Answer 1

The Competing Values Framework (CVF) categorizes organizational culture based on the dimensions of horizontal and vertical focus and preference for flexibility or stability.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Competing Values Framework (CVF) is a model that categorizes organizational culture based on two dimensions: horizontal and vertical.

1. The horizontal dimension of the CVF represents the organization's focus, either inward on internal dynamics and employees or outward toward the external environment and customers.
2. The vertical dimension of the CVF represents the organization's preference for flexibility and discretion or stability and control.

Therefore, the horizontal dimension of the CVF matches with the description of expressing the organization's focus inward or outward, while the vertical dimension matches with the description of expressing the organization's preference for flexibility or stability.
