Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: D) The mentor must raise their expectations of the mentee's level of performance. If the mentor doesn't have high expectations, the influence on performance won't occur. When the mentor raises their expectations of the mentee, the mentor's behavior toward the mentee will change. They might positively reinforce aspects of a sales transaction they observe or provide helpful tips and advice to develop the mentee's skills. This in turn will change the mentee's expectation, then their behavior, and this will result in a higher outcome, which in this case is sales performance.
