Question 6 (1 point) Dealing with Steve As you settle in, you notice that while quite a few employees grumble about their jobs, there is only one person who seems to dislike you as the new manager. Steve has worked at Sunset Dockside Grille for almost 10 years. He is an excellent server and has the most knowledge about the operations of the restaurant, flow of the crowds, and menu items. Jacklyn tells you that in the past, Steve was the best leader for new restaurant initiatives and an excellent role model for new employees. He avoids you when he can and you've heard him remark that he should be the restaurant manager, not you. Decision Point: What Should You Do about Steve?

a Schedule a meeting with Steve to clear the air. Explain to him your qualifications as manager in contrast to his and what he lacks. Encourage him to be a leader with the waitstaff and use his experience and knowledge of the industry to help you train new employees.
b Call the owners and ask them what to do. After all, they hired you, so they must have thought long-term employees like Steve would work well with you. Maybe they can talk to him to smooth over the relationship.
c To make sure you have a written record for HR purposes and to address the situation quickly, send Steve this email: "Steve, it has come to my attention that you have been avoiding me. Furthermore, you've been showing a bad attitude. I would like you to review the policies and procedures in your employee handbook and correct your behavior immediately. If you have questions about me, please schedule a meeting with me and we can discuss them. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter"
