Leadership Practice
The Vice President of operations recently promoted you to branch manager and moved you to a new
branch office where the morale among employees is low and performance is poor. Of the five
employees, Amani has the most tenure with six years. Amani seems to have the lowest morale and is
not motivated to do the work, although she is quite capable of doing it successfully. Bassmah has been
with the company for four years but has not mastered the new software and is performing at a low
level even three months after being trained on the software. Hadeel also has four years with the
company and Rawan has two years. Hadeel and Rawan are responsible for client contact, and while in
the past they worked well together on reaching out to clients, now there are conflicts and low morale.
Samah has been with the company just three months and does not understand what is expected on the
job and is contemplating leaving the company.
Approach the case as the branch manager well versed in situational leadership.
• Explain situational leadership to your Vice President.
• Determine the readiness level of each employee and explain your reasoning.
• Determine the appropriate leader behavior to match the employee level and explain your
reasoning.
• Develop a plan of action as to how you will lead each person to higher performance and morale
and explain it to your Vice President.
Directions :
• Write an essay that includes an introduction paragraph, the essay’s body, and a conclusion
paragraph to address the assignment’s guide questions. Do not address the questions using a
question-and-answer format.
Your well-written paper should meet the following requirements:
• Be 3-5 pages in length, which does not include the title and reference pages, which are never a
part of the content minimum requirements.
• Use Saudi Electronic University academic writing standards and APA style guidelines.
• Support your submission with course material concepts, principles, and theories from the
textbook and at least two current, scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles. Current articles are
those published in the last five years.
• It is strongly encouraged that you submit all assignments to the Turnitin Originality Check prior
to submitting it to your instructor for grading. If you are unsure how to submit an assignment to the
Originality Check tool, review the Turnitin Originality Check–Student Guide for step-by-step
instructions.
In advance of submission, review the grading rubric to see how you will be graded for this
assignment.
