Georgia.

Explanation:

This is because she is motivated by internal motivation, instead of external motivation like Marsha. Marsha's performance may fluctuate since it is contingent on reward and there may be a reluctance to further her skills since she would only be preoccupied on meeting her work goals to acquire performance bonuses. Georgia will not face this issue because she enjoys completing goals for her own satisfaction, and thus she might be more inclined to set personal goals relating to competence to achieve this sense of satisfaction. Dianna, lacks motivation - thus making her the less likely candidate to be the most competent among all these women.
