When these traits did not surface, Jing-Mei began to realize she did not have these traits and started to feel internally inferior. She slowly started to resent her mother’s continual control over her decisions and went in a different direction than her mother wanted her too. In Amy Tan’s short story, “Two Kinds”, the dialogue Tan includes within Jing-Mei’s flashback demonstrates that conflict and resentment can occur when not allowing your child to take his/her own path. In the beginning of the flashback, Jing-Mei’s mother is shown to be trying to control and dominate her daughter’s life. When she moved away from China, Jing-Mei’s mother had a vision that in America, you could be anything that you wanted to be.

Case Study 4.1 Diana’s disappointment: The promotion stumbling block Question 1 These are the various factors that I believe led to Diana not being promoted: · Self –awareness: When Diana had not been promoted the first time, she was told by her supervisor that she needed to work on her people skills. During another visit from her supervisor, it was suggested that Diana try to be friendlier and become more approachable to the employees. At that point, Diana should have realized that this is a weakness for her and that her lack of people skills might be the cause of the high turnover in staff she has been experiencing. Since Diana did not take her supervisor’s advice, it would appear to her superiors that she has no intention of changing from her current style of managing; this would cause some concern as Diana would be training new managers. With Diana’s history of poor people skills and large turnover in staff at her own restaurant, her superiors would not want Diana in charge of training the new managers.

I’ve witnessed that if they can fit in with the residents, it would make the job easier for them. They are more than likely to get by with just about anything without the resident going back and reporting it to management. You become careless to your job duties; and that’s exactly what happened with
Because Diana is not that self aware she not only ignored the crucial advice that was given to her to succeed, she rationalized the real reason of her been passed up for the first promotion as simply corporate politics.. Not acting on this advice shows her leadership that she is not that ready for change within herself and to grow to the maturity level required for the multi unit management job. Diana’s self management of her emotions was also very subpar. This is evident in how she perceived of her staff and not caring for turnover and of employees not wishing to work under her management style. She was always dismissing advice under her own “justified” guise that her bottom line financial results ensured her continued success and entitlement for further advancement. Also, bursting out into tears during her follow-up interview and leaving rather than soliciting feedback as to why she did not receive the promotion was a clear lack of her own emotional management.
