Brianna Mccormick · Answer 1

The answer is a) They allow a manager to tightly control subordinates' initiatives.

Explanation:

In high uncertainty avoidance cultures the development of new ideas makes them uncomfortable and only take risks that they know have success rates. The use of rigid rules assists them with defining what they believe in and how they behave. Therefore, it is considered normal for a manager to be strict with those under his wing.
