OPTION #1: SUPERVISION STAFFING NOTES: THE CASE OF DEAN
Dean is 49 and has a brand-new sports car, a new look, new interests, and has turned to extracurricular activities—he has become less interested in being with Leah, his wife of 25 years, and suddenly more interested in going to night clubs to drink, dance, and gain the attention of younger women. After experiencing burn-out a few years ago and being laid-off from his job, Dean took time off to return to school. He earned a graduate degree and then had to begin his new career at a lower level and work his way up. Dean makes more money than he did in his previous career but does not yet have the same status he enjoyed on his old job. Retirement is still many years away, and he has plenty of time to succeed in his new role and even possibly become a partner in the firm.
