Table 13.2
In preparation for grid training, the managers of your company are having their current styles assessed. Elizabeth seems to have a high concern for production and a high concern for people. Bill on the other hand, has a low concern for both dimensions. Recently Elizabeth noticed that one of her employees was not doing well on the job. He was listless, late to work, and his work products were degenerating in quality. Elizabeth decided he had been working too hard and gave him a couple of days off. Bill was transferred to another department. He took three of his subordinates from his old department with him. After being there six months he gave all employees performance appraisals. The subordinates who came with him to the new department all did better than the more experienced people who had been on the job.
