effective practical test which can help the organization to
select the better ones

What is Centralization?
Centralization is an organizational structure that gives the
ability of decision-making responsibilities to higher
management. Few selected members are given the authority to
create and determine strategies and goals. It also clarifies the
motives and mission of the organization, which must follow to
achieve its goals.
In centralization, the type of organizational structure allows
higher management to create the rules including procedures
that are used to communicate with lower-level employees.
Lower-level employees have to obey the rules made by the
higher management organization without doubting the rules
and regulations.

24. Cont.
What is Decentralization?
Decentralization is an organizational structure where the
delegates are assigned to manage the organization. They are
selected by the higher authorities. The selected candidates are
mostly their middle and lower subordinates.
The decentralization type of management helps to organize
daily duties. They also take part in minor decision-making. A lot
of responsibilities are given to the middle and lower levels
subordinates.
Because of the well-distributed job roles, the higher
management authorities get a chance to focus more on major
business decisions

25. Advantages

business as a whole More bureaucratic – often extra
layers in the hierarchy

independent Local or junior managers are likely to much closer
to customer needs

budgets Lack of authority down the hierarchy may reduce
manager motivation

speed in local decision-making

disadvantages as well.
In most cases, there is a lack of flexibility when it comes to hiring and
recruitment decisions—especially if a change needs to happen fast due
to something like high turnover or a sudden increase in one team’s
responsibilities.
On top of that, a centralized recruitment team often has a limited
understanding of the unique needs of each specific business unit or
local market.
Unfortunately, this can result in the recruitment team making ill-fitting
hires due to a poor understanding of department staffing needs,
mismanaging candidate expectations for open roles, or both.
