Answer to Question 1

The five most prevalent climate categories are instrumental, caring, independence, law and code, and rules. Each explains the mindset, expectations, and values of the managers and employees in relationship to their organization. In an instrumental ethical climate, managers may frame their decision making around the assumption that employees are egoistic. In a caring climate, managers may operate under the expectation that their decisions will positively affect the greatest number of stakeholders possible. In a climate of independence, personal moral ideas dictate an individual's workplace behavior. Law and code climates require managers and employees to use an external standardized moral compass, while rules climates tend to operate by internal standardized expectations.

A
Explanation: A) The essence of distributive bargaining is negotiating over who gets what share of a fixed pie. Fixed pie refers to a set amount of goods or services to be divided up. When the pie is fixed, or parties believe it is, they tend to bargain distributively.
