Lawn Pro Lawn Care Service Pontiac, Michigan |
John Brighton has been the regional manager of Lawn Pro's Southwestern Michigan region for the past three years. Before being promoted to this position, he was one of the company's most successful branch managers; now, as regional manager, he is responsible for the operation of all nine branches within his region. Generally, the region is doing well by contemporary standards. Nearly all of the branches generated "good numbers" throughout the just-completed fiscal year; in fact, the only one that didn't was the Pontiac Branch. The numbers from Pontiac were anything but good. John is certain that the poor performance of this branch is related to the management style of the Branch Manager.
