Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Empowerment of the supervisor's job is ongoing. Some of the power previously held by those whose jobs have been eliminated will be delegated to the supervisors they used to supervise. This shift means that the line supervisor or team leader of the past can take a more positive stance. She or he can submit new suggestions with more freedom and more influence. In short, the line supervisor will play a bigger role in the total management team. Upper management (those left) will have to listen more and react to what they hear.
