    ACCA · Question 18 · Syllabus D: Leadership and management

    CityWater, a public utility, recently hired a new operations director. This director believes that highly committed employees lead to high productivity. She works hard to align the personal goals of her staff with the organization's goals, resulting in a highly motivated team that consistently exceeds production targets.

    Where would this director be placed on Blake and Mouton's Managerial Grid?

    Answer options:

    A.

    1,1 - Impoverished Management

    B.

    1,9 - Country Club Management

    C.

    9,1 - Task Management

    D.

    9,9 - Team Management

    How to approach this question

    Evaluate the director's concern for people (highly committed employees) and concern for production (exceeds targets). Both are high.

    Full Answer

    D.9,9 - Team Management✓ Correct
    Blake and Mouton's Managerial Grid plots Concern for Production (x-axis) against Concern for People (y-axis). A 9,9 style (Team Management) indicates a high concern for both, where work is accomplished by committed people with a 'common stake' in the organization's purpose.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing the coordinates. Remember it is usually (Production, People). 9,9 is high on both.
