The main benefits of pushing decision making to the far reaches of an organization are:

·         Fleeting business opportunities can be seized quickly.

·         Products and services better reflect subtle shifts in customers’ preferences.

·         Empowered workers are motivated to innovate and take risks.

 

 

But while the value of such an approach is clear, particularly in a volatile business environment, there is also a built-in risk: an organization in which everyone is a decision maker has the potential to spin out of control.
