It’s official now. An efficiency expert – paid for with private funds – has determined that UNC Chapel Hill is a mess. But hey, if you’re one of the ubiquitous supervisors on the campus, you’ve got the best gig on the planet. From the News & Observer: (emphasis is mine)
SUPERVISION: UNC-CH is 10 layers deep in some areas, meaning that a worker has nine people above him on the organizational ladder. And more than half of campus supervisors oversee three or fewer workers. UNC-CH should eliminate some supervisors and give more control to those who continue in those roles, the report said. Fewer management layers would lead to fewer meetings and less duplication, and could save up to $12 million annually, it said.
