SOLUTION  

Why did it cause change?

A new manager was hired to give the organization a fresh perspective. There was a lot of problems in one of the departments and the new manager noticed the employees’ poor performance. This caused him to pay close attention to where the problems were and he noticed that people are not being worked in the areas where their strengths were. This caused an “I don’t care” attitude in the employees, which in turn resulted in poor customer service and lack of organizational citizenship. …….please click the icon below to purchase the solution at $5
