Employee empowerment refers to the manner in which companies provide their employees with anything and everything they need to succeed. This involves far more than simple resource allocation. Employee empowerment can instil greater trust in leadership, encourage employee motivation, lead to greater creativity, and improve employee retention ー all of which ultimately results in a better bottom line. The benefits of empowerment are many, they include higher levels of employee satisfaction, a sense of shared purpose, and greater collaboration. The overall result for the organization is to deliver enhanced value to the customer. The main disadvantages of employee empowerment is training costs and adjusting to a new power dynamic (Klagge, 1998). Training employees to participate in decision-making tasks can be difficult, especially if the employees have no previous experience with decision making within the organization.
