Full Answer
C.Task culture✓ Correct
Handy's Task culture is job- or project-oriented. It is characterized by teams forming to solve specific problems and then disbanding or moving on to new projects. It thrives in dynamic environments like tech startups and DAOs.
Common mistakes
Selecting 'Person culture' because of the high skill level of developers. However, the focus is on the *task* (solving the cryptographic problem), not just serving the individuals.
