Explanation
Shared resources (D) are individuals split across multiple projects or teams simultaneously. A key disadvantage is divided attention, reduced focus, and time management strain - exactly what the team member describes. This differs from resource overallocation (C), which refers to assigning more work than a resource can handle in general; here, the root cause is specifically the dual-team arrangement (sharing). Dedicated resources (A) would mean the person is assigned to only one team, which is the opposite of the problem. Interproject dependencies (B) refer to scheduling or output dependencies between projects, not resource assignment.
