Organizational Restructuring

A healthcare organization restructures its staffing system for over six months. Many employees and managers now work with individuals they have never worked with before. An employee requests a meeting with HR to discuss concerns about his new direct nursing supervisor. The employee alleges that the supervisor is a poor departmental leader, citing examples such as not responding to e-mails in a timely manner, not conducting performance feedback and disinterested and rude behavior during employee meetings. Before the restructuring, the supervisor had high-performance ratings and senior management considered him a valuable contributor. Serving in an authoritative role is something completely new for the supervisor. The HR manager considers what action to take in response to the employee complaint, realizing that senior management will probably resist any attempt to move the supervisor to another department. The situation seems to settle down, but a few weeks later, HR receives mor

Part 1: Post a Response

Decision making is the process of identifying and choosing alternative courses of action. While we want to make rational decisions, sometimes we dont . . . sometimes we make non-rational decisions.
