Based on the case study, it appears Sonja has a great boss. However, what are some more (at least 2) attributes you would add to the characteristics she described to make her boss even more fitting for you specifically. Justify your reply by sharing a personal experience you've been in (whether it be good or bad). Your posts should be a minimum of 100 words long.
A. There are no response requirements for this week. However, students are encouraged to carry on the conversation beyond just one initial post. Historically, students who participate in the discussion board more than others, maximize their learning experience. A good example would be empathizing with a student who shared a similar personal experience as you
CASE STUDY
Sonja and Alice were discussing their supervisors."Mine is good," said Sonja. "How is yours?"
"A dork," Alice replied. "Why?" asked Sonja. "Well," Alice paused to collect her thoughts. "He is rarely complimentary to anyone in our working group. He takes most of the credit for successful projects but rarely assumes responsibility for less than quality outcomes. I feel as if my job skills are getting stale. I've been quietly looking for another job, but the present economy is not helping. What makes your boss so good?""That is easy to answer," Sonja began. Before she could continue, her phone chirped. "Gotta go," she said. "We'll finish this conversation later."How do you think Sonja will describe her boss?
CASE STUDY RESOLUTION
The day passed quickly, so Sonja sent Alice the following message using her per-sonal e-mail account and sending it to Alice's home account. To finish our conversation from this morning, my supervisor tries to empower and motivate us at every opportunity. Like yours, he is male but, unlike yours, does not have problems with female employees. He is complimentary and allows us to structure our days and how we approach special projects. We set our most of our performance goals jointly with him. He has a great reputation, and I feel lucky to be working for him. Since you are not having good luck finding a new job, send me your resume. I'll forward it to my boss. You never know what may come of it. Alice's resume was in her computer inbox when Sonja arrived for work.
