Executive Summary Ebrahim El Kalza’s internship at Matthews Management Consulting has taken a turn for the worse. After initially being rejected for the Abu Dhabi assignment, he found his way onto the team after inception, to assist with client interviews. However, being unprepared for the intensity of it all, has his head spinning. Despite exerting a great deal of effort, his work is constantly being criticized, and he can’t seem to get on the same page as his supervisor (Sherif Mahfouz), leaving him to wonder how he can salvage something positive during his remaining days in Abu Dhabi, and secure a job offer. Mahfouz is charged with growing the Middle Eastern business; his success is tied to the existing engagement, and he is somewhat dependent on El Kalza to support his efforts. At the heart of the problem is ineffective communication, which has led to interpersonal conflict between them. Their poor communication perpetuates the perception of conflict, further eroding the relationship, and jeopardizing the mutual goal of successfully completing the project, which will negatively impact their individual goals. In order to resolve this problem, it is recommended that El Kalza take measures to improve the communication process, and employ a problem solving approach to...
