Multifit Gym Plc Business profile
Multifit Gym plc (MFG Plc) was a successful fitness business with 20 gyms that were
established in the 1990s. The business employed 300 people within its gyms and had 15
head office employees. The manager’s leadership style in MF Gym plc was Laissez-faire as
“employees liked the laid-back management style and found it empowering,” which suggests
that the employees had the authority or power to do their job as they wanted.
Add Advantages and disadvantages of leadership style
Employees at MG Plc were satisfied because they had flexible working opportunities, such
as working from home and scheduling their own online lessons. ” The managers trusted
their employees to be professional and work their contractual hours each week." This shows
the positive culture in MF Gym Plc as trustworthy in the workplace, which makes the working
environment effective and efficient, but the managers thought “the employees did not need a
lot of monitoring,” which indicates that managers were not using functions such as
monitoring, delegating, and controlling employees in MF Gyms plc.
However, the managers organised weekly team meetings to discuss the performance of the
gym. The employees were working on a democratic leadership style as they were
encouraged to make suggestions to make business improvements such as adding new
classes or facilities which made them feel empowered and have positive working
relationships which resulted in a better-quality circle in MF Gym plc.
However, there was a lack of communication between each hierarchy of MF Gym plc as the
senior manager was not engaged with the employees to do their tasks. There were a few
issues in Multifit Gym Plc which created obstacles for MF Gym plc “to become one of the
most efficient gym operators in the country “which are indicated below.
1. Missed profits
2. Did not conduct staff appraisals
3. Lack of training (often led to low customer satisfaction rates and a lack of available
skilled staff)
4. Increased staff turnover
5. No system to monitor the success of new activities or to budget for them.
6. No communication between the management and employees.
At the end of 2022, rumours circulated that MF Gyms plc was going to be a takeover by the
UK’s leading gym brand “Local Gym Plc” which had over 130 gyms. The enlarged business
usually has authority over smaller businesses, which demonstrates that the Local Gym plc
managing director will have authority over Multifit Gym plc. In June 2021 Multifit Gym plc and
Local gym plc officially merged.
