It was the end of performance review cycle for the year 2012, when you asked your subordinates about any problems they were facing. Natraj told you that an important member of his team, Vardarajan, who has also won the best performance award for the year 2011, was not taking interest in work. Despite Natraj’s counselling, no change was noticed in Vardarajan, rather his attitude deteriorated. You had also received such information from other employees. You had not interfered hoping that Natraj, an experienced hand, would be able to solve the problem. But, now that Natraj himself brought this your notice, you decided to call Vardarajan and counsel him. You overheard a conversation between Vardarajan and his colleague over an official dinner. He expressed his unhappiness about the fact that good performers were not given their due credit while poor performers were promoted faster. If Vardarajan is right, which of the following steps would help in creating a better organisation? (a) promote Vardarajan with immediate effect (b) Ensure that performance is objectively and transparently assessed (c) Give another assignment to Vardarajan (d) give higher salary to Vardarajan |
