    B) Political

    Explanation:

    Bolman and Deal's Four-Frame model describes 4 different management frames:

    Structural Human Resource Political : addresses the problems generated by conflicting interest groups vs individual interests within an organization. Politics exist within organizations and they are a way of defining power players (who are not necessarily the supervisors or managers). Coalitions are built between the power players to solve any rising conflicts, and to support the power players' initiatives. Symbolic

    Doug is trying to expand his power within the organization through "political" alliances with other power players.
