Refinement sounds like it’s more about improving existing processes rather than pushing for change. I think I’ll go with coercion for this one.

I'm torn between coercion and goal-oriented change. Coercion seems more aggressive, but goal-oriented could also push people towards change.

I think a 'push' strategy might be coercion, but I'm not entirely sure. It feels like it forces change rather than encourages it.

Coercion seems like the most 'push' approach out of these options. I'm leaning towards A, but I'll double-check the definitions to be sure.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. I'm pretty sure 'push' strategies are more directive and top-down. I'll go with A.

Okay, let me see. I think 'push' strategies are more forceful, so I'm guessing it's either A or C. I'll have to weigh the options.
