Leadership Theories and Practices

Upon a thorough review of Mayer’s decision and underlying reasons for this major cultural shift at Yahoo, as well as a review of the existing scholarly research on situational leadership as it has been applied to telecommuting, develop a written model of situational leadership she could have used instead  of banning the practice to predict the result. Compare this outcome with Mayer’s desired results and current perception of the outcome of her decision back in 2013.

Based on your analysis and findings, do you believe a situational leadership approach could have addressed her concerns with telecommuting at Yahoo? Why or why not?
