Organizational Commitment and Leadership
If you were the team leader of a group how would you refocus
and re-motivate the team toward the improvement goal?
When members were recruited for the improvement project,
they were clearly told that the team’s work would be additional to their
regular work responsibilities but that they had to treat it as a high priority.
Assignments would have to be completed on time, and people would be required to
attend meetings. Despite these clear expectations, by the third week of the
project, team members started arriving late to meetings. They made excuses for
not having completed their assigned tasks and were neglecting to return the
leader’s phone calls.
