Case 1

Mr Santos was a school administration. One day he was talking to

the teachers in a meeting about management. He said, among other
thing “One does not to have good qualities as a leader but he
has to appear to have them. Maintain a social distance from a
distance from employees, so they can judge you from a distance
rather than from a close range. What is the effect of his
behaviour towards leadership upon employee morale?

About his first sentence that talks about a leader having good
qualities even if they didn’t have it, an example of this is as
a leader you have to be strong for your employees. So that you
will be respected and you will be loved because if now then they
will show no mercy to you and you will be somewhat don’t have
the power to control them. In the second sentence, he might have
this experienced in his past about being judged by his co
employees before, that is why he is acting this way because he
didn’t want that it will happen again. He did not want them to
feel those things that he had experienced. So if they will judge
you, you will not hurt that much because or your closeness. And
this kind of behaviour of Mr Santos affects the teachers to open
up their minds about issues like this, they will become more
aware.

Case 2

A high school principal has found after investigate that Julio,

a student in forth year, was guilty of tearing out papers of a
library reference book. When asked why he did it, he said: “I
was behind in my work. I wanted to review my examinations.” Give
me an example of a personal experience in which one leads to
another.

It is about choices, Julio’s choice is to tear down those

references for him to review because he is behind his work. He
is now pressured and his not in his right mind if only he did
his work on time, there is no such result as tearing down those
pages. One of my personal experiences is that when it comes to
assignments and I did not have enough time to finish it because

of other requirements I ended up just copying this assignment

from my classmates. Instead of making my own assignment I will
copy others because what choice do I have if the deadline is
second period and I did not have time to research so I choose to
copy this assignment from my classmates or from the internet.
Sometimes we can do things that are beyond our limits.

Case 3

A district supervisor used to get some of his teachers together

to play mah-jong on Sunday afternoon or evening. When asked by
another district supervisor why he did this, he said that these
teacher like other human beings recreation. How do you explain
the outward motivation of the supervisor from the point of view
of value system?

The supervisor only wants to see his teachers happy together by

playing mah-jong. The word recreation here is described as
enjoying yourself while you are not working. It is the
supervisors’ choice because he is a free person and has the
right to choose, he chooses to play mahjong in their free time,
and the teachers are having fun playing. He wanted that his
teachers are having fun and that is his one and only motive. It
is their break from being a teacher, they needed a life, and
they sometimes need to be released from their chains and being
locked up as a teacher, they have their own freedom to have fun
and play. Because in the first place it is not bad to let the
teachers have their own kind of little fun.
