Why is decentralization more popular in profit-seeking organizations than in nonprofit organizations?

a. Due to how costly it is to implement, decentralization only works for profit-seeking organizations and not for nonprofit organizations.

b. It is more difficult to hold managers of nonprofit organizations responsible for performance because inputs and outputs are generally more difficult to measure. Without reliable performance measures, granting managerial freedom is more risky.

c. In a nonprofit, the local managers do not make decisions that are in the organization's best interests. Only because they want to improve their own segment's performance at the expense of the organization.

d. Due to the lack of qualified personnel, it is easier for profit-seeking organizations to keep all the decision-making authority only at the highest levels of the organization than it is for nonprofit organizations.
