Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Temporal orientation.

Explanation:

Holland psychologist Geert Hofstede (1928-2020) proposed there are five dimensions of culture among societies. Those are: <em>Power Distance Index, Individualism Versus Collectivism, Masculinity versus Femininity, Uncertainty Avoidance Index, </em>and<em> Long- Versus Short-Term Orientation. </em>

Long- Versus Short-Term Orientation <em>or </em>Temporal Orientation <em>represents the time horizon individuals of a given society display. Long-term oriented countries are pragmatic, modest and emphasize virtues. Therefore, the Japanese company of the case would be displaying this type of culture by prioritizing objectives for over twenty years rather than two years.</em>
