Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mintzberg's problem with previous attempts to define the manager's job is that they separate the job components behaviorally, which he argues is an unrealistic depiction of the job. He believes that the job is too complex to be broken down into separate components and must be viewed holistically. Therefore, choice B is not correct. Choices C and D are not accurate descriptions of Mintzberg's critique.
