As a result Dr Brownlow decided he needed to develop his senior staff by sending them on a training course, he chose Brenda Frame and Judith Smythe for this training. Richard believed the problems lie not with his style of management but by the lack of leadership and management by Brenda Frame and Judith Smythe. Brenda and Judith implemented there ideas but Richard and Fred Windows were negative about it saying that it was just a fad as they had been on these courses and knew more about management and leadership and gained nothing from the courses.

However, given the fact that both employees are new to their roles, the best case solution may involve a more senior management professional getting involved and setting a good example for both employees by resolving the sources of conflict and aligning them towards organizational goals.
