Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Delegation, job enlargement, and participative management are consistent with Theory Y assumptions, as they involve trust in employees, providing them with opportunities to grow and develop, and involving them in decision-making processes. Job creation and change management may also be consistent with Theory Y, but they are not mentioned in McGregor's suggested strategies. Leadership is a broad term that can encompass both Theory X and Theory Y approaches depending on how it is practiced. Therefore, choice A is the best answer.
