D - lack of resilience. With all those dispersed units, one little hiccup could bring the whole house of cards tumbling down. Yikes!

Haha, this is a classic case of 'too many cooks in the kitchen'! I'm going with C - inconsistency in decision-making. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure book, but with real-world consequences.

Yeah, it can be chaotic when everyone is making their own choices without a clear direction.

I'm going to have to go with A - inability to adapt. Decentralized structures can be like a bunch of independent fiefdoms, making it hard to pivot when needed.

B - greater costs of control function seems like the most logical answer to me. Keeping tabs on all those autonomous units can't be cheap!

Ooh, this is a tricky one. I'm leaning towards C - inconsistency in decision-making. With a decentralized structure, it's like herding cats, am I right?

That's true, being unable to adapt quickly to changes in the market could definitely hurt a decentralized organization.
