Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: C) By enlisting those from outside of management for membership on this team, you are able to reach more people in your organization in a more effective way than an e-mail from a manager could. Hearing about the change from a coworker and seeing how they are committed to and supportive of the change can convince others that the change is for the better. As a result, their psychological barrier to change has been reduced and they may even become supporters and begin spreading the word.

Answer to Question 2

C
