A production-planning analyst is listed as 'staff' but frequently gives conflicting daily instructions to assembly workers without the supervisor's approval. What is the likely consequence?
A
Improved unity of command because more people give instructions, building the immediate operating plan around the proposed step
B
Conflicting orders and weakened accountability in the line chain of command
C
Automatic transfer of output accountability from the supervisor to the analyst, aligning roles and schedules to the directive
D
No issue, because staff labels make all instructions advisory, making that action the primary operating response
