decentralizing
Dispersing authority outward
Decentralizing is the process of distributing power, authority, or functions away from a central location or governing body.
Organizations decentralize when they shift decision-making to regional offices or local units rather than keeping it at headquarters.
In technology, decentralizing often refers to systems like blockchain that operate without a single controlling entity.
The company is decentralizing its operations to give regional managers more autonomy.
