You  also have an employee that has been there for 14 years and has never  been promoted to co-lead or supervisor. He came to you and wants to know  why? He is an older worker and knows what he is doing, however, one of  your co-leads told you that some of the younger workers grumble that he  is too slow and can’t learn new technology. He also stated that unless  he gets the opportunity to move up, he’ll quit and make sure that  management knows you never gave him a chance.  Finally,  there is a brand new worker, a single mother, who is super sharp and a  very hard worker. She told you on your first day there how much she  loves working at the company and wants to progress upward. However,  childcare is an issue and sometimes she needs to leave early. Currently  no one does any work from home (your organization has not embraced it as  a culture), however, in her position (she is inventory control) she  feels she can perform this just as effectively from home several days a  week and ask you if this is possible? What is your response? 

 
You  have just taken over as a Shift Supervisor at Fast Fleet Shoes  Manufacturing and have a team of 30 under you. Your educational and  training level is exactly what you have today. 
Your  teams rotate shifts every 3 weeks and there are two shifts, morning,  0700-3:30 PM and evening, 3PM to 11:30PM. You have the flexibility to  move people around shifts, and you stay on the same shift, with overlap  (i.e. your hours are 9-6). Two co-leads take over when you are not there  and stay on shifts with their workers. 
The  previous supervisor was let go for cause, failure to meet quotas and  leadership inability. The department’s morale is very low and there is a  great deal of pressure for your shift to perform. 
On  top of this, there is a problem with some of your employees, one is  always late and the other calls in sick frequently (you can decide what  factors lead to their absenteeism). The previous supervisor never did  anything about this and everyone knew it was an issue. One of your  co-leads has brought it to your attention and wants to know when you are  going to fix it. 
You  also have an employee that has been there for 14 years and has never  been promoted to co-lead or supervisor. He came to you and wants to know  why? He is an older worker and knows what he is doing, however, one of  your co-leads told you that some of the younger workers grumble that he  is too slow and can’t learn new technology. He also stated that unless  he gets the opportunity to move up, he’ll quit and make sure that  management knows you never gave him a chance. 
Finally,  there is a brand new worker, a single mother, who is super sharp and a  very hard worker. She told you on your first day there how much she  loves working at the company and wants to progress upward. However,  childcare is an issue and sometimes she needs to leave early. Currently  no one does any work from home (your organization has not embraced it as  a culture), however, in her position (she is inventory control) she  feels she can perform this just as effectively from home several days a  week and ask you if this is possible? What is your response? 
You  are to develop a solution to present to each of your co-leads on how to  start fixing some of these issues. Make the paper informative, with  some of the techniques and terms that we have addressed thus far in the  course that deal with new supervisors. This about the terms leaders vs.  managers, counseling, feedback, types of leaders, SMART objectives,  SWOT, generational differences, Theory X and Y, MBWA, and favoritism.  These terms are not all-inclusive and you are welcome to add others to  support your solutions. 
This  can be a narrative summary, informative summary, a letter (albeit a long  one) or a talking summary. You can use the first person to discuss what  you think needs to be done. You can also assign tasks or take tasks away  from co-leaders. 
Your  supervisor, co-leads, and workers can have fictional names, you can add  in additional issues or factors and most of all, have fun and be  creative in developing this workplace. Your co-leads can be good or bad  at their job, you can decide how little or much you want to delegate to  them as well as how much reporting back to you is needed. 
Think  about these challenges you will face as a new supervisor. You may want  to break this into fixing immediate problems, a six-month goal, and  one-year goal.

CASE STUDY – STOP STEALING MY STAFF

George and Ralph Tahashi are brothers that manage two different departments for the family business named Tahashi Technologies. Ralph is the newly appointed head of Technological development and is having transitional issues and conflict with his brother George. George is the manager of Product engineering. Ralph’s problem is that George is taking staff from his department and moving them into his own without prior approval rather than sourcing them from elsewhere. On the other hand, George feels that he is doing the right thing by taking staff from Ralph’s over staffed department. Fully explain any THREE (3) issues from the case that are a source of conflict for the parties involved
Ralph does not agree that his department is overstaffed but believes they will have adequate work in the near future based on projections. He feels that George is interfering with his duties while George is sure that Ralph would do well with a leaner workforce.
The situation is compounded by the fact that most of the people who work under Ralph are asking to be transferred because they feel underutilized, mainly because there are many of them and there is little work to be done. Personnel in his unit are dissatisfied with being there out of boredom, insecurity and feel as if their talents are not being utilized or developed which is demotivating on the job. Furthermore there is the perception that an oversupply of workers exists which is anticipated may lead to staff cuts which is fueling the insecurity which is not being addressed by Ralph. These employee concerns are making it easier for George to ‘poach’ them and have them shift departments.
The brothers have very different personalities and it shows in how they conduct day-to-day business at work. George is very assertive and ambitious, with great interpersonal skills. He is very confident in his abilities as a manager and sees Ralph as being incompetent. Ralph on the other hand comes out as a reserved, private person, who does not work well with big teams of people and finds it difficult to relate to others. Rather than sit and talk about the differences between them and try to find solutions that can for both of them, the brothers directly confronted each other in front of their director. They exchanged accusations and countered accusations without offering any meaningful opinion on how they might come to an agreeable solution. It should be noted however that prior to this confrontation, Ralph had been buried deep in his work, and he did not seem perturbed or bothered by George’s poaching activities that had been going on for some time. It is clear however that they did affect him though he chose to ignore the effect.
John, a company Director, has to help resolve the conflict between the two managers after they bitterly confront each other in his presence. Apart from George and Ralph’s viewpoints the Director also has to consider the opinion of staff member Henry who was recently replaced by Ralph. Henry’s opinion about the conflict is important since he is the Lab manager who was recently replaced by Ralph. Henry had the same problems with George that Ralph is currently experiencing, but he was able to take care of them without directly confronting George.
