Answer to Question 1

D
Behaviors that result in corrective action measures can be categorized into developmental or a failure
to follow policies and procedures. The nurse's inability to complete assignments in a timely manner
most likely does not have to do with the nurse's inability to understand the rules, but shows that the
nurse may need some guidance and coaching on time management from their manager. Excessive
absenteeism is a form of failing to comply with policies and procedures, which necessitates
disciplinary corrective action. A union complaint does not necessarily require corrective action unless
it occurs as a result of a corrective or disciplinary action, such as a verbal warning.

Answer to Question 2

C
According to Tuckman and Jensen's team process, the team is most likely in the performing stage.
During this stage, team roles become more functional and flexible, and structural issues are resolved,
leading to supportive task performance through group-directed collaboration and resources sharing.
