Question

1. Case study: Mr. Simon had just graduated from a B-school, Chennai, and joined his father’s small business, which employed 38 semi-skilled workers. After a week his father, a retired Military officer called him and said. “Simon”, I have had a chance to observe your working with the employees for a few days. Although I hate to, I must say something. You are just too nice to people. I know they taught you human relations stuff at the institution but it just does not work here. I remember, when the Hawthorne studies were first reported, everyone at the academic field felt excited about them. But believe me, there is more to managing people than just being nice to them” Question: 1. Do you think, Mr. Simon’s father understood and interpreted the Hawthorne studies correctly? 2. If you were Mr. Simon, what would be your reaction to his father’s comment?
