Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The Dandelion model is appropriate for companies with strategic business units (SBUs) that still represent a core brand because it allows for a central core (the hub) that represents the brand's main values and mission, while the spokes can be seen as the SBUs that operate semi-independently but are still connected to and derive strength from the core brand. This model supports both autonomy in the SBUs and alignment with the core brand's strategic direction.
