Summary
After
signing a plea deal to spare his colleagues at Pearson Specter Litt, Mike will
be confronted with the harsh realities of prison life as he starts his two-year
sentence. Meanwhile, the once bustling Pearson Specter Litt offices are a ghost
town – the partners have defected, leaving Harvey, Jessica, Louis, Donna and
Rachel to pick up the pieces. But the firm’s troubles are far from over and
they will have to deal with the fallout from Mike's crime before they can even
begin to rebuild.

Application of OB Concept: Situational Flexibility
Appropriate
leadership behavior should be dependent of three main things: leader, followers
and situation. Jessica, as the leader and the managing partner, needs to act
quickly if she wants to save the firm. Because she only has a few employees
left in the firm, she must properly designate tasks, making sure that everybody
does their part correctly. Also, she has to see to it that everybody gets along
well with one another so they can work as team. With the firm’s current
situation, Jessica has upped her game. She wants to be fully aware of all the
problems at hand, the possible solutions to these, and the firm’s remaining
resources to spend.
Reflection
The
way you lead your subordinates cannot be the same all the time. Sometimes, you
have to deviate from the norm or the standards when the situation calls for it.
Being a leader means that you have to be flexible to any circumstances that
your organization might face. There is no one specific rule on how you should
behave as a leader. One kind of leadership behavior may work for an
organization facing this specific dilemma, but may not for another organization
or another problem. In the end, leaders should be able to adapt quickly to any situation
to effectively manage an organization.
