Empowerment Concept
The term empowerment means the
decentralization of powers by the various hierarchic levels of the
organization, which allows a creation of more motivation on the
employees provided by a bigger freedom of initiative, with natural
benefits for the organizations as a whole. Passes through the authority
delegation to a certain individual or group within an organization,
being, however, accompanied and supported by the supervisors. Each
individual must have the necessary and sufficient power to control his
own work, reduce costs and promote efficiency and motivation. This
concept has becoming to be more followed in the business environment,
since it’s understood as a critical factor of long term success.
