An example of a manager exhibiting transformational leadership is Kathy Savitt, founder and chief executive officer of Lockerz. The company operates an e-commerce website that uses social networking tools to engage teens in shopping online. Teens who visit the site can help themselves and their friends earn points toward discounts on the merchandise by clicking images of the items and viewing various kinds of promotional content. The company grew out of Savitt’s passion for serving this young demographic group. Savitt has a vision not only for the company’s place as an Internet marketer but also for the kind of company it should be for its employees. Her vision is of a business in which the employees respect one another and are fearless about innovation. In hiring, Savitt seeks people who not only are highly intelligent but also listen attentively, demonstrate respect for others, and can laugh at themselves. She models her vision of the workplace by addressing problems and setbacks frankly and with a focus on solutions, saying it takes courage to work through failure. Savitt expresses confidence that by bringing in people who have talent plus a drive to contribute, she can create a company culture that avoids cynical practices she has experienced at other companies in the past. For example, she has seen business meetings that play a kind of stump-the-chump game, in which if one employee tries to answer a question or offer an idea, others pile on with criticism. Savitt believes she can avoid that by communicating the values of courage, innovation, and results.

Please read the following case study. Submissions should follow the Case Study Rubric (see below).

M.R., a 59-year-old man, has been seen several times complaining of tremor in his hands that eventually made it difficult for him to work as a computer programmer. A diagnosis of essential tremor was made, and he was prescribed propranolol (Inderal) 20 mg twice daily. M.R. had good effects with the drug and had no further problems until the following June, when acute respiratory distress developed while he was picnicking in a state park with his family. On the way to the emergency room, he suffered an apparent respiratory arrest. He was admitted to the hospital and placed in the respiratory intensive care unit. It was found that M.R. had a history of hay fever and allergic rhinitis during the pollen season but had never experienced such a severe reaction.

Question 1: Why did M.R. have such a severe reaction?

Question 2:  What appropriate measures should be taken to ensure that M.R. recovers fully and does not re-experience this event ?

Question 3: What might you want to teach M.R. about this drug and its potential adverse effects?

Question 4: Using layman's terms, how do you explain to M.R. what happened; and how this situation will be avoided in the future.
