Answer:

The answer is D. He is using the psychological and social dimensions.

Explanation:

From the start of globalisation, it has been a necessity to move people from one part of the global to another. This implies that people will be exposed to each other in one aspect or the other. From a manager's perspective, due to the need to manage individuals from different parts of the world, a certain approach is to be used. Such approach is generally called the global mindset. It entails all the skills or qualities that will help efficient interaction or management of individuals or groups from different parts of the globe.

In this aspect, the global mindset is viewed from 3 different dimensions;

- The psychological dimension which relates to the use of emotions and willpower,

-the social dimension which relates to the ability to create trust and

- the cognitive dimension  which relates to the level of information or know-how possessed by the manager in his/her industry and how he/she makes use of this information.
