b. The policy made decisions for other departments in the company.

Explanation:

John Smith made the policy alone without involving the other managers. When the policy was implemented, it had to work with other departments to ensure success.

As there are 3 managers and 3 departments at BSG Labs, John Smith should have formulated the new policy with the other managers, so that issues such as scheduling and coordination between bthe various departments will run smoothly.
