question 6

Essay

Professional football teams have both a coach and a general manager. The general manager is usually responsible for the general operations of the organization and maintains the decision rights for selecting personnel on the football team. The coach is responsible for the training of the football team and making decisions on game day. Many coaches have been unhappy with their relationship with the general manager and feel they should have more decision rights in choosing the players on the team. Some of the top coaches are now insisting on also being general managers.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of separating the duties of the coach and general manager with respect to selecting members of the football team?
