Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is boundaryless.

Explanation:

A boundaryless organization is an association in which management has managed to eliminate the barriers between internal levels, work functions and departments, as well as reduce external barriers between the association and those with whom it works. The development of a business in an organization without limits could include the creation of a more horizontal management structure, the promotion of interdepartmental projects and the empowerment of staff members.
