It’s time to put on your coaching hat and offer your best guidance for the latest installment of The Leadership Development Round-Table Challenge.  This month’s vexing dilemma is being served up by Mary Jo Asmus of Aspire-CS.

In case you’re not familiar with this now three-month old series, there’s a regular cast of characters who rotate the responsibility to create and host a leadership development challenge. The regular members plus one monthly guest have 200-words or less to share their ideas on how to handle the situation. Readers have the opportunity to not only vote on which answer they believe works best, but they are encouraged to chime in and show us all the error of our ways! This is full contact blogging!

Our regular Round-Table members are indicated below, and thanks to Sharlyn Lauby, HR Bartender and some quick coding, you have the option of subscribing to all of the blogs with a single click.

OK, Mary Jo did all of the heavy lifting this month, so take a few moments to check out this short but very real case, share your ideas and cast your vote. Of course, I’m way above vote tampering, but I am from Chicago where “vote early and often” is a way of life. And I’m feeling pretty good about my response… .

Enjoy the challenge!
