2. Read the following case study and select what you think is the most appropriate answer for each situation. Tamanna joined a company as an Assistant Manager three years ago. She has performed well in her job and wants to move up in her career. To do that, she needs to be a ‘wholesome leader’. If Tamanna is to become a ‘wholesome leader’, what would you advise her to do in the following situations? 

(a) Shanti, who reports to her, is a qualified employee. She lacks confidence and thinks that she doesn’t have the ability to complete a challenging project. What should Tamanna do? 

(i) Remove Shanti from the company as having her in the company might set a bad example to others. 

(ii) Have Shanti in the company, but give her easy tasks.She is a qualified person and will still be able to contribute to the company. 

(iii) Ask Shanti to do any job which she likes. Giving her freedom may help her gain confidence. 

(iv) Tell Shanti about the things she has accomplished in the past and show her that she has the ability to perform.

Ans: (iv) One of the leader’s responsibilities is to nurture leadership abilities of their team members. To do this, it’s necessary to push them out of their comfort zone and give them confidence that they have ability to accomplish new tasks.

(b) Vinod is a creative person with many brilliant ideas. He is very shy and prefers to remain silent. The company is facing a tough situation and a meeting has been called to find a solution quickly. Every one gives many ideas. Vinod is also present in the meeting but does not open his mouth. What should Tamanna do? 

(i) Ignore Vinod as time is very short and move ahead with the suggestion provided by others. 

(ii) Shout at Vinod for not speaking during the meeting. His silence may encourage others to be silent too. 

(iii) Encourage Vinod to participate and ask for his ideas even if it takes more time to complete the meeting. 

(iv) Let Vinod be and don’t interfere. Forcing someone to give their ideas is not a good idea.

Ans: (iii) A leader needs to take everyone along. Every member of the team brings something unique to the table. Also, Vinod may bring some fresh insights which will make others to think in new directions. This will benefit everyone. 

(c) Len is a close friend of Tamanna. Balvinder is also working in the same office. Both are reporting to Tamanna. She has to recommend one of them for promotions. Balvinder is more qualified than Len, but promoting him could damage her friendship with Len. What should Tammana do? 

(i) Promote Len as friendship is more important than company requirements. 

(ii) Promote Balvinder as company comes first and explain to Len that as her friend he should help her take this tough decision. 

(iii) Promote neither Len nor Balvinder and recommend a third person. This would avoid any unpleasantness. 

(iv) Promote Balvinderand befriend him. It makes sense to be friends with a qualified person. Also, Len will become a source of problem.

Ans: (ii) Many a time we need to decide between an ‘easy choice’ and a ‘right choice’. Making the ‘right choice’ is tough but that’s what makes one a ‘wholesome leader’. Balwinder is more qualified for the job and is the ‘right choice’ for the promotion.

(d) Tamanna has to decide whether to accept a new project or not. She doesn’t have the qualification to complete it successfully. However, taking this up will help her in her quest to become a leader. What should Tamanna do? 

(i) Accept the project as her personal desire; to be promoted matters more. If she ignores this offer, she may not get any in the future. 

(ii) Reject the project outright and wait for the next one which suits her skills. If she fails to perform in this project, it will spoil her reputation. 

(iii) Tell the top management that the project can be executed better by another person. However, make a request to allow her to assist the project in a capacity suitable to her talents. She can use this as an opportunity to learn. 

(iv) Don’t take any action and let her bosses take the decision instead. Sometimes not taking a decision is the best decision.

Ans: (iii) A ‘wholesome leader’s’ words and actions match. If Tamanna is unable to deliver on her promise, it will lower the trust in her. Accepting one’s limitation is also a strength. She will be appreciated for her honesty which will help her in the long run.
