Sherman Marketing has a large client in the restaurant industry.
Given the restrictions due to the Covid 19 Pandemic, revenue is
down for this client. They are asking for a new advertising plan to
turn around the losses. You have given this task to your best team.
The team consists of 4 long standing members: Amy, Bob, Cara, and
Donovan. The team has worked together for nearly a decade, is a top
performing team, and has little if any direct supervision from
management. As with many companies, the team members are all
working from home and meet via zoom as needed. When you scheduled a
meeting to go over the new assignment, only Amy and Bob were in
attendance. The others replied that they had family conflicts with
online schooling for their kids and would catch up via email later
with Amy and Bob. Amy and Bob seem fine with this and said that
they are used to meeting as only two with the others on email
exclusively.
1. Describe the task focus and type of team autonomy for
the team. 2. What problems do you foresee with the team being able
to satisfy the client's need for a new advertising plan? Provide
specific suggestions (based on your chapter 1 reading) to resolve
the problems you describe.
