Centralized Organization
organization in which most decision-making authority is held by upper-level
management; centralized authority is most commonly found in companies that face
relatively stable and predictable environments and is also typical of small
businesses; during times of uncertainty, businesses have a tendency to move toward
greater degrees of centralization (COVID 19)
Decentralized Organization
organization in which a great deal of decision-making authority is delegated to levels
of management at points below the top; decentralization is typical in firms that have
complex and dynamic environmental conditions; it is also common in businesses that
specialize in customer services; decentralization makes a company more responsive
by allowing managers increased discretion to make quick decisions in their areas of
responsibility
