Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Self-awareness is one of the central aspects of emotional intelligence. Emotional
intelligence does not necessarily involve removing emotion from decision-making or removing
emotion from interpersonal interactions. Awareness of others' emotions is a dimension of
emotional intelligence, but the appropriate response to this is not normally increased
assertiveness.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Leader activities associated with transformational leadership include creating a
vision, building relationships, developing trust, and building self-esteem. An emphasis on
rewards and punishment is associated with transactional leadership. Consensus is not
appropriate for every decision, and the interests of individual employees cannot always
supersede the interests of the organization.
