Options:

A) forming

B) inertia following the first meeting

C) second phase of inertia before the group's last meeting

D) storming

E) transition following the halfway mark in the timeline

Answer:

E) transition following the halfway mark in the timeline

Explanation:

Tabby already formed the groups or teams that are going to be in charge of carrying out the organization's different projects, and they already started their work. Even though she is not part of any team, she must supervise them and is feeling really anxious because the number of new projects and she hasn't received information about existing projects.

Transition means change, and the Tabby is expecting change, since she knows that the individual projects must already be in their way or about to be finished. Apparently the business that Tabby's organization handles have a short life, since a one month long project is considered very long. She is expecting results.
