Answer:

The policy is too old; it needs to be revised.

The management team wants to hire new warehouse workers.

If the customer buys four or more items from the catalog, offer a price reduction.

We should both feel comfortable with the final decision.

The corporate directors recommend a full investigation.

The board of directors has approved the current ethics policy.

The regional manager and the district supervisor take all purchasing decisions.

The writer of a well-designed e-mail message knows correct grammar and spelling.

The initial proposals the team submitted reveal how hard they have worked.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct forms of the verb to fill the given blanks would be as mentioned above as they aptly follow the subject-verb agreement. According to the subject-verb agreement, the verb must agree with the subject in number and therefore, a singular subject takes a singular verb to agree and plural subject requires a plural verb. Since the sentences are in present indefinite tense(to denote universal truths, habitual actions, current actions, unchanging situations, etc.), the singular subjects would accompany verbs with s/es while the plural subjects would require the base form of the verb.
