C) If the organization's goals are too broad, both managers and employees will have difficulty in focusing their efforts, while if the goals are too narrowly defined, employees could disregard alternative ways of achieving them.
D) If past organizational experiences are believed to be valid for today, present market signals may be ignored. However, if the organizational past is doubted frequently, the organization will lack stability.
