Line Management
About Line Management
Line
management refers to the management of employees who are directly
involved in the production or delivery of products, goods, and/or
services. As the interface between an organization and its front-line
workforce, line management represents the lowest level of management
within an organizational hierarchy (as distinct from
top/executive/senior management and middle management).
Why is Line Management important?
Line
managers oversee other employees and the operations of a business while
reporting to a higher-ranking manager. They play an important role in
the operation of many businesses, supervising and managing workers on a
daily basis and acting as a liaison between employees and upper
management.
