Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Cooperation occurs when two or more parties are working together towards some common goal. Cooperation is essential to organizational success. Competition occurs when two or more people, groups, or organizations are seeking to maximize their own gains, often at the expense of the other parties. With competition there are winners and losers. Positive consequences of conflict include:
1 Improving the quality of organizational decisions.
2 Bringing problems that have been previously ignored out in the open.
3 Motivating people to appreciate others positions more fully.
4 Encouraging people to consider new ideas.
