Q14:

Delegation is a compulsory act; decentralization is an optional policy decision.

Delegation has narrow scope; decentralization has wider scope.

Q14:

Delegation is a compulsory act; decentralization is an optional policy decision.

Delegation has narrow scope; decentralization has wider scope.

The delegation's purpose is to lessen the burden of the managers; decentralization is to increase the role of the subordinates in the organisation by giving them more autonomy.

Delegation grants less control by superiors, hence greater freedom of action; decentralization gives more control to superiors, hence less freedom of action.
