The "Transfer of Authority" refers to the process in which control or responsibility is passed from one individual or organization to another. This can occur in various contexts, such as military operations, government functions, or corporate management. The transfer ensures that the new authority is fully briefed and prepared to take over responsibilities effectively. In military contexts, the transfer often involves a formal ceremony where the outgoing leader hands over command to the incoming leader. This process is crucial for maintaining continuity and ensuring that operations proceed smoothly, especially in situations involving military units or government agencies.
