Carrie is an organizational buyer of a supplier that provides nursery products to Dulko, a large retail store. In a management meeting, she proposes that the company replace their three current suppliers of plastic containers and trays, who have been selling to the company for the past 20 years, with a single supplier who guarantees on-time delivery. Attendees at the meeting are enthusiastic about Carrie's proposal as they like the traditional suppliers and are unwilling to switch. Carrie, in order to maintain acceptance and keep conflict to a minimum, suggests that they try the plan for three months and revert to the original supplier if it fails to work. What kind of an organizational climate is described in this example

    The organisational climate is "lethargic"

    Explanation:

    In a lethargic organisation, the individuals express a strong commitment to the traditionally accepted behavior and behave accordingly. Thus, a buyer in a lethargic organisation would probably be less innovative in order to maintain acceptance and status within the organisation and would keep the conflict within the firm to a minimum (as done by Carrie).
