Solution : The correct answer is (c) Directing.

Directing is a key management function that involves guiding, motivating, leading, and overseeing employees to achieve organizational goals and objectives.

In this scenario, the supervisor is actively involved in directing employees to reach their fullest potential and succeed both personally and professionally.
