The correct answer is

A system where decision-making authority is concentrated at the top level

A hierarchical model of management arranges an organisation in a pyramid of levels, with a clear chain of command running from top management down to the staff.

In a media house this means that owners, editors-in-chief and senior managers take the major decisions, which then flow downward through departmental heads to reporters and other employees.

Decentralised decision-making and equal decision-making power for all employees describe flat or participative structures, the opposite of a hierarchy.

A structure without any formal leadership has no levels at all, so it cannot be called hierarchical.

Hence, A system where decision-making authority is concentrated at the top level.
