Answer: Option C

Explanation: Leadership refers to the ability of an individual to influence others behavior for the objective of completing a common goal. Senior level managers refers to the individuals employed at the top rank of an organisation.

The duties of top managers are making important decisions that effect the organisation overall, making strategies and setting goals etc. Thus, the top level managers only make the strategies, monitors the performance and take corrective actions in case of any discrepancy.

The implementation of strategy is done by the lower and middle level managers.

Hence the correct option is C.
