Empowerment that employees, managers, or teams at all levels in the organization are given the power to make decisions without asking their superiors for permission. It requires everyone to take responsibility for their actions, illustrated as follows:
Delegation is the assignment to another person of formal authority (legitimate power) and accountability for carrying out specific activities.
Causes
employees to accept accountability and exercise judgment. Improves self confidence and willingness to take decision. frequently leads to better decisions. Speeds up decision making.
Sometimes
Managers are disorganized or inflexible to delegate work effectively. Insecurity & confusion about who is ultimately responsible for a specific task. Some Managers fear that delegating authority reduces their own authority. Some employees want to avoid responsibility and risk.
Decide which tasks can be delegated. Decide who should get the assignment. Provide sufficient resources for carrying out delegated task. Delegate the assignment. Be prepared to run interference, if necessary. Establish a feedback system.
Decentralization is the tendency to disperse decision-making authority in an organized structure. It requires careful selection of which decision to push down the organization structure and which to hold near the top.
Centralization of authority that was once decentralized; normally not a complete reversal of decentralization, as the authority delegated is not wholly withdrawn.
