Concept of organisational crises

Assignment Help Operation Management
Reference no: EM132231796

Assessment Description

In recent weeks, you have been exposed to a wide range of leadership styles. These have included transformational leadership, transactional leadership, servant leadership, authentic leadership, spiritual leadership, ethical leadership, remote leadership, and distributed leadership.

You have also been exposed to the concept of organisational crises. An organisational crisis can include extortion, hostile takeovers, product tampering, environmental spills, security breaches, executive kidnapping, product boycotts, work-related homicides, natural disasters, bribery, terrorist attacks, plant explosions, product recalls and, of course, economic and financial crises.

For this video presentation, you are required to select any organisational crisis of your choice (just one) and any leadership style of your choice (again, just one).

Then, record a 5-minute video presentation that contains the following components:

1. The likely causes of the organisational crisis.

2. The potential consequences of the crisis.

3. The advantages of the selected leadership style in solving that crisis.

4. The disadvantages of that leadership style in solving the crisis.

5. Three recommendations on how those disadvantages could be overcome.

To ensure success in your video presentation, take account of the following:

• Check the lighting quality so that your lecturer can clearly see you on screen.
• Test the audio quality so that your voice can be heard without difficulty.
• Record the video in a quiet room so that disturbances are minimised.
• Observe the screenshot so that your entire face can be seen.
• Talk to the camera rather than read from your notes.
• Get creative. It's not just what you say and how you say it; it's also how you present it.
• Be conscious of your body language. Is it helping you? Or is it hindering your message?
• Practice numerous times beforehand so that you become polished and confident.
• You do not need to submit any written material for this assessment; just the recording.

This subject is People, Culture and Contemporary Leadership. As you will see in the assessment outline there are many organisational crisis mentioned so you have to select any one and then by one leadership style you have to provide with the answer. The second doc attached is for understanding the questions. Remember as given in the marking rubric organisational crisis stands only for 10 marks wheres as leadership has 30 marks. So you have to prepare PP slides with some examples if appropriate , 3 or 4 academic references, 1 or 2 images where appropriate and notes to explain that slides in 5 minute video for both the copies . Remember that if you are using any crisis and then the leadership style they should reasonably appropriately relate to each other. In both copies the organisational crisis and leadership style should be different. My due date is of today 11:55 pm AEST so If you send me 1st copy with 4 to 5 hours it would be great and the 2nd copy if you send me tomorrow upto afternoon AEST that will be alright. Note: - please go through the marking rubric carefully once so that you can see which parts carries what marks that is extremely crucial.

Recommendations on how those disadvantages can be overcome (10 marks) The recommendations are either missing or are not convincing in terms of their ability to solve the crisis. The recommendations are fair but are only covered superficially and in a manager that is not engaging. The recommendations are solid and they are presented in a clear way. However, there is very little creativity. The recommendations are strong. Only minor improvements are needed in terms of presentation style. The recommendations are supported by research and are presented in a creative and compelling manner.
