Exin VERISMF Exam - Topic 4 Question 30 Discussion

What does the term "shadow behavior" encompass within the organizational context, and which of the following options best characterizes it?
C) In the context of strategic decision-making and governance, is it most apt to define 'shadow behavior' as the discreet implementation of systems or solutions without explicit organizational endorsement, often entailing an element of secrecy or informality?
A) Within the realm of organizational dynamics, 'shadow behavior' encompasses intricate phenomena; is it best described as a junior employee engaging in the process of observing and learning from a senior counterpart through the practice of job-shadowing and on-the-job experiences?
B) Amid the intricate fabric of organizational culture, could 'shadow behavior' be equated with the establishment of a tribal system wherein team members find themselves overshadowed by more dominant personalities, thus influencing their decision-making and actions?
D) Regarding the seamless provision of IT services within an organization, is 'shadow behavior' most accurately reflected in the situation where IT services are delivered with such impeccable proficiency that the end consumers remain blissfully unaware of the intricate IT processes at play?

I remember discussing shadow behavior in class, but I'm not sure if it relates more to informal practices or just observing others.
