解释:
Candidate A is the best candidate for the investment committee.
●Candidate A alone has expertise in Alternative Investments, which would complement the experience of those on the committee.
●Candidate A has international experience, another diversifying characteristic that may add fresh ideas.
●Her career at three other companies should enable her to express independent opinions and reduce the likelihood of her having a social proof bias.
●Because she is younger than the other committee members, Candidate A may have different perspectives that could add value to the committee.
●Pineda’s leadership style of seeking all privately held information from each committee member means that Candidate A’s ideas would likely be considered.
The best candidate for the investment committee position is Candidate A. She has worked in Alternative Investments, has international experience, and would offer a different perspective from the current members. Her experience with three other companies and the fact that she recently joined the investment management company reduce the chance of her being subject to a social proof bias. Candidate A is younger than the committee members and may have fresh ideas. Thus, Candidate A can be expected to add independent ideas to the committee’s deliberations, and Pineda’s leadership style increases the likelihood that her views will be heard and considered.
Although Candidate B has experience in both the Equity and Fixed Income departments, he may be susceptible to a social proof bias. Although Candidate C has worked for an outside firm in accounting, her experience would be less relevant to the investment committee than that of Candidate A.
