C) supply chain analysis
D) human resources management
E) continuous improvement

The belief that organization members should find ways to serve customer needs more quickly is a key principle of continuous improvement, which focuses on constantly identifying and eliminating waste, inefficiency, and bottlenecks in processes and workflows to better meet customer needs and expectations. Performance management, performance appraisal, supply chain analysis, and human resources management may all play a role in supporting continuous improvement, but they do not encompass this principle on their own.
