A.
Vertical

B.
Goal

C.
Domain

D.
Perception

Answer 1

Answer:

D.  Perception

Explanation:

In the work environment different perceptions coexist within the same group. The problem arises when these perspectives collide. There is a material or quantifiable conflict in those cases in which a person decides that they want to follow different solutions or goals to the rest.

This is a conflict of perception where two different stakeholders experience difference in responsibilities because of their perception.
