Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Although some people think that whistleblowing involves ratting on colleagues or managers, it has an essential function. According to international business expert Alex MacBeath, Whistleblowing can be an invaluable way to alert management to poor business practices within the workplace. Often whistleblowing can be the only way that information about issues such as rule breaking, criminal activity, cover-ups, and fraud can be brought to management's attention before serious damage is suffered.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) The challenge of sending and receiving negative messages can tempt one to delay or distort bad news. However, doing so may not only be unethical but also illegal. In recent years, various stakeholders have sued companies for allegedly withholding or delaying negative information in areas such as finances, environmental hazards, and product safety.
