Conduct some research and identify an organization that may have had setbacks due to lack of employee decision-making. Provide a quick overview of what may have happened.
The organisation which I would like to talk about is Nokia. Nokia was once one of the fast growing companies where its phones were the best selling and best models all around the world. The mistake Nokia did to make it fell down was the ineffective decision making. Nokia made the phones and was at the highest peak back in 1980- 2010 when the phones were simpler and basic. Although with time the technology increased and Apple and other companies launched their smartphones with smart operating systems. The CEO of Nokia did the mistake of not understanding the changing dimensions of the business market and made the decision to not adapt itself and would work on providing such phones without Android or IOS system. After a few years only, Nokie was abandoner and everyone around the world shifted to smartphones we are using today. Nokia later turned to be bankrupted and was purchased by Microsoft. This is an example of how ineffective decision making could make yor business fall apart.
