The Effects of Different Leadership Styles on how MOTIVATED staff feel
What leadership style do I have?
How motivated would you feel if you worked for me and why might you feel like this?
• I am the Office Manager in the Human Resources Department at a large company in town.
• There are 30 staff in our department, 25 of these have children of school age.
• There have been problems with staff all wanting to book holiday during the July and August period BUT that will leave the business without enough staff to operate the department properly (the business can only have 6 people out at any one time).
• I have decided to call a staff meeting and I have this suggestion for staff:
• They can EITHER agree at the meeting who has what dates … OR
• They can put in their holiday requests and people will get allocated dates on a first come first served basis.

• The armed police will go in first, as it is likely the offender will be armed. Along with the armed police, Frankie and Dylan the sniffer dogs will go in to the house in order to locate all the drugs.
• You lot will then follow me in to the house WHEN I GIVE THE ORDER.
• Make sure you ALL have your safety equipment on and meet back here, ready to go at 5am sharp.
