THE OUTSIDER

 Problem

Mr. Santiago is new to the company but already assigned as assistant to the president
and chief executive officer. Some employees think that it is somehow unfair because he
is just new to the company and his effectiveness, efficiency and credibility has not yet
known. Also, his ability to communicate and understand the information about work is
still lacking. It is unclear to everyone that someone new has a higher position, and those
employees who worked hard for years in the company is still not promoted.

 Case facts

Peter Movers Corporation expanding its operation in its construction business and
trading activities that is why they hired Mr. Roger Santiago a nontechnical executive as
assistant tox the President and chief- executive officer since they need to hire new and
fresh executive for the growing work force. But then, older managers did not take it well
because they felt they been set aside by the company that insider should have been
placed instead of Mr. Santiago. Nonetheless, he continue to prove his worth that cause
big improvements in system design and work improvement programs. After five years,
Mr. Santiago promoted as

Vice president and because of his dedication and hard work employees sees and
accept his worth to the position.

 Analysis/Hypothesis

Mr. Santiago was not received well by older managers. But he continued to prove that
he is worthy in his position. He brought a substantial improvement at the company. He
made a lot of improvements in system design and work improvement program. In the
end he was promoted in the position of vice president that can cause to improve well
the programs of the company. He was well received now by the older managers in the
position of vice president because he proved himself to them.

 Alternative Courses of Action

A company has well train employee and since the company is expanding the president
decided to hire new employee who is Mr. Santiago and added him to the team manager
and to the assistant of the president. But some team manager didn't want Mr. Santiago
to be on that position because they think that the president should hire other employee
who is not new in the company and is well trained unlike Mr. Santiago who is just new
comer so that Mr. Santiago had difficulty in communicating and getting information from
the other team manager on the other hand the president should have promoted a
person who is already an employee in the company to avoid conflict and if he just
promoted an insider then maybe the team manager will have a good relation to that
person because he is not new in the company. The company should have hired an
employer who has a good credentials and already proved his credibility inside the
company. Also, the company should have let Mr. Santiago adjust to his new work
environment in order to have a good relationship with other employee, and he can
communicate well to the other employee, and in that way he can prove his worthiness in
the assigned position to him Lastly, the president should inform that the outsider should
not be in high position at first because that position is need to be work hard and earned
in the process rather than getting it easily.

 Recommendation and Conclusion

I conclude that in one organization or company as a boss or president I should

reconsider the feelings of every employee, appreciate every skills that they have and
make them feel that they worth it by promoting them or get them in high position base
on their performance to avoid problem or conflict like that because my company is
expanding I immediately find hire the outsider employee and give him/her a high
position. I should be more wise and detailed in decision made for the people or
employee to do well and the company as well.
