Q2 Case Study {20marks } ,

Bipin is the general manager - marketing and sales of a pharmaceutical company which has been growing up at a rapid pace having notched a turnover of nearly Rs200cr in just five years time. Bipin has also grown with the company having joined as a territory manager initially Institutional / Hospital sales of their ethical drugs which constitute nearly 55% of the company's total sales which has been steady all throughout the last five years. During this recent visit to one of the hospitals to secure the order for the year round supply of drugs amounting total sale of nearly Rs 46 lakhs the concerned people asked him a commission / cut of 8% as against earlier arrangement of 5%.

Whereas on the other hand within the company there had been debate going over that the company having established its position in the market and having attained a turnover of Rs 200crs they need to address the company's value system and follow fair trade practices to the extent possible. Under such circumstances he realized that it would be difficult for him to convince the managing director to agree to concede 8% commission against 5% cut so far. He also realized that unless a higher percentage of commission agreed, his company would loose the entire order since there is a fierce competition in the market and others are prepared to lure the concerned authorities with better attractive terms.

Thus if not worked out it would not only cause a set back to attain higher sales target for the year but also his prospect of promotion to the position of the Vice President Marketing and Sales might materialize on the contrary his job might be at stake.

Mr. P. B. Rao looked back at his career in the consumer goods company
(Manufacturing soaps, detergents and toiletries, which was a part of a large Indian
business) with pride and satisfaction. He had joined the company in the early
seventies as a management trainee and rose to the position of General Manager
(Marketing) after a service of over thirty years.

As a management trainee, he had received training in each department of the
company in manufacturing, finance, personnel etc. After a period of one year he
was appointed as a junior executive in the marketing Department. The Head of the
Department assigned a set of products to him and gave him challenging targets. Mr.
Rao worked hard and tried his best to justify the confidence the boss had placed in
him.

Because of his good performance Mr. Rao’s responsibilities were increased
and he was given charge of additional products. His job also involved touring
different parts of the country. After three years Mr. Rao decided that in order to
progress in his career he should take up a part time evening course in Business
Management. He was happy that the company agreed to pay the fees.


On completion of the course Mr. Rao was promoted as Brand Manager.
Thereafter he progressed steadily but not spectacularly in his career. Because of his
long hours of work, the responsibility of his children’s education fell mainly on his
wife.
One of his sons qualified as a computer professional and was selected to join
the same business group where Mr. Rao had served. The job involved signing a
bond for three years which the son signed and for which Mr. Rao was one of the
guarantors. The son was sent abroad for training in computers and on his return
was appointed as a Project Manager.


One day the son informed the father that he had received an extremely
lucrative offer from a computer giant in the U.S. which he desired to accept. Mr. Rao
was disturbed as his son had not served the bond period and in any case he
strongly disapproved of job hopping.

(2) Case Study
Read the following case carefully and stating your assumptions clearly.
Answer the questions below:

Mr. Sharadchandra Tiwari owns a bookshop for the last over fifty years. He
deals in a varied range of printed as well as non— print sources such as books,
magazines1 periodicals, CDs, cassettes etc. on a wide range of subjects. He has a
set of loyal bonafide customers, which include individuals, Institutions, corporates,
etc. Mr. Tiwari’s genuine “one-to-one” customer care is well known through the
various customer-friendly schemes he’s been adopting.


One of the more popular schemes is the “Dial-a-book” service (D-a-b), where
a toll-free number is available all day long for anyone who wants to source any
material from any where in the world. They have been known to successfully obtain
books, periodicals, etc. from the remotest place at the earliest. And most
importantly, they charge nothing extra at all-only the landed price of the book in
terms of current dollar exchange rate.
In the guise of “value-added service” proposing to be implemented by his 26 (10)
year old dynamic MBA—educated son, Mr. Hemchandra Tiwari, they are
contemplating a 5% service charge for customers availing of the D-a-b service, from
1st May 2003. To that effect they shoot off letters to all their customers. The
reaction from the customers is mixed, varying from “shock” to “justified acceptance”
“of the fact” that nothing comes free”. Some avid customers approach Mr.
Sharadchandra Tiwari and tender an appeal to re-look into the, proposal and not go
ahead with it. They also provide hint with facts and figures mentioning how his well-
earned goodwill may erode. His philanthropic image will also be at stake. He may
lose good customers.


Questions:

(a) Do you feel Hemchandra Tiwari is doing the “right thing”? State your reasons
from the perspective of Indian Management Thought.
(b) How do you think Mr. Sharadchandra Tiwari would respond to the, appeal made
by his customers?
(c) Do you see a conflict situation? Propose a solution.

Tiwari’s as well as from the customer’s. (5)

(b) Concept of KARMA.
(c) De-Egoization v/s De-personification.
(d) Values and Skills.

(2) Case Study

Mr. l.K. Prasad is the Chief Engineer of the State Electricity Board, and Mr.
Prasad has a reputation of being ‘soft’ on his employees, due to which, it was
rumored, many of his employees do not exactly stick to the rules and regulations of
the organization. When Mr. P. Kumar joined the Board as a young engineer just
after his engineering degree, he was appalled to see how many people casually
broke the rules of the Board and got away with it. Time and again, he had tried to
impress upon Mr. Prasad to take disciplinary action, at least against the workmen
and the staff, but to no avail. Mr. Prasad would just ignore his complaints, saying
that he did not yet have enough experience to understand the implications of these
things.
One day, Mr. Prasad and Mr. Kumar were traveling together long distance, on
some official duty. Suddenly Mr. Kumar happened to notice one of their truck drivers
stopping at a point on the highway and taking up people into the truck, who were
waiting near the roadside.

That’s Balwant, Sir, cried Mr. Kumar, ‘he’s picking up passengers from the
roadside in his truck, and taking money from them’.

Mr. Prasad too turned around and spotted Balwant doing exactly what Mr.
Kumar has noticed. Just at the same time, Balwant too turned around and spotted
his Board’s car with “Chief Engineer’ written in the car plates. But because of his
white curtains in the car he could not be sure whether the occupants in the car had
noticed him or not.

“Stop the car immediately, driver”, shouted Mr. Kumar, “I say, stop
immediately; we have to catch him red-handed.”
“No, keep going’, said Mr. Prasad urgently to the driver, “pretend not have to
seen him’.
“But, Sir – why? We had a good chance to catch him red handed. We have
known it since a long time that Balwant uses his truck to make a little on the side”
exclaimed Mr. Kumar, as their car sped away.

“Calm down Kumar, clam down’, replied Mr. Prasad patting Kumar’s knee. “I
too know that whenever Balwant has to transport goods along distance, he uses the
return trip to pick passengers from the roadside. I also know that you see it as going
against rules.

I Know it is against the rules. But think analytically. How much salary does
Balwant get from the Boar? Even after 10-12 years of service, his services have not
yet been confirmed. He earns around Rs.2600/- per month. He has two children
apart from his aged parents who live with him. Can anyone today support a six
member family on less than Rs.3,000/- per month? It is not out of choice that
Balwant, or anyone else for that matter breaks rules. Would you or I not have been
tempted to do just what Balwant had done, had we been in his place? And how
much do you think he earns from these passengers? 100 rupees? As you have
seen, these passengers are all daily-wage laborers or poor people, too poor to even
pay the bus fare, and waits for some like Balwant to give them a ride for a pittance.
Moreover, what harm is Balwant really causing to the Board? The truck would have
anyway come empty in its return trip. It is not that Balwant is causing some
additionally expenses to the Board by his action. Just now you wanted to stop the
car. Had I stopped the care to catch him, or had even given an indication that I had
seen him, I would had to take action against him. I would have been compelled to at
least call him to my office tomorrow and warned him not to repeat what he has done
today, or to even give him a notice asking him for a written explanation. Then he
would have had to stop what he has been doing or I would have had to take
stronger action like terminating his services or suspending him.. Now, he feels safe
that no one has seen him. You know Kumar; you have to be humane when dealing
with people. People like Balwant have not received much from our society, nor from
the Board where he has been working for so many years. Management must be
founded not only on values like honesty and truth and righteousness, but also on
qualities like tolerance, sympathy and compassion.
Questions:
(a) Do you believe Mr. Prasad, the Chief Engineer is correct in his belief?
(b) What kind of value system is Mr. Prasad trying to build in his Board?
(c) Do you think, it is really unethical to break rules?
(d) What would you have done had you been in Mr. Prasad’s place? In Mr. Kumar’s
Place?
Section — II

(3) “For achieving behavioral change, the core values of individuals have to be
addressed”. Discuss this statement in the context of Indian organizations.

(4) How does Indian management thoughts harmonies the environment and human
society?

(5) Draw a comparative study of value systems practiced in America, China and Japan.

(6) How might someone argue that whistle blowing is morally permitted? Argue your
answer with reference to the act off whistle blowing by Satyendra Dubey in the case
of golden quadrilateral project.

(7) Describe the concept of Transformational Leadership” Explain the concept with an
Indian perspective.

(2) Case Study: Just a modest change in the Records

Mrs. A.P. Raman was senior human resources executive reporting to the Vice
President of Employee Relations, of a major company when this incident occurred.
One of her responsibilities was administering the psychological assessment
program for, and maintaining the assessment profiles on, all senior executives.

The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors asked for a summary
profile on each senior executive for succession planning purposes. Mrs. A. P.
Raman felt that to prevent misinterpretation these summaries should be prepared
by the consulting firm that had done the original assessments, and therefore she
instructed them to do so.

The consulting firm completed the summaries as instructed and forwarded
them to the Vice President of Employee Relations, for review. He then passed them
along to Mrs. A. P. Raman, who was to prepare the final compilation for the
Executive Committee. The next week, several revised summaries came from the
Vice President. He had made significant changes to the consultants’ summaries. On
one summary, for example, the Vice-President had changed “promotable” to “not
promotable”. Mrs. A. P. Raman was appalled at the changes, and concerned about
what to do. The modifications violated her sense of ethics, but she was afraid if she
questioned them, she would place her job and her future in jeopardy. The more she
thought about it, the more concerned she became. Was it possible someone above
the Vice President level had requested these changes?
Questions: (Each question carries 5 marks each)
