Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, E, F
According to Peter Drucker, knowledge workers provide service, interact with the customer, represent
the organization, and accomplish its goals. These workers bring specialized, expert knowledge to the
organization, and they are valued for what they know. The knowledge worker focuses more on
organizational goals than personal goals.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, D, E
Herzberg's hygiene-maintenance factors include status, job security, quality of supervision, safe and
tolerable work conditions, and relationships with others. Advancement opportunities, achievement,
recognition, the work itself, personal growth, and responsibility are all motivation factors.
