Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Behavior comes from the individual and the context. Google co-founder Larry Page believes that innovation is a key strategic goal for Google. To accomplish this, employee risk taking must be encouraged, and mistakes and chaos are an expected and accepted part of the process. Not punishing mistakes, but looking for the learning gained, provides employees with the necessary context and the right motivation to align their behavior with company strategy.
