Marchionin's Cultural Failure
After reading the case study and also researching the results of Marchionne’s cultural changes it would be hard to offer recommendations based on any failure. History does prove that he was very successful in turning around the companies financial status. This can be proven by the fact that Chrysler was able to pay off their government loans six years early (Dickens, 2012).

Knowing this, if I was given the opportunity to offer him any suggestion, I would recomment that he exhibit more mentoring within the culture that he built. Making sure that employees are growing is an esstential part of the continued success of an entitiy. For instance, while he promoted within I am not sure he was taking the time to mentor these folks to be able

    Chrysler's Culture: A Case Study

    Marchionne transformed Chrysler’s culture from a hierarchy to a flatten organization and eliminated the bureaucracy (Taylor, 2010). He wanted to engaged employees on all levels and create a culture of teamwork. According to Muller (2011), Marchionne had twenty-five direct reports, and each one would report to him weekly and always available to discuss work . Marchionne understood that in order to transform Chrysler’s culture he had to invest time in his people and build relationships. As a result of his personal interest in his employees, Marchionne was able to increase production and build a positive internal and external culture.…

    The Harnswell Sewing Machine Company

    There is a huge need of organizational transformation in the HSMC and its CEO and founder, Mr. Harmswell, is currently not aware of this need. According to his own words (“if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”), he is not striving for constant improvement and does not act proactively. Rather than supporting his employees in thinking about how to improve their working environments, Mr. Harmswell relies on his past experiences. He even actively discourages his employees from “making waves” and uses fear as an instrument to paralyze the people in his organization (“What am I going to do with you if you keep coming up with these ridiculous ideas”). This indicates that he is rather supervising than leading his employees.…

    Good To Great Issues

    I believe one of the first things that would have to be done is addressing the issues at hand - individually and department wide. Leadership has to communicate clearly the values, mission, ethics, and expectations - without doing so, disruptive and destructive behaviors begin. Once the expectations have been communicated, officers at all levels have to be held to those expectations, and behaviors modified as needed through a graduated disciplinary process.…

    Nogo Railroad Case Study

    A team of college students were contracted to develop an organizational development plan for NoGo Railroad. The firm was experiencing low performance and low morale, along with a new Communication Manager who was unsure how to address the issues. The new Communication Manager paid for the student's services and expressed apprehension around having leadership "buy-in", which the students recommended as the first obstacle to address. The firm has traditionally recruited family members, rewarded for hours worked, and has archaic policies and an unbalanced union contract that cannot be renegotiated for two years. The team of local college students identified several systems that were adversely affected by the organization's current design and recommended a broad and sweeping initiative with a focus on building a performance-based culture. This work would include more frequent communication, employee satisfaction surveys, a performance management process, realistic career-pathing, training and development, and finally, future implementation of a job analysis and redesign effort.…

    How Organizational Behavior Will Make Me an Effective Manager.

    Upon taking role as a manager, I would particularly like to focus on developing relationships with my employees and helping their potential skills grow. This can be accomplished through mentoring and coaching, which is essential by assisting employees to learn and develop their skills. In addition, mentoring contributes to creating a sense of ‘membership' to new recruits. Research has shown that mentored employees performed better on the job and experienced more rapid career advancement, as well as higher job satisfaction. Since employees are able to receive constructive feedback from their manager, they have a better sense of where they are at in terms of progression. By establishing these kinds of relationships with employees, it will give them a better sense of competence and meaningfulness since they know that they have support from management. I want to maintain this kind of network with my employees so that they do not see me as just someone who cares about my own advancement. I think that it is vital to help employees grow in skill because it furthers not only the individual but the organization as well. Coaching them through…
