Answer to Question 1

A
Explanation: A) Conscientious people are valuable in teams because they're good at backing up other team members, and they're also good at sensing when that support is truly needed.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
Explanation: According to the Ohio State Studies, initiating structure indicates the degree to which a leader is likely to define and structure his or her role and those of employees in the search for goal attainment. Initiating structure includes behavior that attempts to organize work, foster work relationships, and achieve goals. A leader high in initiating structure is someone who assigns group members to particular tasks, expects workers to maintain definite standards of performance, and emphasizes the meeting of deadlines.
