tion of
authority
Centralized Authority
- With centralized authority, important
decisions are made by higher-level managers
- Very small companies tend to be the most
centralized
- Although nearly all organizations have at least
some authority concentrated at the top of the
hierarchy
Advantage
- Less duplication of work, because fewer
employees perform the same task
- The task is often performed by a department
of specialists
- Procedures are uniform and thus easier to
control, all purchasing may have to be put out
to competitive bids
Decentralized Authority
- Important decisions are made by middle-level
and supervisory-level managers
- Power has been delegated throughout the
organization
Advantages
- Authority managers are encouraged to solve
their own problems rather than buck decisions
to a higher level
- Decisions are also made more quickly,
