Abstract:
|
This case (based on generalized experience) is about a mid-sized pharmaceutical company in India, DrugPharmz. Barun Sinha (Barun), was a successful first-line manager in the company who had developed a very good team that was high on team spirit and also very productive. But success brought along with it complacency. A discussion that Barun had with one of the senior members of his team made him realize that, of late, he had done precious little to take care of the developmental needs of his team members. Barun now had to develop individual development plans for each of his team members and also work out how he would go about providing coaching to them on an ongoing basis.
