Which term means to support others as they adjust to change?

• A. Clarify
• B. Encourage
• C. Recover
• D. Iterate

Answer: (B)

The main idea tested is supporting people as they adjust to change, helping them stay motivated and confident during transitions. Encourage is the best fit because it means giving others hope, reassurance, and motivation as they navigate new ways of working or new situations. An example would be a team lead offering praise, sharing progress, and offering help during a rollout to help teammates stay positive and engaged.

Clarify focuses on making information clear, which helps understanding but doesn’t by itself address the emotional side of adjusting to change. Recover is about returning to a previous state after a disruption, not guiding people through the adjustment process. Iterate is about repeating or refining a process to improve it, not about supporting people through change.
