Alicia's Proposed Issue Solutions

Alicia Smithfield is familiar with all of the contributors (e.g., Weber, Gilbreath, Taylor, among others)to the management theory you have read about this week. She has decided to hire six (6) of those contributors to management theory from the week's readings as consultants. (We shall now refer to those contributors(e.g., Weber, Gilbreath, Taylor, among the others) in this week's readings as "consultants.")

Each of the six (6) consultants selected will be assigned to solve only one of the six (6) issues listed above. Alicia's problem is that she is unclear as to which of the six (6) contributors selected from the week's reading to be her consultants are best matched to solve each of the six (6) specific issues listed above.

Your Task for Your Initial Post

You are to answer four (4) of the above-mentioned six (6) issues identified by Alicia Smithfield. Specifically, she has asked you to recommend a consultant to solve four of the six issues confronting her. You have been requested to explain to Alicia why you selected the four consultants you chose to solve each of the four selected issues. Each consultant will solve one of the four issues you identified that particular consultant to address. You must explain the major contribution/idea of the consultant selected and how that contribution/idea applies to the specific issue you have recommended that the consultant solve. You must identify the school of thought that each consultant represents.
