CASE STUDY: STAFFING

QUESTIONS:
1. Can you identify the problem? State the problem.

- The issue in the case study is that the supervisors in the organization aren't doing a
good job, and it's because of the department manager. The problem gets worse because
the criteria for picking supervisors aren't good enough. They focus too much on technical
skills and how long someone has been around, and not enough on important managerial
skills and potential. The department manager's frustration shows that there's a big
problem with 40% of supervisors being chosen poorly. It's important to fix this by creating
a better and more careful way of picking supervisors.

2. Base from the case, can you enumerate the reasons why the company has 40% failure
state in selecting supervisors?

- The company may be having trouble picking good supervisors because they don't have
clear rules for choosing them. The people in charge of picking supervisors are mainly
looking at things like technical skills or how long someone has been there, and they're
not thinking about important management skills. Also, the manager seems upset
because they're realizing that the way they're choosing supervisors might lead to people
who are good at the technical stuff but not so good at managing, which is causing a lot of
problems.
-
3. Can you recommend at least three solutions in this case?

(Alternative 1 or Solution 1): Have a Comprehensive Training Programs


- Have a training programs that focus on improving the management and leadership
abilities of people who could become supervisors. So that they can learn things like
communication, solving conflicts, building teams, and other important skills for
managing. By providing this training, the organization can make sure that employees
who are good at their jobs also have the right skills to be successful being a supervisor.

(Alternative 2 or Solution 2): Create a Multi-Criteria Evaluation System


- Make a system to pick supervisors that looks at more than just technical skills. This
system should consider a mix of technical skills, how well the person works with others,
their ability to lead, and if they're ready for managing. This way, the organization can find
people who are good at these things, not just technically, and avoid picking supervisors
just because they're good at their job or have been around for a long time.

(Alternative 3 or Solution 3): Introduce Mentorship Programs


- Set up programs where experienced supervisors help and guide the new ones.
This lets people who are good at technical stuff also learn how to be a manager while
still doing their work. Having a mentor makes it easier for new managers to learn the ins
and outs of leading a team, with their examples and advice given.

4. Among the three alternatives or solutions which one will you recommend? Why?
Explain your answer briefly.

- I recommend going with "Alternative 3 or Solution 3" because it gives experienced


supervisors a way to help and guide new managers. This helps the new managers
develop leadership skills and their technical knowledge. The mentorship setup makes it
easier for new managers to transition into their roles by providing practical examples and
useful advice.
