Lawson Guzman · Answer 1

B) high outcome orientation

Explanation:

For high outcome orientation organizational cultures, the final results are the most important thing. High achievement is very valued, and the actions taken to fulfill the goals are secondary. Only the final outcome counts.

This type of organization is usually more effective than means oriented organizations (where how work gets done is more important).
