Toby Is on a Team Whose Objective Is to Interview

question 53

Multiple Choice

Toby is on a team whose objective is to interview all of the senior engineers in your company to gather a repository of institutional wisdom. Toby was given the task of collating all of the transcripts of the interviews. In return, he was responsible for conducting fewer interviews. His teammates were only responsible for conducting interviews. At first, this appeared to be an equitable arrangement, but Toby soon discovered that the work of collating was far more time consuming that anyone had first thought. He'd like to hand all of his interviews over to his teammates so that he can concentrate solely on collation. Toby and his team discuss their options, but since the deadline for the project is looming, his teammates are reluctant to take on additional work. In the end, it is decided that Toby will continue to work exactly as he has been, except that each of his teammates will assist with the collation work. In this scenario, Toby's team's approach to conflict management is to ________.

• A)compromise
• B)avoid conflict
• C)accommodate
• D)collaborate
