Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
By understanding what motivates an employee, the nurse is better able to select appropriate motivational strategies. Intimidation is not an effective motivator. Laissez-faire leadership does not focus on motivating staff. People-oriented leaders are better at motivating workers.
