Correct Answer: Assertion is true, but the reason is false.


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Assertion is true, but the reason is false.

The assertion is true. An organization's structure does determine the flow of authority and communication. The organizational structure, whether hierarchical, flat, matrix, etc., defines the formal relationships and channels through which authority is delegated and communication flows within the organization.

The reason is false. The organizational structure does impact the decision-making process within the organization. The structure can influence how decisions are made, who is involved in the decision-making process, and how information is communicated for effective decision-making. The decision-making process is inherently linked to the organization's structure and cannot be separated from it.
