Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Delayering involves reducing the number of reporting levels in an organization, which can lead to a flatter hierarchy and improved communication and decision-making. Broadbanding refers to collapsing multiple salary grades into broader bands, while downsizing involves reducing the overall size of the organization. Reinforcing and reengineering are not relevant to the concept of reducing reporting levels.
