Managerial Decision Exercises

  1. You are a manager, and your direct report is complaining about not being involved in the planning process. How do you respond?
  2. You are a sales manager and have reviewed the monthly sales goals and conclude that the targets can’t be achieved without additional hires or paying employees overtime to secure additional orders. Also, you think that the product could have an 8% price increase without hindering sales units. You review the operational plans and want to provide an alteration of the plans to your boss. What should you do to plan that discussion?
