Clancy engages in a self-oriented role within his team when he ________.

A) strives to be an implementer
B) strives to be a creative problem solver
C) acts in the role of resource investigator
D) focuses on his own needs, such as a craving for recognition

Engaging in a self-oriented role means focusing on one's own needs and desires within the team, such as a craving for recognition. This goes against the idea of working collaboratively and considering the needs of the team as a whole, making it a self-oriented role. Choosing to be an implementer or a creative problem solver can still be team-oriented roles, as they involve contributing to the team's goals and objectives. Acting as a resource investigator also involves considering the needs of the team and searching for external resources that can benefit the team.
