  1. centralisation

    Centralisation is a management principle where decision-making authority, control, and power are primarily concentrated at the senior or top levels of an organization or a system. It refers to the hierarchical level within an organization that has authority to make decisions. It is the systematic and consistent concentration of authority at a central point or location within an organization. This means lower levels in the hierarchy have little autonomy and must strictly follow directives from upper management.
