Answer to Question 1

Answer: The following principles of delegation are evident: begin with the end in mind (task force was formed to provide strengths and weaknesses for three suggestions to address the concerns); delegate completely (manager is not going to monitor progress of the task force); work within the organizational structure (manager has delegated the assignment to the lowest relevant organizational level; focus accountability on results (manager is avoiding monitoring the progress of the task force and requests that the task force provide three specific suggestions by a specified time). The following principles of delegation may be lacking: allow participation in the delegation of assignment (manager established task force without involving the sales staff); establish parity between authority and responsibility (the case does not provide enough information to determine if this principle was used; while the manager delegated the responsibility to the task force to provide the strengths and weaknesses for three suggestions, he did not provide the authority to implement the suggestions); provide adequate support for delegated tasks (the case does not provide enough information to determine if this principle was used); delegate consistently (the nature of this assignment neither supports nor negates consistencythe facts indicate this is a one-time assignment); avoid upward delegation (the case does not provide enough information to determine if this principle was used); clarify consequences (the case does not provide any information related to consequences; no repercussions are indicated if the task force does not provide three specific suggestions by July 30).
