Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Michael Hitt's work on OD suggests that in order to keep up with the fast-paced environment, companies need creative and well-trained employees. This is because such employees are able to come up with innovative solutions and adapt to changes in the environment. Increased reliance on automatic routines (choice A) may not necessarily be effective in dealing with new challenges, and greater secretiveness (choice C) can hinder communication and collaboration. Managers who work effectively with step-by-step instructions (choice D) may not be able to navigate the complex and dynamic environment that companies face today.
