Answer the following questions:
1. There is often dynamic tension between legal counsel (“say nothing”) and public relations counsel (“be open and transparent”). Do you think that applies to all cultures? What factors might affect that tension?

These solutions may offer step-by-step problem-solving explanations or good writing examples that include modern styles of formatting and construction of bibliographies out of text citations and references. Students may use these solutions for personal skill-building and practice. Unethical use is strictly forbidden.
