Improving on time delivery of results to satisfy customers and reinforce or expand informal networks to satisfy employees are common reasons for the expanding use of:

A) assessment centers in selection
B) work teams
C) employee stock ownership
D) synergy
E) globalization

Work teams are often utilized in order to improve on-time delivery of results and to reinforce or expand informal networks among employees. Employee stock ownership and globalization may have benefits for satisfaction and motivation, but they are not directly related to improving on-time delivery or reinforcing informal networks. Assessment centers may help with selection, but are not specifically related to these goals. Synergy is a concept that refers to the interaction between two or more parts of a system, and is not a specific tool or strategy for improving on-time delivery or reinforcing informal networks.
