Assignment: Leadership in Flux
Power and politics, and conflict and negotiation are essential elements in organizational leadership today. It’s important to understand how to lead through these elements to build a positive and successful organization.
Power and leadership are key functions in an organization. Good leaders utilize positive power and communication structures to effectively manage and develop their employees. This all leads to a healthy and productive workplace.
The following Course Outcome is assessed in this Assignment: MT302-5:
Examine the role of the communication and leadership process in relationship to employee effectiveness.
Read the scenario regarding the communication and leadership processes used regarding the employee’s effectiveness.
Scenario (fictional): Fameit Inc. (FI) is a manufacturing company that produces customized frames using all sorts of materials to create frames for certificates, pictures, paintings, etc., all over the world. There are 100 employees that are divided between manufacturing and sales representatives with about 20 staff assigned to managerial/administrative positions in the various departments. About two months ago, the head of production, Nicolas (in his position for the last 5 years), was in a meeting with his staff when the following conversation occurred:
Production Manager Nicolas says at the end of a half-hour meeting to review the production schedule results: “Does anyone have anything to add concerning operations today?”
Production employee Berta: “Well, we are having some problems in production because some of our vendor acrylics are changing composition and are not resulting in the best quality of product when they come off the line. Someone needs to speak with our vendor.”
Production Manager Nicolas: “Anyone else have that problem?” (He waits for 3 seconds for any response and then continues.) “Thanks everyone, I guess that wraps up this meeting. Now back to work!” After a week the Production Manager began to receive reports from the database system that quality control was rejecting some of the final products off the assembly line. In addition, customer complaints and returns now had gotten to the critical point, and executive management had been alerted.
The production manager had a special meeting of his department that same day and admonished the production team saying: “It is your responsibility to see that these products pass quality control. If there is a problem you are to contact me. I hold you all responsible for this lapse in reporting this problem. I will decide shortly who will be working with me to resolve this issue.” The production employee Berta just looked at her colleagues and said, “But boss, I did bring this up at the last meeting.”
The Production Manager responded: “Well, if there was a problem as important as this one, you should have sent a follow-up memo to everyone.” Looking at Berta he continued, “Someone may be losing their job over this!” Then he adjourned the meeting.
Production employee Berta speaking to another employee after the meeting: “I absolutely should not lose my job over this; I told him there was a problem. I am going to lodge a complaint with Human Resources right away.”
