Approaching the Job of Supervisory Leadership.
Peter Gilmore was a capable, energetic manager with the Republic Insurance
Company. He began his career with Republic some 15 years ago, after graduating
with an accounting degree from the night-school program at City University. He
was personable, welI-liked, and bright.
Peter worked hard and diligently, regularly putting in 10-hour days and work on the
weekends. Because of his dedication, Peter had been rewarded with ever?increasing
responsibilities and promotions. He was now serving effectively as the second in
command in the Strategic Management Division.
Peter once summarized his supervisory philosophy and practice in this way: "You
know, every time my boss gave me an assignment, I always worked as hard and
as fast as I could to complete it perfectly and on time. I expect the same from my
subordinates: If I give them something to do, I expect the same from them ? it should
be done correctly and on time. I can't take time to check up on them or see if they
are doing it."
Peter's management practices were good to his word: He delegated projects easily
and would expect them to get done. When he handed out an assignment, he didn't
expect to have to deal with it again until the employee brought back the completed
task within a reasonable time.
1. For this type of supervisory leadership to work successfully, what kind of
reIationship must Peter Gilmore have with his subordinates ? What characteristics
must the employees possess ?
2. What kind of problems, if any, might you expect from this kind of supervision ?
3. What general kinds of supervisory actions should Peter Gilmore be taking ?
