Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Explanation: Decision makers tend to take more risks when they frame or view decisions in negative terms (for example, as a way to recover money that has been lost) rather than in positive terms (for example, as a way to generate more money).

Answer to Question 2

C
Explanation: C) Valuing diversity does not directly contribute to the organization's shareholders. When organizations value diversity in the experience, background, and perspectives of their employees, organizations will be better able to respond to dynamic change, consider a broader range of perspectives, and promote a culture of fairness.
