Answer to Question 1

D
Explanation: D) There are far more engaged employees in highly successful than in average organizations, and groups with more engaged employees have higher levels of productivity, fewer safety incidents, and lower turnover. Academic studies have also found positive outcomes. Practicing managers and scholars alike have lately become interested in facilitating job engagement, believing something deeper than liking a job or finding it interesting drives performance. Critics note that individuals might grow so engaged in their work roles that family responsibilities become an unwelcome intrusion.
