this charity programme efficiently and effectively. Briefly

explain to Andrew the possible managerial roles that he needs

to play in the project. You may provide examples that are

Answer 1

Andrew would consider using democratic management, not authoritative management such that he takes note of the opinions made by his subordinates.
