Correct Answer: Improved efficiency and employee development

Solution : The correct answer is (b) Improved efficiency and employee development

Effective delegation involves assigning appropriate tasks and responsibilities to employees based on their skills and abilities. When delegation is done effectively, it can lead to improved efficiency as tasks are handled by individuals with the relevant expertise. Additionally, it promotes employee development by providing opportunities for growth, learning, and skill enhancement through increased responsibilities and challenges. It does not aim to lead to centralized decision-making or enhanced role ambiguity.
