Answer to Question 1

a

a. Correct: According to Quinn (2011 ), organizational culture encompasses the taken-for-granted values, underlying assumptions, expectations, collective memories, and definitions present in an organization.
b. Incorrect: Organizational culture guides employees' interpretation of events, but not necessarily their reaction to events.
c. Incorrect: This is a definition of organizational climate, not organizational culture.
d. Incorrect: Organizational culture evolves over time.

Answer to Question 2

C
The critical thinking process that nurses use to gather, interpret, share, and apply information is what
transforms their information into power. Power in nursing is created through the relationships nurse
develop. What makes power come alive is commitment. Empowerment includes the concepts of choice
and control to implement changes in attitudes, nursing practice, and health care structures.
