They have an obscure organizational structure for the employees to trace out whom are they going to
approach in case of arising problems. Management is not identified. They dont practice controlling and
proper staffing. No unity of command. No proper designation of responsibilities, Improper allocation of
time spent in the partnership by the partners, services are not rendered properly and organization is
lack of communication, Management and management control.

Objectives:

The partners must not have sacrifice the services to the members equal to what they are paid
for, For the sake of their sales.

must first get the consent of the partner first before recruiting employees.
Alternative Courses of Action:
A proper organizational structure is necessary to trace whom they are going to approach, and
employees must learn what are their functions and they must have initiative.
Inefficient and ineffective regional managers must be fired because they are useless. Top level
management will be the one to manage directly.
Arising problems must entertain by both partners to avoid accumulation of those. Setting
common goal is necessary. Solve problem first , provide solution before expanding business.

management standards and each must follow. They must frequently communicate the persons who are
involve in the organization, And practice proper controlling and proper staffing. Settle minor problems
to avoid worsening. Sales does not solve any problems. They must be aware about their business
performance.
