    The document discusses Steph Korey's leadership style at Away and alternatives that may have been more appropriate. It analyzes Korey's style as self-preserving, undemocratic, involving micro-management and being overly sensitive and domineering. It led to employee unfulfillment and a 90% drop in revenue. More democratic and participative styles that allow employee input and delegation could have better supported Away's success and employee happiness.

    KOREY’S LEADERSHIP TECHNIQUE

    • SELF-PRESERVATION- KOREY ACTED LIKE


    SHE WAS EVERYTHING IN AWAY WITH DECISION MAKING AND
    BLAMES EVERYONE BUT HERSELF WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.
    SHE WAS DIPLOMATIC IN THE BULK OF WHAT SHE DID AS THE
    WHO KNOW-IT-ALL, EVEN AT THE
    COST OF OTHER’S HAPPINESS.
    SHE DID EVERYTHING TO MAKE
    YOU WORK, REGARDLESS OF YOUR
    OTHER ENGAGEMENT AS AN
    INDIVIDUAL.
    KOREY’S LEADERSHIP TECHNIQUE

    • UNDEMOCRATIC- STEPH KOREY IS NOT


    DEMOCRATIC AND THAT PLACES HER AS AN
    AUTOCRATARIAN BEING THE SOLE-DECISION MAKER, ALSO
    KNOWN AS DICTATORSHIP. SHE GO BY THE “ITS MY WAY OR
    THE WAY”, WITH STRONG INSTRUCTIONS SET TO BE
    FOLLOWED WITHOUT A SAY. THIS IS NOT ONLY TOO BRUTAL
    FOR YOUR EVERY-DAY KIND OF
    WORK-PLACE WHERE MAINTAINING
    EMPLOYEE HAPPINESS IS KEY BUT
    ALSO GIVES NO PARTICIPATION IN
    DECISION-MAKING. THE MILITARY IS
    A GOOD PLACE FOR LEADERSHIP.
    KOREY’S LEADERSHIP TECHNIQUE

    • MICRO-MANAGEMENT- HER
    LEADERSHIP WAS MARKED BY EXCESSIVE SUPERVISION
    AND CONTROL OF EMPLOYEES’ WORK AND PROCESSES, AS
    WELL AS A LIMITED DELEGATION OF DECISIONS TO STAFF.
    SHE PREFER TO COMPLETE WORK ON HER OWN WITHOUT
    ANY INPUT FROM HER TEAM OF EMPLOYEES MOST OF THE
    TIMES.
    THIS RESULTED IN THE UNFULFILL-
    MENT FELT BY THE AWAY TEAM AND
    IT HAD A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE
    OUTCOME OVERTIME.
    KOREY’S LEADERSHIP TECHNIQUE

    • OVERLY SENSITIVE- STEPH WAS EASILY


    BOTHERED, UPSET AT ALMOST EVERYTHING AND PICKS
    OFFENSE EASILY. SHE WAS OVER SENSITIVE TO CRITICISM
    WITH HER RESPONSES SEVERALLY TO EMPLOYEES. WHILE
    IT HAS ITS ADVANTAGES, SHE COULDN’T GET THE
    DIFFERENCE. SHE USED IT THOUGH TO ACHIEVE SO MUCH

    WITHIN THE FEW YEARS AWAY LUGGAGE EMERGED AS AN


    INNOVATIVE PRODUCT ACROSS
    THE USA. THIS SAW TO A 90%
    DROP IN REVENUE AND
    FURLOUGHED HALF OF ITS
    EMPLOYEES.
    KOREY’S LEADERSHIP TECHNIQUE

    • DOMINEERING LEADSHIP
    TECHNIQUE- ONCE KOREY SAW THAT TWO
    EMPLOYEES STILL HAD SOMETIME OFF SCHEDULED, SHE
    REPRIMANDED THEM AGAIN, PUBLICLY AND ON SLACK.
    SHE WAS ARROGANT AND BOSSY,
    LIKE A MILITARY DICTATOR WHO
    MICOMANAGES EVERYONE AT WORK.
    KOREY IS STRONG-WILLED AND OVER-
    BEARING. SHE ALWAYS WANT TO BE
    NOTICEABLE THAN OTHER
    EMPLOYEES.
