Questions answered: 0/2

1. True or False: To save time during a rush, skip the “Why” and just tell the team “What” to do.

True
False
Correct Answer: False. Explaining the “Why” prevents corner-cutting on critical steps like salt-corrosion prep.

2. Which “7 Cs” are missing?: “Finish these railings ASAP. Make them look good.”

Concrete & Complete
Concise & Correct
Correct Answer: Concrete & Complete. “ASAP” is vague. A specific deadline and quantity makes the task actionable.
