Solution

The correct option is A
True

True. Planning reduces creativity as planning is done by top management. Middle and lower level management are neither allowed to deviate from plans nor permitted to act on their own. They are just expected to carry out orders. Thus, creativity inherent in them get wasted and nothing new or innovative comes out of them.
