  Définition

  A theory and practice of management holding that a supervisor, manager, or executive cannot operate efficiently if he has more than a limited number of subordinates reporting directly to him.

  Note :

  Generally, the higher the level or work, the smaller the number of directly reporting subordinates. For example, the span of control for a general manager might be limited to six to nine subordinates while that of a shop floor supervisor might include several hundred.
