Case Study Application: Motivational Factors Influencing Teams
Leadership methods, organizational role systems, and employee attitudes significantly impact organizational culture. Employee motivation and team performance are directly related to organizational success, making it essential for organizational leaders to balance employee satisfaction and profitable production. However, organizations may sometimes need to change existing role systems in order to meet organizational goals. This change may create stress on employee relationships and team dynamics. As an agent of change, which motivational factors do you think are important to consider when implementing changes? Which strategies can you use to positively influence employees and team members?
To prepare:
- Review this week’s Learning Resources.
- Read “Activity 5–2: The Slade Plating Department Case.” (attached)
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 4 a brief description of the background factors that are important in understanding the emergent role system that is developed in the plating room. Using Exhibit 6 (pg. 129), which shows the various subgroups that developed in the plating room, discuss why the Sarto and Clark subgroups are the two most important. What are the characteristics that probably account for group membership in each of these two groups? Then, list the norms of the emergent role system that developed in this case. Finally, identify the most critical problem at the Slade Plating Department and provide some alternate solutions for it.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
