Decision Making Steps
 The company does not follow each of the eight fundamental
steps
 The steps they follow are as stated below :
 1. Field engineers detect the problem and report to the top-level
managers.
 2. A trend analysis is carried out and a suitable solution is found.
 3. The solution is then implemented via the field engineers.
 4. The field managers then evaluate the effectiveness of the
implemented solution.
Decisions that Managers
make in their Four Roles
 Planning:
 Managers take decisions that are in the best interests of the business
 During stable conditions, decisions are made by the manager himself
 In the current unstable and highly competitive market situation,
brainstorming sessions are becoming necessary
 Organizing:
 Employs about 1500 employees
 Employees are allocated to their jobs according to the functions they
will be carrying out
 Resources are allocated according to the location of sales outlets and
target consumer groups
 Transportation of materials and finished goods, are done using roads
and waterways
 Leading:
 A leader needs three important characteristics, will to do hard work,
sincerity and honesty
 Motivation is done mainly through financial incentives;
performance, sales, target achieving and festival bonuses
 Training and Brainstorming sessions also aid motivation
 Controlling:
 Controlling is done through a hierarchy of supervisors.
