Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: OB research helps managers deal with problems that involve human behavior, including issues of trust, motivation, team cooperation, and managing conflict, making building employee trust the correct answer. The other three choices refer to planning or efficiency issues, not behavioral issues, so they are incorrect responses.
