Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: It is true that in some cases resisters are so disruptive that they must be disciplined. This is not the best method of assuring successful implementation of a change.
Rationale 2: It is unlikely that everyone affected by the change will see it as positive. Attempts to ensure that everyone is happy with the change are generally a waste of energy and resources.
Rationale 3: Rewards can be positive, but ignoring resisters is dangerous.
Rationale 4: A supportive work environment for those experiencing the change is the strategy most likely to result in an easier transition.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

2
Explanation: 1. Those in the nursing profession must act and speak professionally at all times in all places.
This would increase nursings power image. Becoming politically active, motivating others to
become nurses (while good for the shortage), and encouraging others to speak positively
would not necessarily promote a power image. Nurses must do it for themselves.
