Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Max Weber, whom was a German scientist, bureaucracy is defined as an organization that highly structured, and formalized. Some of the principle of bureaucracy include:

1. A formal hierarchical structure – A bureaucratic organization, is set up in such a way that the levels below are being controlled by those above it. The basis of centralized decision is the formal hierarchy.

2. Rules-based Management – In a bureaucractic organization, rules are used to exert control such that the lower levels execute and do the decisions that are made by those at the higher levels.
