Explanation

Continually adapting roles to evolving organizational requirements (C) is correct because in fast-moving environments, rigid job definitions quickly become obsolete - organizations must treat roles as dynamic constructs that flex alongside technology shifts and market demands. Option A is wrong because narrowing focus to a single role reduces adaptability, which is the opposite of what change-driven environments need. Option B is flawed for the same reason at the technology level: building careers around a single technology creates brittleness, since that technology may be deprecated or disrupted. Option D is a partial truth but too narrow - technical experience alone doesn't address the structural need to redesign roles themselves as requirements change. Memory tip: Think of it as "roles as living documents" - just as software gets updated to meet new requirements, roles must be continuously revised rather than locked in place.
