Answer to Question 1

C
Data should be collected to identify properly the actual problem, issue, or situation. The five core elements to decision making are the following: (1) identification of a problem, issue, or situation; (2) establishment of the criteria to be used to evaluate potential solutions; (3) search for alterna-tive solution or actions; (4) evaluation of the alternative; and (5) selection of a specific alterna-tive.

Answer to Question 2

A
It is well known that intellectual curiosity and a passion for a subject fosters increased motivation for challenging work, recognition, and achievement. Security, status, money, working conditions, interpersonal relations, supervision, and policies and administration provide motivation for work, but not superior performance, and thus still lead to lost productivity because of job dissatisfaction.
