Question

amar works for an it company as a project coordinator. his boss, ajay is very adamant and wants the work to be done according to his way without even considering anyone’s perspective. if amar commits any minor mistake also he is reprimanded in front of the entire team. ajay wants amar to stay late beyond office hours, even when his work is complete. consider the given situation and explain the pitfalls in leadership shown by ajay.

Answer 1

Ajay is a poor Manager. It is wrong to imagine that his way is the only way a job ought to be done, if Amar is doing the job correctly in the latter's own way. Ajay is suppressing the entrepreneurial skills in his subordinate; this situation is worsened when every little error on the subordinate's part is ridiculed or blown out of proportion by the superior.
By humiliating his subordinate in front of his colleagues, Ajay is dampening his subordinate from being innovative or proactive.
Ajay is also losing respect in the office by unnecessarily detaining his subordinate and acting like a bully.
My feeling about Ajay is that he is an insecure superior, who fears that Amar could turn out to be more efficient than him in the long run. 

Answer 2

Answer:for any business to succeed it is very important on manager's part to keep his employees motivated.if he insults the employees or degrades them it may staraight away effect their performance and thus,effects the quality of production.the motivation skills and good understanding of employees psychology are part of a good leadership skills.

in the above case study we can see that ajay is a very dominating and strict boss.though it is good to be strict and get work done on tim e and within cost but we need to maintain a good balace between employee and employer.if ajay wants amar to work for extra hours then he should offer extra money for extra hour of work.it may be a small or big amount as ajay may decide but it would be a motivating factor for amar to word much hard.ajay also needs to understand the basic human psycology,he should know that every human is different and there are different ways to deal with different kind of minds.some people who are sensitive like amar,may feel humilated to frequently be scolded in front of the staff.ajay should try to indivisualy talk to amar regarding his errors in work.this way he wont feel bad and he would also realise his mistake.ajay should also appreciate the staff who performs good.this motivates the employees to perform more better.
