Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
A principled leader is focused on the members of the team and their needs rather than on self-recognition. The absence of this characteristic can have a negative impact on team function.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Group norming can only be discovered by observing how members behave.
