Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Bennis and Nanus (2003) are responsible for the phrase: Leaders are people who do the right thing; managers are people who do things right.

Answer to Question 2

A
Leadership involves influencing the attitudes, beliefs, behaviors, and feelings of other people (Spector, 2006). Leaders influence others, often by inspiring, enlivening, and engaging others to participate. Controlling others and being liked by everyone are not traits of effective leaders. The most valuable followers are skilled, self-directed employees who participate actively in setting the group's direction and invest time and energy into the group.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
