Correct Answer: The ability to make decisions and give orders


Solution : The correct answer is (b) The ability to make decisions and give orders.

Authority is the power to make decisions and give orders that others are expected to obey. It can be formal or informal, and it can come from a variety of sources, such as a job title, expertise, or personal relationships. Employee empowerment is the process of giving employees more authority to make decisions and take action. Limiting communication and enhancing cross-functional collaboration are important for effective teamwork, but they are not the same as authority. Authority is an important part of any organization. It allows people to make decisions and take action without having to go through a long chain of command. It also helps to ensure that everyone is working towards the same goals.
