答案:
9.C
Rationale:The'country club'is low-task,high-people focus and 1.9 on Blake and Mouton's managerial grid.This describes Monica.Impoverished is 1.1(both low),task management is 9.1(all about the task),and dampened pendulum is 5.5(swinging between the two extremes).
10.C
Rationale:Psychologically distant managers(PDMs)maintain distance from their subordinates and they prefer formal procedures rather than informal ones,for example,a formal consultation method.Ways in:Hopefully you were able to rule out the fourth statement and therefore option D.Psychologically close managers are closer to their subordinates.If you remembered that PDMs prefer formal procedures then you may have been able to work out that statements 1,2 and 3 were correct.
