The term "cookie cutter management" refers to the tendency for departments or organizations to adopt policies or practices from others without considering whether they are appropriate or effective in their specific context. This can lead to a lack of creativity and innovation, as well as potential problems if the adopted policies or practices do not work well in the new context. The other options (A) strategic management, (B) satisficing, and (D) transformation management are not directly related to this concept.
