Unit 4 Assignment
1. How would creating a new position between the CEO and the location managers help the business to grow?
I believe that by creating a new position between the CEO and the location manager will help the business grow because it can indeed help Dalman with a little extra time to deal with other aspects of the business. Since he is the only one doing everything in the business, adding new levels of management can help keep the business organized by assigning different managers to do the things Dalman would normally be doing himself.
2. Is promoting an existing manager the best option to fill this position? If not, what is an alternative source to fill the position?
I think that by promoting a manager would be a great decision since the manager will have already knowledge of how sandwich Blitz operates. Since there are two managers already, promoting one of the managers, I believe that it would be a great assets to help with the company’s organization.
3. Who within the company should make these decisions?
I believe that all the decision on hiring or promoting managers or associates should be made By Dalman and Lei. I believe this because since they are the business owners, I think they are the ones who should make those decisions. I do think Dalman more than Lei because his position is the one that will be branched out and any mistakes in the choice of who will be filling these duties could indeed end up causing more work for Dalman. 4. List the levels of authority (management) that Sandwich Blitz, Inc. would have if the new position is created.
I believe that it would follow like this.
CEO
Middle Managers
Location Managers
