The operation of a line organization centers on 'command-execution':
1. Decision Process: The top level formulates strategies, which are broken down into specific tasks at each level, with the lower levels responsible for execution.
2. Coordination Mechanism: Inter-departmental collaboration relies on top-level coordination, lacking cross-departmental processes.
3. Feedback Path: Issues at the lower levels are reported up the hierarchy step by step, and top-level decisions are communicated down the hierarchy.

Top Management: Such as general managers and plant managers, responsible for strategic decision-making and resource allocation.
Middle Management: Such as department heads, responsible for task breakdown and execution supervision.
