PART 4: Discussion of alternatives
As it could be seen from the case study, there were various issues associated with the
leadership context and the leadership skills possessed by John, the project manager, did not even
reflect on how the business goals and o objectives could be achieved. There were lack of
motivation skills and even the project manager was not much adjustable to the situations, due to
which, he was more concerned with joking around and even showing his attitude of a macho
manager, rather than acting as a role model to the team members during the project management.
Due to this, an inappropriate culture was formed and the values and beliefs were not managed
properly, which further resulted in affecting the project and deteriorating the project outcomes as
usual too (Georgalis et al. 2015). The project team members of XRS should consult with the
higher management and discuss about the lack of support and help provided by the project
manager and even make them aware of the lack of managerial experience and proper leadership
skills and behaviours possessed by John, the project manager.
One of the major effective ways of resolving these kinds of issues could be the
identification of managerial and leadership development needs and then arranging the most
suitable training programs to enhance their skills and knowledge about how to manage the
human resources properly during the project management. The project manager should follow a
democratic leadership style rather than an autocratic leadership style of leadership to ensure that
the opinions and responses of the project team members are considered and they are
communicated with consistently for ensuring successful project management (Küng 2013). The
task allocation and promoting a positive culture would be possible with the sharing and exchange
of information through proper communication, which could also boost the morale of employees
