true or false

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a  company increases the amount of business units it is harder to be informed about each business unit. When the manager try to understand and review all the information about the business units the time is not enough, in that case the sustainability of a multiple units business model is a challenge. When this happens, the manager can empower a business unit manager, so the corporate manager just needs to know the basic information and be informed about the decisions and results obtained evaluating the results of the business unit.
