Correct Answer: Leads to inflexibility

  


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Leads to inflexibility.

While planning is generally beneficial, it can have the disadvantage of leading to inflexibility. When plans are created, they establish a predetermined course of action and may limit the ability to adapt or respond to unexpected changes or opportunities. If circumstances change, the planned course of action may become less effective or irrelevant. Inflexibility can hinder an organization's ability to adjust strategies or tactics in a dynamic and evolving environment.
