Lukas is part of a system that uses decentralization as its main method of decision making.

Explanation:

Decentralization or is the process whereby the activities of an organization, especially those regarding decision making and planning are delegated away and distributed from a central authority. In decentralization, the top management delegates daily operations and decision-making responsibilities to middle and lower levels.

The top management can therefore concentrate on making major decisions for the organization. Organizations often use decentralization to enhance efficiency among employees. Decentralization also leads to improvement of job satisfaction and employee morale among lower level employees.
