3.1 Leadership
Jose could use Profit maximization of Whittington’s model to develop skills of employees by training them to inculcate the culture of allowing employees to work from home or have the choice to work in a warehouse. Duties in the warehouse sometimes depend with the season. For instance, when the demand for the products is high, the warehouse would be active (Wolf & Troxler, 2016). This time would be defined with many employees contact to increase the efficiency at the warehouse. However, a season that warehouses are not in use would cost infective to the company as it would be able to system the high number of employees it had during the high peak of services. This implies that Profit maximization of Whittington’s model would be effective in supporting a gig economy that would aid the company to reduce its cost on the human capital.
3.2 SHRM
Profit maximization of Whittington’s model operates on four generic approaches, which include evolutionary, processual, systematic, and classical. The evolutionary approach would allow the company to understand that the environmental changes are rapid to be predicted meaning that long term planning on a company might be not effective in minimizing profits. The classical approach would as well be significant in analyzing, planning, and issuing a command to employees on the measures that would hasten the achievement of goals at the warehouse. Moreover, the processual and systematic approaches would aid in playing with the local rules and staying close to understand the flow of success (Whittington, 2017).
3.3 Model Chosen
The model fits Jose platform of designing the developing warehouse. The modern technological development will allow employees at the warehouse to work only when they are needed. This implies that the warehouse would be operating on a contract according to Jose’s thinking of a grey or gig economy. The amount that the company would put in training the graduates would as well be an amount saved because the company can outsource professional freelancers who will operate from any part of the world and deliver services required (Whittington, 2017).
Conclusion
The world is fast developing with new models being effective in managing people in a company. The transformation of the world economy is an evident sign that the economy of countries, as well as companies, have been changing. The transform has been gearing towards creating the best avenues of thriving. Combination of Profit maximization of Whittington’s model and Transformational leadership model has been effective in the modern era compelling much organization to apply the models in operation. The labor market as also been changing to a gig economy where the freelancing is taking part in many companies of the world. This concept puts the grey economy concept in the line of thought because of its significance in cost reduction and profit maximization.
Recommendation
Profit maximization of Whittington’s model will be significant to Jose in managing employees at the warehouse. For instance, he can only employ people when the need arises. Besides, only interested professionals would accept the terms given by the company before commencing the work. This will allow the company to manage the cost of hiring and scrutinize the skills they would want.
Transformational leadership model would be significant in motivating the already chosen professional to deliver quality work. In freelancing, an employee would as well give a quality product with encouragement from the client of the company.
