22. (p. 50) Andy manages the art department of a small advertising firm with limited resources. Despite these challenges, his creative team has a great reputation and is highly sought after. As the company grows, they have gotten new client business from large, high profile companies that demand top quality artwork. This creates a highly stressful work environment. When he feels his staff is asked to perform a seemingly impossible task, he lacks civility and self-control; thus he has a reputation of being extremely difficult to work with. What anger management tip would you suggest to Andy in his situation?
A. Develop strategies to calm down such as taking a deep breath, or take a walk.
B. Apply the Adult Learning Cycle to Self-Control

51. (p. 44) Robin, Mark, and Joe are personal friends who have all decided to work together as a team on class projects. As team members, Robin tends to be the supporter in the group, while Mark is the analyzer, and Joe is the director. Mark and Joe tend to be assertive in their tactics to develop projects, timelines, and completion strategies, while Robin is passive. On their first project, Robin was surprised by the lack of effort Mark and Joe seemed to put into their portion of the research. They listened to her feedback and agreed to send revisions of their work. When she received their final revisions to put a paper together, she had to do a lot of rework and research to verify confusing aspects of their data. In the end, she felt like she did most of the project on her own. Robin is in a difficult situation because Mark and Joe are her friends. She does not want to leave their team, yet she is not sure how to approach her friends with her dissatisfaction with their work. She is the type that may end up doing her friends' work for them just to avoid strife.

52. (p. 44) There is a code of ethics Charlie must follow as a teacher for the protection of both the children he is working with and himself as a professional. One of those areas of ethics is his legal obligation to report any suspected child abuse to proper authorities. As a new teacher in a rural school district, Charlie has noticed through conversations of the veteran teachers that corporal punishment is a common occurrence for the children in the culture he is working in. As the months go by, Charlie has noticed bruises on a child and brought it to the attention of the principal who supported his decision to call a social worker to investigate. Later that day, an influential teacher in the school who has worked with the child approached Charlie in an angry confrontation. She insulted him for his naiveté, explaining that he should ask around before he decides to meddle in a family's business. Now Charlie is faced with a dilemma. If he calls the proper authorities, he understands that he could be hurting a family, and he will be very unpopular in his job. Based on what you know about critical thinking, professionalism and ethics, what advice would you recommend to Charlie?
