Yikes, that CEO needs a reality check. The portfolio manager should definitely go with 'Advising' - you know, offer some sound advice and guidance, but let the team figure it out themselves. After all, you can't force people to succeed, can you? #AdviceOverDirection

Definitely, 'Advising' allows for autonomy and creativity in problem-solving.

Hmm, this is a tough one. Judging by the CEO's demands, I'd say 'Supporting' is the way to go. The portfolio manager should just hold everyone's hand and guide them through this mess. Hopefully, the company won't end up in a dumpster fire. #SupportiveLeadership

Ah, the old 'meet the target or else' ultimatum. Sounds like the portfolio manager needs to put on their best 'yes-man' hat and go with 'Directing'. Gotta keep the boss happy, even if it means bulldozing everyone else. #KeepingTheBoatAfloat

Whoa, that CEO sounds like a real slave driver! I guess the portfolio manager should just do whatever it takes to hit that target, even if it means sacrificing ethics and quality. #WhateverItTakes

But directing is necessary to ensure the target is met without any room for error.
