Mr.Ramachandran is the president of ABC
Corporation Limited Recently, it was decided by Board of Directors that it
would be profitable for the corporation to open its own Marketing Department.
Mr.Ramachandran has been directed to pick up a person who he feels is capable
of heading the department, and then putting this person in charge of getting
the department on its feet. After considering a number of good men,
Mr.Ramachandran has narrowed the field down to two possible choices: Ashok
Marwaha and Pramod Kumar. Ashok Marwaha has a good track record with the
company. He was hired eight years ago, and through the years he has shown a
good deal of drive and initiative in all of his endeavours. Marwaha is an
aggressive young man, and he had received the nickname of go-getter in his
department. Although Marwaha seems to be more concerned at times with ends
rather than means, he is very efficient and he is considered a good leader by
those who work under him. As one worker stated, “although he can get rough with
you at times, you always know where you stand with him, and when you have done
a good job, he lets you know it,” Marwaha is also credited with accepting full
responsibility, in all cases, and making quick decisions when action is called
for. Pramod Kumar has been with the company foe eleven years. He is well liked
by all in his department, and his work is first rate. Pramod Kumar’s leadership
style differs from Marwaha’s in that Pramod is not as aggressive and quick to
act as Marwaha. Before Pramod makes a decision, he generally consults others
who he feels can contribute further information on a given subject. This often
includes those who work under him. Those who work under Pramod consider him a
good leader, and state that the atmosphere of participation produced by Pramod
really encourages their utmost individual output while on the job. This can be
seen by the production increase which soon occurred when Pramod became the head
of his work force.
