Lynette is the new head of operations for ShurWay, a nationwide corporation with offices in several major cities. Promoted to headquarters from an office in another city, she will be overseeing people who have long worked together and may feel some resistance to an "outsider." Therefore, it is important for her to establish herself as a leader in their eyes. She will have an opportunity to do just that tomorrow, when she will be invited to make some remarks at a departmental get-together organized in her honor. The best way for Lynette to set the right tone is to let everyone know that she is ready to
A) take charge of the department, which means that she will not tolerate dissent and will deal as severely as possible with anyone who makes trouble for her.
B) create a fully open, non-hierarchical environment in which she is simply the first among equals, dedicated to ensuring a nurturing work situation for all employees.
C) do everything she can, both in terms of her position and her knowledge and other abilities, to help each employee do what they need to do to help the company meet its objectives.
D) work tirelessly on behalf of each employee, learning from them as she goes, in order to help them meet their personal objectives, which will most likely help the company in the end.
E) use every element of authority she has to ensure that all employees are doing their jobs as well as possible, and thus to create a department that will be the envy of all other departments.
