Just a month into her new role, she already felt like walking away from the job. licant ...s files Mary decided that the problem was resistance to change among staff members. She knew that a certain amount of resistance to a new manager was to be expected, but it seemed to her that everything she said or did was resented and resisted simply because it came from her. There was so much to do. Her area of responsibility had literally coasted for years under an apathetic manager. The magnitude of this problem was so large that she hardly knew where to begin. With so much to be done, she had begun to fix everything that required change rapidly as possible. A 310 As Mary related to her friend Sally Drake, a nurse manager in another facility. "I resurrected the dress code and enforced it. You have no idea what was being tolerated in the way of appearance. I put a stop to personal phone calls and the use of food and drink and reading material within public view. I've started to enforce existing policies on absenteeism and tardiness. Sally, I can't tell you how long these people have been allowed to wander in and out whenever they felt like it." project She continued, "And what do I get? A nearly complete lack of support except for a couple of older employees who let me know that they felt it was about time someone did something. I've told all the staff what was expected of them in no uncertain terms. I hold a staff meeting every week and I'm trying hard to convince them of the need to improve the level of professionalism in the place, but it seems like every order or instruction I deliver just generates more bitterness and resistance." Sally responded, "It sounds like you inherited a real mess. But are you sure you're not trying to do too much too quickly, giving orders and delivering mandates without trying to get people to accept your plan? Have you allowed them to give you their ideas and involved them in deciding what to do? B03 U5 nment 372 373 Mary waved dismissively. "Oh, I know all about that involvement stuff. Get employees to help decide what to do and how to do it and all that modern stuff that is in textbooks. I've never depended on employees to do my work for me, and as far as I'm concerned the buck stops here." How would you describe Mary Johnson's management style?
