Resource: Ch. 11, p. 176 of Flawless Consulting

Block (2011) states, “The option is to involve the whole client system much more directly in redefining the problem, naming a desired future, outlined alternative actions, and deciding how to proceed. Many consultants and support people have adopted the whole-system approach and redefined their role to be one of convening people to collectively develop a change strategy“ (p. 176). Block introduces his concept of a whole-system discovery process and can be used in a workplace evaluation.

Evaluate your workplace or one that is familiar to you. Identify an organizational issue and complete a needs assessment of this workplace issue in terms of concepts learned throughout the BS/IOP program. Apply strategies for performance improvement related to the following:

  • Leadership style
  • Organizational culture

  • System of management
  • Decision making
  • Motivational techniques
  • Employee morale

A Nice Manager Case Study

Many human resource professionals choose human resources because they want to help others. Sometimes, their helpfulness can lead to avoiding necessary discussions. This case study gives a common scenario and allows you to consider how you will engage in this scenario from a human resource perspective.

Use The Leadership Experience to read “A Nice Manager” under Leadership Development: Cases for Analysis at the end of Chapter 4, and respond to the following:

  • What does nice mean to you? Do you think nice is a good trait for leaders or the kiss of death? Why?
  • If Harry is passed over for a promotion, what role would you see the human resource professional has in providing feedback versus his direct manager?
