Dysfunction:
A seasoned manager at Company XYZ faces challenges while leading a cross-functional team in Abu Dhabi. The team comprises a financial expert, a marketing specialist, and an Operations Coach with a strong personality that disrupts team harmony.
Despite employing the SMART goal methodology, the manager struggles with the Operations Coach's overpowering presence and communication barriers. This leads to internal conflicts and ineffective problem-solving, prompting the manager to seek external guidance to realign and rejuvenate the team.

Transforming Leadership: Navigating Team Dynamics
Scenario Overview
The Dual Scenario Approach
Function:
Post consultation with a mentor, the manager revises his leadership approach, emphasizing effective SMART goal setting tailored to each team member. His new strategy of engaging the team through open-ended, collaborative questions cultivates a more inclusive environment, especially with the Operations Coach.
This shift enhances the integration of diverse skills within the team, aligns individual and project goals, and fosters professional growth. The result is a successful expansion into Abu Dhabi, driven by the manager's adaptive leadership and strategic, emotionally intelligent approach.
Our Case Studies uniquely present both dysfunctional and functional scenarios, as seen in Company XYZ. The 'Dysfunction' stage depicts the current challenges, while the 'Function' stage illustrates the resolution of these issues.
Our Approach:
a brief overview
-
Realistic Modelling: We begin by closely examining the current situation within your company, creating a realistic model of the challenges faced. This involves using fictional characters to represent real individuals affected by these challenges, ensuring anonymity and indirect addressing of issues.
-
Self-Evaluation and Reflection: Participants engage in deep self-evaluation, recognising traits in characters like 'John' or 'Muhammad the Operations Coach' that mirror their own behaviours. This realisation prompts a critical reflection on their leadership styles and their impact on team dynamics and project outcomes.
-
Resolution and Roadmap: The functional scenario of the Case Study demonstrates practical solutions and altered approaches to resolving workplace issues. Participants are guided through a journey of discovery, learning how to adapt their leadership styles effectively. This section of the Case Study provides a clear roadmap for development, inspiring participants to embark on a path towards successful leadership and team cohesion.
Our Case Studies are more than just narratives; they are catalysts for change, offering a blend of realism, reflection, and actionable strategies for organisational growth and personal development.
