Decision Maker: The CEO of Precision (PPL) is the main decision maker in the case. While
the HR Head and other senior managers have played important roles in events development,
the CEO calls it quits. He is responsible for the company's strategic direction and resolution
of conflicts.
Dilemma: The CEO's dilemma is a complex bundle of problems involving multiple aspects:
Handling Union Relations: Whether to keep up good relations with the union, or rather to
respond with a more aggressive approach when perceived insubordination occurs.
Dealing with Workforce Morale: On the one hand to take disciplinary actions towards union
leaders and workers versus keeping employees motivated and productive at all times.
Addressing Trainee Employment Issues: On how to employ new trainees in the face of
opposition from the union.
Association of Unions with Training Programs: Let union representatives join in both
the design and implementation of the training program. This will produce a project
which is in line with the goals of the company and suits the workers.
Foster a positive working environment:
Promote Inclusiveness: Begin programs to reintroduce trust and comradeship between
workers and management. This might include collective activities, forums or open-top
problem-solving meetings.
Recognition and Incentive Programs: Introduce systems to recognize workers'
contributions and give rewards for great performances. This will increase their morale
and productivity.
Implementation Plan:
Through these steps, the CEO can resolve immediate problems while laying the
groundwork for greater stability and partnership in the future.
