In respect to organizational structure and decision making, a "Flat Structure" is best characterized as: a) A management structure characterized by an overall narrow span of management, a relatively large number of hierarchical levels, tight control, and reduced communication overhead. Decision-making can be quite rapid, if it occurs from the top down.
b) A management structure characterized by a wide span of control and relatively few hierarchical levels, loose control, and ease of delegation. Decision-making is often slower, as it involves a high degree of integration across the company.
c) The location of decision making authority near top organizational levels.
Similar to a tall structure, this expedites decision-making from the top down.
d) The location of decision making authority is relatively evenly dispersed across the company. This works well when creativity and independent operations create value for the organization.
e) None of the answers in this answer set are correct.

A management structure characterized by a wide span of control and relatively few hierarchical levels, loose control, and ease of delegation. Decision-making is often slower, as it involves a high degree of integration across the company.

Explanation:

A flat structure in organisations are characteristized by few or no levels of management between the top management and employees.

This results in less supervision of employees (that is less control). Staff have a higher control over their jobs and have some freedom on how they execute tasks.

Employees are also more involved in decision making. Although there needs to be integrated or involve a large number of people agreeing.

So decision making is relatively slow.

rational decision making is a multi-step process for making choices between alternatives. the process of rational decision making favors logic, objectivity, and analysis over subjectivity and insight. the word “rational” in this context does not mean sane or clear-headed as it does in the colloquial sense.
