In prescribing policies and procedures that facilitate independent action on the part of empowered employees for good strategy execution, companies need to do ALL of the following EXCEPT
a institute policies that give employees substantial leeway to carry out activities in the way they think is best.
b allow company personnel to act with some defined degree of freedom, especially when individual creativity and initiative are more essential to good strategy execution than standardization and strict conformity.
c empower employees to act within the company's set boundaries in pursuit of company goals.
d give organization members clear direction and place reasonable boundaries on their actions.
e produce policy manuals on strategy execution that prescribe exactly how daily operations are to be conducted.
