| Abstract | The primary purpose of this paper is to facilitate a more systematic approach to development of a single theory of administration from the present formal and informal theories. It limits its focus to determining when the use of formal communication channels, informal channels or some combination thereof contributes to the effectiveness of the administrator and when verbal, written or some combination of these methods facilitate an administrator's effectiveness when using the formal and informal networks. Clarification of the alternatives available to the administrator is attained by the specification of channels and methods of using them. |
