The fact that functions may not be separated in organization does not in any way way destroy their identity as functions... The ideal of organized efficiency is not the complete segregation but the integrated correlation |of the three primary functions... The organizer must identify these functional principles, as they appear in every job, and make them the basis of his correlation... his duty is to correlate functions as such... The duty of the manager is to correlate who performs these functions... Management however represents the scalar principle... perpendicular correlations... true horizontal correlation requires other contact... The dissemination of understanding... of common purpose, of the relation of individuals to that purpose & to each other.
