CASE Study (management of organization behavior) :
Soltis & Sons is a management consulting firm that is attempting to grow its business by targeting small businesses that are run by women or immigrants. In pursuing this strategy, the company has hired employees of other cultures whose first language is not English. Many of these employees are under 30 and they do not have college degrees. While this effort is leading to a workforce that mirrors the clients, the company finds that employees and managers are experiencing difficulties communicating with one another. This leads to misunderstandings and a decrease in productivity and customer satisfaction. For example, if a manager gives instructions about completing a certain task to an employee who fails to fully comprehend the instructions, the employee may make mistakes.
The director of Human Resources is considering whether or not to offer some type of training, yet none has been offered to date. She thinks some employees may be
impacted by negative stereotypes associated with a lack of work experience with people from different cultures. She also noted that some work teams do not like to be
supervised by younger people of color. A few employees quit over this issue and management is trying to decide what to do.
Using the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach and the Organizing Framework, how can Soltis & Sons address the problem?
Step 1: Define the problem. What are the gaps between the desired outcomes and the current state?
Step 2: Identify causes of the problem. Remember, the diversity climate is an important situation factor. There are also relevant processes across the individual
level (perception, attributions, and psychological safety), the group/team level (group/team dynamics), and the organizational level (options to manage diversity).
These inputs and processes have critical outcomes.
Step 3: Make recommendations for solving the problem. What options does Soltis & Sons have?
Word count : more than 600 words( total of 3 steps ) .
Please help me !! It's important . Thank You.
