

for finding out the group relationships:-

subordinates working under the common superior.The formula
for finding out the cross relationship is:-
