Question

Xin and Yoshi are going over plans for an organizational restructuring. They enjoy working together, but they disagree about whether to outsource staff functions such as human resources. Eventually Xin says, "Okay, let’s lay out all of our arguments for and against outsourcing. Then we can look at them to see if some carry more weight than others."
Which of the following outcomes are likely in this situation? Check all that apply.

(A) The coworkers will challenge current thinking about the problem.
(B) The coworkers will experience less job satisfaction.
(C) Xin and Yoshi will be motivated to solve the problem.
(D) Xin and Yoshi will distrust one another.

Answer 1

Answer: Option C is correct.

When making the business decisions Xin and Yoshi must consider the financial and non financial aspects of the problems and decisions they are committed to move forward with. So writing down the problems might resolve the issues because Xin and Yoshi would be considering financial and non financial aspects of the problems and relevant decisions they would take. This meant that they will be more motivated to resolve the issues they are facing in their business because they have similar objectives which is wealth maximization.
