QUESTION $1(20$ Marks$)$

Refer to the statement from the article:

$$How can you effectively communicate with team members who are spread all over the world? In an ordinary

office environment, it$$s as easy as just walking down the hall, but now you$$re separated by miles and oceans

and while digital means of communication are useful in this regard, they$$re far from perfect. Issues can arise

because someone$$s tone was misread via a text exchange, and employees might start to feel isolated from

their managers and teammates.$$

Discuss Tall and Flat Management structures and select ONE $(1)$ structure you believe a manager can use if

he$/$she encounters remote working challenges as referred to in the statement above. Provide FIVE $(5)$

benefits of the structure you selected.

adapted when selling to the global market.

QUESTION $3(20$ Marks$)$

Refer to the statement from the article:

$$When you truly know your co$-$workers, including their communication style, sense of humour, and schedule,

you can work with them much better. By developing these relationships, you$$ll come to understand these

people who you$$re virtually working alongside. This also applies to supervisors and the employees they

manage. Building and maintaining relationships with your staff through constant communication allows you

to determine how your employees work and the best method for inspiring them.$$

Explain clearly each of the THREE $(3)$ managerial skills. Analyse which skill will be used by the manager to

build and maintain relationships with the staff working remotely. Provide examples in your answer.
