a. The self-driving vehicle industry is changing too much for the top-down approach to be effective.

b. The top-down approach can only be applied to specific business functions.

c. The top-down approach leaves other employees uncertain about their roles in the company.

d. The top-down approach is expensive to maintain, leaving the company at a competitive disadvantage.

Answer:

a. The self-driving vehicle industry is changing too much for the top-down approach to be effective.

The top-down approach is a model in which there is a hierarchical style and the decisions are made by the manager and then informed down the organizational chart and the lower levels have to accept the decisions. In this approach, people in the lower levels have low participation and influence on the decisions and as the firm's industry is changing too much, this people would posses crucial information and specialized knowledge that the top level might not have and because of that, this approach might not be effective. According to that, the answer is that this scenario is wrong because the self-driving vehicle industry is changing too much for the top-down approach to be effective.
