Case :Following your graduation from the School of Business, Wisconsin International University College, Ghana, you are appointed to be the manager of a large chain restaurant, located in Osu, Accra, in which you have worked in various roles while you were a student. You know the members of your well-knit, customer-oriented team well. The team, in fact, likes to say that they are a family who can be relied upon to take care of each other. Recently, the team voluntarily rearranged their schedules to allow Gabby, one of the servers, shifts which enables him to take care of his mother, who has recently become ill. To reinforce the importance of teamwork, the staff pools all gratuities, which are distributed biweekly in accordance to an agreed-upon formula for each position. Two months into your new role you notice that the amount of the gratuities has been falling despite the fact the restaurant has been doing well: both food and beverage revenues are up.
