The correct answer is D. participative.

Explanation:

Participation is nothing other than decision making among the subjects that integrate a task or project. It is a way of assuming roles and interacting in a context in which specific objectives have previously been set.

Participating implies consensus, debate, exchange of ideas, assumption of positions and, in some cases, negotiation. It is also diversity, openness, active listening, dialogue, inclusion and greater horizontality.

The participatory leadership model is quite useful for those processes that are not focused only on results. Also in cases where these are complex tasks that must have more than one opinion.
