Assertion (A) It has been suggested that while roles answer the question 'how to be interfaced with other people to reach our goals'? Functions answer the question 'what do you do to accomplish our goals'?
Reason (R) Roles are more relational while functions go beyond inter-personal relations. Functions such as planning, decision-making etc may not necessarily involve working with others and several managerial functions can be performed without communication with people.

A. (A) and (R) both are right, (R) explains (A)

B. (A) is true, (R) is not true

C. (A) and (R) both are not true

D. (A) is wrong, hence (R) is not an explanation of (A)
