Answer to Question 1

C
Reengineering involves a total overhaul of an organizational structure. It is a radical reorganiza-tion of the totality of an organization's structure and work processes. In reengineering, funda-mentally new organizational expectations and relationships are created. Redesign is a technique to analyze tasks to improve efficiency, and restructuring is a technique to enhance organiza-tional productivity.

Answer to Question 2

C
Right supervision is the fifth right of delegation as outlined by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (1995).
