Levels and span of control assuming ppt powerpoint presentation model background designs

Description:

The image is a PowerPoint slide titled "5. Levels & Span of Control," which is designed to illustrate the concept of span of control in organizational structures. It compares the impact of different spans of control on the number of employees that can be effectively supervised by managers at various levels of an organizational hierarchy.

Text Elements:

The header explains the slide's content: levels and span of control in an organization.

A definition is provided: "Span of control refers to the number of employees who can be effectively supervised by a manager."

Two contrasting pyramids demonstrate the span of control: one assumes a span of 4, the other a span of 8.

For the span of 4, the pyramid shows the exponential growth of employees managed at each level, from 1 at the top to 4,096 at the bottom.

For the span of 8, fewer managers are needed as each manager supervises more employees.

In the left pyramid:

Level 1 has 1 manager.

Level 2 has 4 employees.

This pattern continues until level 7, which has 4,096 employees.

In the right pyramid:

Level 1 has 1 manager.

Level 2 has 8 employees.

This pattern continues until level 4, which has 4,096 employees.

At the bottom, calculations are provided to show the total number of employees and the number of managers needed for each span of control.
