Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) A message that does not aim to initiate change is usually a waste of time for you and your audience. For example, to send a message to make a complaint about people violating the company's smoking ban is an empty gesture, unless you are asking for a specific change to occur, such as some kind of consequence for violating the ban.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Timing of messages is always critical. For example, a request for logistical help for your team during a time of company crisis is almost sure to be ignored. Instead, wait for the time in which your audience can properly tend to the issue.
