Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

Answer to Question 2

Zach has to engage in surface acting on a daily basis. He has to smile and act positive regardless of his felt emotions in order to be successful. Certainly there will be times when Zach has emotional dissonance, or feels a disparity between his true emotions and how he must appear to his clients. Zach uses his emotions and moods positively to guide his clients into making quick decisions in the purchase of his products. People in good moods tend to make quicker decisions. Finally, Zach applies his moods and positive emotions to provide excellent customer service to his clients. He spreads his good mood through emotional contagion and is able to get his customers to make larger orders and remain loyal to him in the competitive pharmaceutical industry.
