CASE STUDY I
at the Seasons Inn…...
Orlando is the bar supervisor. Lets listen to his employees talking
about THE SEASON’S INN MANAGEMENT during their break:
Employee 1: “ The more you do around here, the more they want you
to do. I filled in for Cindy twice this week, and I have been asked to do
this once again. Which mean I need to reschedule my plan for the
evening. But they don’t care about that. They just want to know how
soon I can be here!!”
Employee 2: “ Yeah, and the gossip is that they may be cutting
overtime for us, probably to pay for the fancy bar equipment - the stuff
which we will never use because no one has the time to show us how
to use it!! If they would have asked me I would have suggested they
hire a part time waiter for the busy periods with the same money.”
CASE STUDY I
at the Seasons Inn…...
Employee 3: “ Well I'm getting sick of asking guests how to make
drinks. If they’d give me some time to beef up my skills, it would pay
off for everybody.”
Employee 4: “ they keep telling me that they are going to find some
free time for you, but…”
Employee 1: “ Well here comes Orlando to crack the whip. Guess we’d
better get back to work.”

Personality types

account different personality types:
– Task-oriented;

– Interaction-oriented.
Personality types
Task-oriented.
– The motivation for doing the work is the
work itself.
Self-oriented.
– The work is a means to an end which is
the achievement of individual goals - e.g.
to get rich, to play tennis, to travel etc.;
Interaction-oriented
– The principal motivation is the presence
and actions of co-workers. People go to

Motivation balance
• Individual motivations are made up of elements
of each class.
• The balance can change depending on personal
circumstances and external events.
• However, people are not just motivated by
personal factors but also by being part of a
group and culture.
• People go to work because they are motivated by
the people that they work with.
Managing Teams
Group interaction is a key determinant
Team work.
Flexibility in group composition is limited
as we have less choices with whom we
work
– Managers must do the best they can with available people.
Factors influencing Team Work
• Team composition.
• Team cohesiveness.
• Team communications.
• Team organisation.
Team Composition Group composed of members who share the
same motivation can be problematic
– Task-oriented - everyone wants to do their own
thing;
– Self-oriented - everyone wants to be the boss;
– Interaction-oriented - too much chatting, not
enough work.
• An effective group has a balance of all types.
• Interaction-oriented people are very important
as they can detect and defuse tensions
that arise.
Team communication
• Good communication is essential for
effective group working.
• Information must be exchanged with
every team member involved.
• Good communication also strengthens
Team Spirit as it promotes
understanding.

TEAM WORK is the willingness people have to work
with others towards common goals
The Story about the Tiny Frogs...
The Goal was to reach the top of a very high tower
A big crowd was
gathered around the
tower to see the race
and cheer on the
contestants…..
Honestly: No one in the crowd really believed
that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the
tower.
You heard statements such as “Oh, Way too
Difficult.!!
“They will never make it to the top”
“Not a chance that they will succeed. The
tower is too high.!!
The tiny frogs began collapsing One by One
…Except for those who in a fresh tempo were
climbing higher and higher…

“They will never make it to the top”
“Not a chance that they will succeed. The tower is too high.!!
The tiny frogs began collapsing One by One …Except for those
who in a fresh tempo were climbing higher and higher…
The crowd continued to yell “It is too difficult!!! No one will
make it!” More tiny frogs got tired and gave up…BUT ONE
continued higher and higher and higher…..
This one wouldn’t give up! At the end everyone else had given
up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog
who after a big effort was the only one who reached the top!
THEN all the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to
Know how this one frog managed to do it? A contestant asked
the tiny frog how the one who succeeded had found the strength
to reach the goal? It turned out….That the Winner was
DEAF!!!!
THE WISDOM OF THIS STORY IS:
Never listen to other people’s tendencies to be NEGATIVE or
PESSIMISTIC …….cause they take your most wonderful
dreams and wishes away from you. The ones you have in
your heart! Always think of the power words have. Because
everything you hear and read will affect your actions!
Therefore: ALWAYS be….POSITIVE! And above all: Be
DEAF when people tell YOU that YOU cannot fulfil YOUR
Dreams!
Always think: I can do this! Pass this message on to 5 “tiny
frogs” you care about.
GIVE THEM SOME MOTIVATION!!
