D seems like the correct answer, but I'm also kind of curious about the ethnicity of the management team. You know, for research purposes. *wink wink*

I was going to choose C, but then I read D and it just makes more sense. Organizational culture is about the whole ecosystem, not just the top brass.

This is a tricky one, but I'm going with D. Organizational culture is more than just common practices or the background of the management team.

I think option D is the most accurate description. Organizational culture is a complex interplay of various elements, not just a single factor like leadership or ethnicity.
