UST believes that decentralization of authority among the senior staff will help to develop a solid foundation for an efficient management system to ensure accountability and transparency at all level from decision making at top management to implementation of activity at field level. The ultimate result will end in maximum utilization of resources for the benefit of poor and poorest people in Bangladesh. UST maintain three tier management systems with bottom up approach.
