INTRODUCTION
The case study of ABC Bank revolves around Martin Sithole, an experienced leader recently
promoted to an executive role due to his strong performance and leadership abilities.
Tasked with leading a significant merger, Martin faces multiple challenges involving
leadership dynamics, organizational restructuring, stress management, and diversity
inclusion. While confident in his approach to the merger, Martin overlooks the importance of
team collaboration and inclusivity, leading to challenges within his team. Additionally, the
bank’s Human Resources Wellness Division has been tasked with managing stress
associated with the merger, and addressing diversity issues, including the inclusion of a new
employee with a disability and fostering gender equality within the team. This assignment
explores key leadership theories, the principles of horizontal organizational design, coping
strategies for managing stress, and individual approaches to fostering diversity. It aims to
provide critical insights and practical solutions for addressing these multifaceted challenges
at ABC Bank.
QUESTION 1
1.1 Modern Leadership Theory Applied by Martin Sithole
The modern leadership theory applied by Martin Sithole is Transactional Leadership.
Transactional leadership focuses on clear structures where rewards and punishments are
used to achieve compliance from subordinates. In this model, leaders set specific goals,
monitor progress, and provide feedback based on performance outcomes. Leaders motivate
followers by rewarding them for meeting objectives and correcting them when they deviate
from expected results. Martin's approach to the merger is largely transactional, as he
focuses on training subordinates in standard procedures and dictating the vision without
engaging or valuing their input.
1.2 Ethical and Unethical Characteristics of Transactional Leadership in the Case
Study
Ethical Characteristics:
1. Clear Expectations: Martin provided his subordinates with structured training on the
standard operating procedures related to mergers. This shows a clear setting of
expectations, which is an ethical trait of transactional leadership.
