Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: Top managers are concerned with designing the overall organization's structure, whereas middle and ower-level managers focus on designing the jobs of individuals and work groups.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: Building codes have little to do with understanding and relating to people, so interpersonal skills and political skills can be ruled out for this question. Interpreting a building code would require a contractor to analyze a complex situation, so it would entail a measure of conceptual skill. However, the difficulty of dealing with a building code is largely a technical matter of understanding and interpreting the terms and various highly specialized conventions of the code itself.
