Problem 1: Avondale Industries' training and development office mandates compliance training for sexual harassment prevention; workplace safety, violence, and substance abuse; diversity; and so forth. Supervisors are required to go through this training every two years. However, supervisors have complained that these topics, while important, are not the only training they need. What they really want is training that will help them adapt quickly to changes and solve problems they face every day as they try to meet their goals. Which statement best explains why the training and development office should be concerned about helping supervisors learn and improve in their jobs?

Option 1: Enabling a supervisor to learn how to do their job better helps the company successfully achieve its overall goals and objectives.

Option 2: When supervisors know how to do their jobs better, they are able to identify ways in which they can adapt to changes and challenges.

Option 3: Improving supervisors' capabilities will directly impact their interactions with their direct reports and help them transfer knowledge to their employees.

Option 4: When a supervisor increases their skills, they are better able to respond to issues that can arise in their area of responsibility.
