Priya is an event coordinator who solely reports to Rahul, the head of the Events Department. Anil is Rahul's immediate boss, overseeing several departments, including the Events Department. Anita joins the company and is trained by Priya for her new role in the Events Department. Who is Anita's superior, and can Anil assign tasks directly to Priya? Provide a very brief response.
Priya reports directly to Rahul, and since Anita is trained by Priya for a role in the Events Department, Priya acts as Anita's direct supervisor within that department. Therefore, Anita's superior is Priya in the context of daily responsibilities and departmental tasks. Anil, being the head of several departments including Events, is the superior to both Priya and Rahul. Given his position, Anil has the authority to oversee Rahul's work, and by extension, he can also assign tasks directly to Priya if he chooses to do so, bypassing Rahul for those specific tasks since he is above both in the organizational hierarchy. However, under normal circumstances, Anil would typically manage tasks through Rahul who would then delegate to Priya, maintaining the established chain of command.
