It is the responsibility of the management to ensure that all aspects of functioning in a business are running smoothly. Which of the following policies would be most helpful in ensuring that a business that provides psychological services runs smoothly?
  1. Supervisors have the final say.
  2. Supervision of supervisors is the rule, not the exception.
  3. Disregarding the chain of command is grounds for termination of employment.
  4. The client is always right.
Explanation
Answer: B - In order for a business employing psychologists to run smoothly, no employees should be left unaccountable for their actions, and even supervisors need regular supervision. In regard to following the chain of command, while ideally the first person to consult for advice is the immediate supervisor, in gray areas or in instances where someone’s safety is being threatened, turning to the most knowledgeable available person for guidance might not only be advisable but essential. In therapy, the client is not always right. If clients were permitted to dictate every aspect of treatment, therapy would be a disaster.
