Page 79 - Stakis Consolidated Teaching Note

Using Argenti's model some interesting discussion points

should arise. Not the least of which will be the tightness

and loyalty of the group under Michels compared to that
under Andros. Likewise. the roles of Sir Reo and Sir Lewis

are likely to point to the latter providing a mentorship of

exceptional quality.

Care must be taken when assessing the performance of

the key players in this case. A thumb nail sketch is shown

in figure 12.
