B all the way, baby! Trying to butter up the big boss or strong-arm the naysayers? What is this, a mob movie? Nah, gotta work the crowd, my friend.

D? Really? That's just asking for trouble. You want to collaborate, not strong-arm your way through. I'm going with B, the only way to truly achieve consensus.

C seems like the smart choice here. Those influencers and decision-makers are the ones who can really make or break your goals. Plus, you want to win over both supporters and opponents.

Hmm, I think B is the way to go. Trying to focus on just the top leader or powerful individuals is a recipe for disaster. Gotta get everyone on board!
