Answer to Question 1

c

a. Incorrect: This option implies that change is easy, not challenging.
b. Incorrect: Culture is not easily visible to employees and managers.
c. Correct: Making change in an organization can be difficult because an organization's culture is pervasive and largely hidden from employees and managers, and it is hard for anyone to change something they are unaware of.

Answer to Question 2

B
Some tactics that may help to enhance the quality of one's sleep: reserve your bed for sleeping only,
do not use caffeine to stay awake or alcohol to fall asleep, make sleep a priority, establish a routine
before bed that is repeated nightly, try drinking warm milk or decaffeinated tea at bedtime, and if
thoughts of work prevent you from falling asleep, write your thoughts down on a piece of paper and
leave them there to deal with in the morning.
