Explanation:
For Several months employees of a large corporation have been very dissatisfied with the new division
head. Before the arrival of the new division head, the department had functioned as a cohesive,
effective unit, combining hard work with equal amount of leisure. The new division head has very
strong idea about the types of environment his employees should have. As one supervisor puts it, it
resembles a full scale military operation. No longer are occasional informal gatherings during office
hours. The bottom line has become productivity first, with the employees' feelings being considered as
an afterthought. Grass-root employees as well as supervisory personnel are very upset about the
changes in structure, and their dissatisfaction is beginning to show up in their performances. Because
of the decreased productivity levels, the supervisors have been informed that if they don't shape up
their subordinates, the axe will fall on several heads". The frustration and anger is now beginning to
come to a full boil and the supervisors have decided to meet to discuss the situation.
