I feel like this question is similar to one we practiced about global competition, but I can't recall if that was more about D or something else.

I remember discussing how companies like DuPont wanted to be more flexible, so maybe it's about improving adaptability, which aligns with option C.

I think the answer might be C because decentralization helps companies adapt better to local markets, but I'm not entirely sure.
