Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

It is a crucial skill because the average executive spends a significant part of each day in meetings and most executives consider at least a third of meetings to be unproductive. Those who run meetings well are judged to be better managers. Knowing when to call a meeting, how to conduct it effectively, and how to follow up are valuable skills.
