Case Study: Exercising Delegation for a School Open Day Project
Background:
A large, prestigious private school is preparing for its annual Open Day for prospective parents. The school has a reputation for excellence in academics, extracurricular activities, and community involvement. The Open Day is a critical event for the school, as it provides an opportunity to showcase its strengths to potential new families. The school's Principal is responsible for the overall management of the event but needs to delegate responsibilities to his VPs and senior teachers to ensure a successful Open Day.
Challenge:
The school's Principal needs to delegate key responsibilities to his VPs and senior teachers while balancing the need for the event to showcase the school's strengths with the need to develop his staff's capabilities.
Complication:
One of the senior teachers, Mr. Smith, has been tasked with leading the public speaking and marketing team for the Open Day. Mr. Smith is an expert in public speaking and marketing and has a strong track record of delivering successful presentations and events in the past. However, Mr. Smith is not known for being a strong team player, and there have been concerns from other staff members that he may be difficult to work with.
