Clawson (2012) stated, “When we observe something, we immediately compare the events with our personal set of values, assumptions, beliefs, and expectations (VABEs) about the way the world is or should be. Any gap between what we observe and what we expect creates a problem. If no gap is noted, things are as they should be and we carry on without concern. VABEs are the beliefs we hold about the way the world should be or the way other people should behave. We can even have VABEs about our own behavior and consequently judge ourselves by them. These “shoulds” and “oughts” make up our valve system. When we say that a person should do this or should do that, we are expressing one of our VABEs (p.141)”. Our VABEs are developed early on from our family, friends, teachers, and other experiences in life. They affect our thinking which also affects of behavior.

Leaders have to know the best ways of approaching and resolving a problem. First, the leader needs to be able to figure out the problem. Once the problem is identified, then a course of action can be determined. In order to do this the leader must describe and collect information to correct the problem. This can be done by asking questions or just evaluating the situation. The next step would be to developing alternative actions or ways to handle to problem. The leader must decide what types of disciplinary actions will be given to the individuals involved, as a result, developing an agreement among those involve. However, the leader will still need to decide with alternatives are suitable for the actions of those involved. Then the leader must do what is indicated in the actions. Lastly, determine if the decision was the best one and follow up with all individuals involved.
