Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: Having an omnipotent view of management means that the company places maximum value on the decisions that its CEO makes. Therefore, all other things being equal, the CEO for a company with an omnipotent view has the most riding on his or her decisions so he or she deserves the greatest compensation. Of course, in the real world this view may or may not hold true.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A company with an omnipotent view of management would tend to hold its leaders responsible for failure and would therefore be more likely to fire its leaders after a poor performance. A company with a symbolic view of management would tend to see the leader's role as less consequential to success or failure, and therefore there would be no reason to fire the CEO if he or she otherwise was doing a good job.
