A Tale of Three Cases: OB/HR Cases Developed After Attending a 2017 OBTC Workshop

This workshop will present three OB/HR cases that were initiated by the authors during a case writing workshop led by Jack Brittain at the 2017 OBTC. The first case involves selection and job search related issues when a candidate is overqualified for the position. The second case focuses on the transformational and LMX leadership qualities of an individual who also occasionally engages in abusive supervision. The third case focus culture at a small company with a start-up mentality. The third case is also useful for discussing sexual harassment and is particularly timely given the #MeToo movement.
