Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
The workplace conflict is among the staff, so the nurse may best serve the team and helps resolve the conflict by asking the coworkers to meet to brainstorm solutions to the issue, and then discuss pros and cons of each idea and allow the majority vote to choose the method of holiday scheduling to be used. Simply talking to the manager would be the good way to resolve a conflict that just the nurse has, but will not help when the conflict is with all of the nurses. Persuading team members to take the nurse's side will outrage coworkers who want their opinion to be valued. Distributing secret ballots should not be done this early in the conflict because the nurses need to explore solutions before voting on a solution.
