SIX SIMULATED STREET SITUATIONS, EACH PRESENTING A COMMON SUPERVISORY PROBLEM, ARE PRESENTED WITH A DISCUSSION PERIOD TAKING THE PLACE OF THE DENOUEMENT.
Abstract
THIS FILM AND DISCUSSION PROGRAM UTILIZES THE CASE STUDY APPROACH. NO SOLUTIONS ARE PRESENTED. RATHER, AT THE MOMENT OF DECISION FOR EACH PROBLEM, THE NARRATOR CHALLENGES THE VIEWER TO REACH HIS OWN SOLUTION. THE DISCUSSION LEADER CAN USE THE JUST-SHOWN SITUATION TO FACILITATE A DISCUSSION INTO THE 'WHO-WHAT-WHERE-WHENWHY-HOW'S' OF THE PROBLEM AND WHAT ALTERNATIVE COURSES MIGHT BE TAKEN TOWARD RESOLUTION. TOPICS COVERED INCLUDE ETHICS, INTEGRITY, THEFT, SLEEPING ON DUTY, VIOLATION OF DIRECT ORDERS, HARRASSMENT BY A SUBORDINATE, AND CHAINOF-COMMAND PRESSURES. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT)
