Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3
Rationale: According to Peter Drucker, an organization's life cycle includes growth, stability, and decline. Periodic evaluations to determine necessary change to keep up performance will prevent decline. The organization should not avoid crises, as crises are important to force the organization to assess itself through periodic evaluations of the organization itself. Management should not allow only expected outcomes to occur, as sometimes unexpected outcomes are also helpful in preventing decline.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 1; 2; 4; 5

Rationale:

 The clinical specialist suggests changing the type of dressing. A leader can have expert power, as suggested by the clinical specialist. This nurse is recognized as having clinical expertise, so others follow those suggestions.
 The night shift nurse is the vice president's niece. The nurse on night shift who is the vice president's niece is representative of the connection power of a leader.
 The nurse manager asks a nurse to work more than 2 hours. A manager having legitimate power is represented by the nurse manager asking the nurse to work more than 2 hours. A leader might not have legitimate power unless the leader is also the manager.
 The charge nurse knows who has to take calls over the holiday weekend. Information power is represented by the charge nurse who knows the call schedule when others do not.
 The day shift nurse has frequently been awarded nurse of the year. Referent power exists when someone is recognized as being exceptionally skilled, as is represented by the nurse of the year.
