The New Professor (Scenario)
Dan Powell recently received a Ph.D.and has begun teaching at a large university.Prior to his first day of class,Dan's department head met with him to discuss the department's expectations and standards regarding classroom discipline,course rigour,and grading.Later that week Dan met with other professors in a faculty meeting.During that meeting,a number of issues were discussed,and although Dan did not agree with all of them,he did not feel comfortable expressing his position because he was a new assistant professor and the others were more senior.However,in watching the reactions of other professors,he got the feeling that some of them disagreed with a few issues too,but did not want to say anything because doing so might be disruptive.
-Midway through his first semester,one of the teams in Dan's class came to him with a problem.Of the four team members,all of them were doing their jobs except Stacey.The group had agreed to have Stacey as a member since they all knew she had a high GPA and worked hard on all of her individual assignments.However,as a team member,the group agreed that they were not getting Stacey's best efforts.They felt like she was not working as hard as a group member as she would as an individual.Dan quickly diagnosed the problem as ________.
A) social loafing
B) groupthink
C) role conflict
D) status conflict
E) relationship conflict
