Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Explanation: Flexible benefits individualize rewards by allowing each employee to choose the compensation package that best satisfies his or her current needs and situation. These plans replace the one-benefit-plan-fits-all programs designed for a male with a wife and two children at home that dominated organizations for decades.

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: D) A boundaryless organization tries to flatten the hierarchy. It encourages usage of cross-hierarchical teams. It encourages participative decision-making practices. It tends to use 360-degree performance appraisals. The boundaryless organization seeks to eliminate the chain of command, to have limitless spans of control, and to replace departments with empowered teams.
