Final answer:

While specific CEO models about strategic planning as a paperwork project are not mentioned, the acquisitive model of bureaucracy could imply such an approach as it focuses on the aggressive nature of bureaucracies rather than on actual strategic planning.

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of board CEO model that suggests an organization's strategic plan is simply a paperwork project is not explicitly mentioned among the options provided. While we have information on various leadership styles and models of bureaucracy, these do not directly correlate to a specific CEO model that views strategic planning as merely a paperwork project. The models listed, such as the Purposive Rational Model, Psychological Centrality and Board-Centered Leadership Model, Social Constructionist Model, and Governance as Leadership Model, each have their own characterizations and implications on how a CEO or board might approach strategic planning, none of which are clearly defined as viewing the strategic plan as just paperwork.

However, the acquisitive model of bureaucracy might suggest such an approach, as it focuses on the competitive and acquisitive nature of bureaucracies rather than strategic planning as a means to enhance the organization's success. In an academic exercise, one might assume that such an approach could be likened to treating strategic planning as a formality rather than a significant directive undertaking.
