Answer 1

Hall's Polychronicity theory is about how people handle time. In cultures that have a polychronic orientation, multitasking is common, relationships tend toward the circular, change is seen as a natural phenomenon, and time is viewed as being flexible and elastic. People who are oriented more toward polychronicity tend to put a greater importance on relationships and interactions and may do multiple things simultaneously. The key with polychronicity understanding is that focus is on relationships over punctuality and commitments, time is seen as expandable rather than limited, and meetings might be fragmented due to continuous interruptions. However, option "C. Time is money" doesn't reflect the theory as it portrays a monochronic perspective where time is used as a measurable resource.
