Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation: 1. Authority compliance has the highest regard for the work at hand and the lowest regard for
the human elements. The opposite would be country club, in which the relationships between
people are higher than the regard for work. The team style has high regard for both task and
people. Impoverished decisions lack concern for the task and the people.
