Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Emotions such as anger and apathy result from a workplace in which powerlessness is exhibited.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Networking is the result of identifying, valuing, and maintaining relationships with a system of individuals who are sources of information, advice, and support. Many nurses have relatively limited networks within the organizations where they are employed. Active participation in nursing organizations is the most effective method of establishing a professional network outside one's place of employment. Successful networking involves sharing similar ideas and maintaining relationships within a system of individuals who serve as sources of information, advice, and support.
