It is not unusual for organizations to have several people in leadership roles who participate in collaborative decision-making for the benefit of the entire organization. Leading teams of diverse individuals is a significant challenge, and negotiating individual strengths, weaknesses, and personalities can be difficult. Nonetheless, as managers, it is your responsibility to effectively lead teams through establishing expectations designed to motivate individuals, fostering critical decision-making skills, and improving communication and collaboration among teammates. For the assignments in Topics 4 and 5, as part of the management team at a successful, regional airline, Southwest Transit, you have been directed to form a team for a high-stakes, high-pressure project. Together, the management team will come to a consensus and a recommendation will be delivered to the director.

Begin by reading the attached "Southwest Transit Company Profile" and " Southwest Transit Team Member Profiles." In your assigned group, each CLC group member, will recommend a team of six people from the given Southwest Transit team member profiles, ensuring to provide an explanation for their choices. After reviewing the candidate recommendations from the other CLC group members, the CLC group as a unit will negotiate and agree upon a Southwest Transit team that will eventually be presented to the director.
