Dear Members & Teachers,

What is the best way to connect the following two ideas:

"Nevertheless, there are still many decisions controlled by the top-level management ( _ _ _ _ _ _) the regional directors are left with little authority and greater responsibility"
- while
- whereas
- in which

:roll:
Waiting for your kind responses

Welcome to Using English.

What do you think the answer is? Why do you think so?

In the beginning I used (while) but when I sent my paper to the "writing center" in my school they changed it to (in which), but in fact, I am not convinced by their change,, maybe they did not understand the meaning which I want to express in my own language "Arabia".
Now, after I did a couple search, I tend to use (whereas)
???

I would use your original "while" or Nevertheless, there are still many decisions controlled by the top-level management, leaving the regional directors with little authority and greater responsibility"

Your appreciation is welcome, MGG124, but there is no need to write a new post to say it. Simply click the Thank button on any posts you find helpful. It means that we don't have to open the thread again to read your new post and then find that it doesn't include any new information or an additional question. It saves your time and ours.

Additionally, there was no need to quote Barb_D's reply. It was a great answer but we don't need to read it all again.
