Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Developing a topic outline helps the leader think of key issues relevant to the members with which he or she is working. This way, when a member begins talking about concerns related to a particular issue, such as self esteem, anger, or guilt, the leader can use questions or exercises from the outline to broaden the discussion and make it more meaningful to the entire group.
