Option B.

High outcome orientation

Explanation:

In business, outcome orientation refers to the extent to which business units emphasize action and results in their organizations. It includes also the extent to which they have high expectations for performance, and are competitive.

It means that means of result achievement are downplayed, rather, the achievement of the result itself is used to measure performance.

Maria's boss has a high outcome orientation because he doesn't care the means through which the objectives are achieved. He is only concerned about their achievement according to the organization's specifications.
