The concepts of Authority and responsibility are mostly related. As a good management has the right to give orders and the power to right subordinated. Therefore its naturally to join a relationship on business with authority and responsibility are involve. Whoever assumes authority also assumes responsibility. Authority, according to Fayol, is the principle that managers have the right to give orders with the expectation of obedience. Authority is something that is granted to people. I believe that all authority is good is granted. Authority can be demanded, taken or usurped, but in order for it to really work for the betterment,it is usually granted.
