Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: Three of Michelle's activities for the day require interpersonal skillsmeeting with the city officials, meeting with the section managers, and handling the employee's complaint. Michelle's research is the only activity she carries out that does not require some measure of interpersonal skill. None of the other skillsconceptual, informational, or politicalis used as frequently.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: In seeking out and working to develop new business opportunities, Michelle is clearly functioning as an entrepreneur. An entrepreneur within an organization develops new products that can be used to improve the organization. In this case, Michelle is seeking to develop a new process that will provide a better and more efficient product. The other three choicesleader, spokesperson, and disturbance handlerare all social functions. Being an entrepreneur can have a social aspect, but a large part of entrepreneurship can be accomplished outside of a social context. For example, a chemist can develop a new formula without the aid of others. In this case, Michelle is developing a new product on her own.
