You have emerged as the leader of your business finance group project in class. Your group has been working together for five weeks on the major part of the project, the in-class group presentation.
 
  One group member has missed quite a few group meetings lately and is minimally contributing to the ideas and final product for the in-class presentation. This group member is a junior in finance with a minor in communications and stated that she is an expert in PowerPoint and multimedia presentations. Based on SLII, which leadership style should you exhibit?
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

Students could answer supporting or coaching depending upon how they interpret the scenario. Directing and delegating are not acceptable answers. The group member displays low commitment (missed meetings, minimal contribution) but at least some competence is presumed because of her major in finance and minor in communications. Some might interpret this as moderate to high competence and would select supporting style; others might interpret this as some competence, thus coaching style is appropriate. Students should describe the development level explicitly, using levels of competence and commitment that match the appropriate style as they answer this question.

Answer to Question 2

False
