Isaac Solis · Answer 1

The answer is D. autonomy. Autonomy in management is the art of allowing a great deal of freedom to make choices in the work place. A manager who grants an employee autonomy generally outlines the goal of a project but allows the employee to decide the best way to achieve that goal. For example in our case Assume and the company works in autonomy such that he can work from home and get the work delivered to the design director.
