Answer 1

Questions with multiple choice answers imply there is a definitive answer within those offered. A definitive answer is rare. Quantum mechanics shows us why and the lack of correlation between SAT scores and anything other than the capacity to memorize demonstrates their impracticality. Multiple choice questions leave no room for opinions. Questions 1 - 5 concern leadership and culture, subjective values that resist objective and definitive answers. Questions 1 - 6 lack the contexts which might stimulate useful opinions. I need to know more about ISO to answer question 7 but I'm disinclined to even explore that given the limiting assumptions behind the preceding questions. I find the domains of your questions to be interesting however which is why I have offered this "answer."
