Briefly explain why customizing your strategy is motivational. Develop three strategies that you propose Hometown Cars will use to build leaders in the future.

Topic: Week 10 Assignment

Scenario
Hometown Cars has suffered challenges over the last several months since the previous general manager left the organization. Because the company did not have a succession plan in place, the sales manager, service manager, and parts manager attempted to run the organization on their own, without real leadership and without feeling fully empowered to make decisions. As a result, sales have been down company-wide, and there have been several personnel issues surrounding lack of motivation. As the new general manager, you have been developing a motivational game plan for Hometown Cars that includes investing in your team, giving feedback and setting goals, and using competition and rewards in order to motivate your employees.

Task
Complete your Motivational Game Plan and submit it to the CEO of Hometown Cars for review. The final game plan brings together the parts you previously developed and identifies a strategy for using motivation to build leaders at Hometown Cars.
