Explanation of Solution

Given Information: Carly Peters is the director of a creative department in the advertising agency. There are four accounts teams helping her out and each team has a different view on Carly.

LMX theory focuses on how exchanges between leaders and followers are. Carly should obtain a good leadership with all team members rather than Jack only. Every member should feel they’re in the in group rather than out of the group. Negativity and inequality should not be faced by any team. Trust and respect for each other should be there. Carly should not be biased but unbiased.
