Answer to Question 1

B
Explanation: B) Individuals have a finite capacity for processing data. When the information we have to work with exceeds our processing capacity, the result is information overload.

Answer to Question 2

A
Explanation: A) Charismatic leaders who are larger than life don't necessarily act in the best interest of their organizations. Many have allowed their personal goals to override the goals of the organization. It is little wonder research has shown that individuals who are narcissistic are also higher in some behaviors associated with charismatic leadership.
