Which of the following most accurately describes the paradox of memory in management?
 
  A) If managers believe employees to be capable of self-motivation and allow self-management, they risk losing productivity, while if they manage every aspect of the work, they risk employee disengagement.
  B) If employees internalize the organization's goals, they will work towards them, but may also lose the motivation and flexibility to be creative in achieving those goals.
