Not sure if all workers lack ambition, though.

I vaguely remember that Theory X suggests workers need close supervision, but I'm unsure if that means they lack ambition.

I feel like all the options could be related, especially the assumptions about workers. Maybe B is the best choice?

I'm going with C. It's the only one that directly addresses the 'management styles' part of the question. Though I do enjoy the irony of 'lack of confidence in their workers' being an option. That's the understatement of the century!

Option B? Really? That's like saying 'all of the above' - it's just a cop-out answer. Come on, test writers, you can do better than that!

As a production line worker myself, I can tell you that option A is spot on. The management definitely assumes we're a bunch of lazy slackers who can't be trusted with any responsibility.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I was leaning towards option E, but now I'm second-guessing myself. Theory X leadership is definitely a hallmark of those environments.

Yeah, Theory X leadership is all about assuming workers lack ambition and dislike responsibility, so it makes sense in that context.
