However, due to the overwhelming workload and lack of motivation from the management, the efforts and positive attitude of the employees (In this case Joe Chaney) has been declining. Once confident, encouraging, efficient and exited about his work Joe became easily irritated, argumentative with his co-workers, and was also noted for “slacking off” multiple times at his work.

Joe’s manager’s coaching style is more suitable to salespeople who are excessing their sales quotas, not suitable to Joe since he’s falling behind on sales quotas and VP of the sales department isn’t pleased with his performance. Communication skill is extremely important in sales force management since every factor in sales needs communication skills including good oral and written communication skills. (Spiro, R. L., Rich, G. A., and Stanton, W. J.) Joe’s manager didn’t try to communicate with Joe and didn’t try to understand more about his weakness prior the arrival of the meeting with the hospital, instead, he tried to coach Joe in front of the clients by saying “try this…and tell him that…” His behavior is absolutely unprofessional because it shows the weakness of the sales person and it tells clients that sales person had poor strategic planning before the meeting and during the meeting.

I believe that although Peter provides low work performance he is fairly satisfied with his job. This is possibly due to the work environment, where “success is directly proportional to how busy you look”, among a couple other things (Hughes, Ginnett, and Curphy, p. 379). The textbook states that “The implicit link between satisfaction and motivation is that satisfaction increases when people accomplish, a task, particularly when the task requires a lot of effort” (Hughes, Ginnett, and Curphy, p. 337). Which leads us to areas where the company is lacking.
Throughout the year, Stacy’s job continued to be a challenge. Since he still had not been adequately trained on how to do certain tasks, he had a higher possibility of making a mistake, and if a mistake rises, his managers are more likely to once again reprimand him, rather than trying to fix the problem in a more positive way where Stacy would gain the benefit of learning from his mistakes. Since the firm was struggling with accounts, a psychologist was brought in to determine the situation and the main cause for this poor turnover. After many employees, including Stacy, complained about the poor work conditions, the psychologist eventually confirmed that the reason for the failing firm was due to poor managing in the work place. After the managers heard about the suggested reasons to why their firm was failing, they decided that instead of trying to fix their managing

This caused friction on the line with the remaining experienced workers because Nick did not agree with their functions of operation. Cost of operation escalated with the higher turnover.
