Questions Q The “Obscene Watermark” crisis is eliciting mixed reactions in Michael Scott’s company. Although the crisis is critical to the performance of the company, Michael Scott mishandles the crisis. This is evidenced by the mistakes he makes in the presence of the entire workforce.

In so doing, he further complicates the crisis.Q.2In their leadership, Scott and Krantz are tolerant, democratic, result-oriented, accommodative, purposeful, and committed.

Persistence is even more valuable when it is complemented by collaborative efforts between the parties involved.
On the other hand, the worst characteristic is personal self-sufficiency in times of crisis.Q.3Personally, I have faced a work crisis where workers were boycotting their duties and responsibilities to push for more organization-based benefits from the management. The worker-management platform of crisis resolution was violated, prompting me to remind my colleagues the formal process of filing complaints.
