Q1c

Leadership is a popular topic in today’s organization. After centuries of studying leaders, it would seem
that there would be an agreed upon definition of leadership. However, this is not the case. There is still
much debate on what makes a good leader. Most texts on leadership try to isolate simple characteristics
of leaders and describe how one might attain them. The truth is that leadership is very complex and
looks different in each individual.

Q2c

The way a person answers the telephone can indicate something about their mood. You can usually
guess a person’s mood just from hearing “hello”. You can immediately tell if they are bored, busy, tired,
frustrated, or relaxed. The way you answer the phone will set the mood for the rest of the conversation.
So, it is best to answer in a positive way.

Q3c

From childhood, we learn about the behavior by watching other people. We observe our parents, family,
and friends. We look to them for examples of how to act. Often, as children, we won’t know which
behaviors are appropriate or inappropriate unless we are told. Not all behaviors are appropriate in every
situation. Furthermore, different people have different ideas about what is and not appropriate.

Q4c

What makes a person successful? Successful people know exactly what they want from life and how
they should get it. In other words, they set a number of clear goals for themselves. Often with a time
limit on when they should reach every goal. For example, they should graduate from university within
three years. Or start their own business before they turn thirty five years old. Perhaps you feel that you
don’t have enough time to carefully think about your lifestyle and the things that are important to you.

Q5c

People respond to change in many different ways. One person might be shocked, another in denial, and
another frustrated. Change, positive or negative, is likely to put people under pressure. However, there
are many ways that people can reduce this pressure.

The first way is to ask questions and seek as much information as possible. People’s attitudes might
change once they know all the facts.
Q6.c

To some, networking is like a trading relationship. Two parties meet and try to find out if they have
anything in common. They either make some sort of exchange or move on. In this sense, networking is
like buying and selling. However, networking can have a much broader scope. It can be a major social
and life skill that can be used in personal and professional life.

Q7c

Visualization is a technique that can be used in a variety of situations. It is a kind of mental practice in
which you imagine yourself in a particular circumstance before it happens. Many different people use
visualization. For example, athletes use it before big games. Politicians. Use it to prepare for speeches. It
works because the subconscious mind cannot tell the difference between what we think is real, and
what is actually real.

Q8

There are a number of factors that affect an organization’s success. Competition is just one of them.
Studying and monitoring the competition is a key element in forming a business strategy. This can be
challenging since competitors are now coming from new and unexpected sources.

Many organizations have computer systems that can provide managers with the information they need
to know.

Q9c

When you have an urgent project with a near- term goal. “Hot list” meetings can be very helpful. Hot list

rapidly each day with no time lost to inefficiencies or misunderstandings. These meetings are frequent
and focused, and much shorter than general meetings.
