Answer options

• A. Transfer the projects to an external consulting firm to prevent their failure.
• B. Wait for the new administration to express opinions about the projects.
• C. Resign and leave the projects, as there will be no chance to finish them.
• D. Present the projects that are underway and describe their relevance to the organization.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because presenting the projects and their significance helps demonstrate their value to the organization, which may influence decision-makers. Options A and C are drastic measures that do not address the situation proactively, while option B lacks initiative and does not contribute to addressing the cost reduction plans effectively.
