You are a senior operations manager at Spokes of Hope Worldwide, a nonprofit organization that seeks to improve access to education by providing bicycles to students who need them. This week, you are participating in the organization′s yearly staff seminar. The goal of the seminar is to allow staff members from satellite offices to discuss their unique challenges and share their expertise. You have been selected to facilitate two workshops for a group of the organization′s new and aspiring managers. First, you will prepare materials for your workshops, including handouts and a video of your presentation. Then, after you return to your office, you will address a challenge that many modern organizations face today: working remotely. Through research and the use of decision-making tools, you will devise a plan to address this difficult issue. Directions It is the second day of the seminar, and you are scheduled to facilitate a workshop about tackling tough problems in business management. Because managers face tough problems on a daily basis, it’s vital for them to have a working knowledge of the components of these problems. Management theories provide another important set of tools to help them analyze and solve these problems. To prepare for your workshop, you have created a Scenario Discussion Guide containing desсrіptions of three problems that managers are likely to face and a series of questions to help your audience address each problem.
