Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Parochialism is a narrow, rather than a broad, point of view. A manager with a parochial view sees things only through his or her own culture and does not try to understand the perspective of a person from another culture.

Explanation: A high assertive rating is the opposite of being timid and shy. Assertive people are confrontational and not reluctant to demand what they want.
