Answer to Question 1

D
Explanation: D) There is clearly a problem and you have to take time to gather information before you write up a transfer or fire someone, but not weeks of time You won't be able to gather all of the information anyway because everyone has their own bias, perspective, and personal agenda. The context is also hugely important: these people have to work together and you have specific personnel procedures that might impact your actions. Combining all of these factors, the most appropriate is organizational psychology-based decision making.

Answer to Question 2
