Topic #: 1

[All L3M4 Questions]

Fear of the unknown, peer pressure, organisational politics are examples of reasons why people might:

AInvest in a corporation

BResist change

CResist promotion

DTake up procurement as a career

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The mood of the QUESTION NO : is that something is to be resisted rather than encouraged - the other three options - investment, procurement and promotion are often seen as positives, not negatives.

The answer is 'resist change' - many humans find change very challenging, especially as there seems to be so much of it around.

Organisational politics can lead people to resist change as well, so I would go with B) Resist change.
