Human resources are the most important asset of
an organisation. The ability of an organisation to
achieve its goal depends upon the quality of its human
resources. The General Manager of 'Allied and Sons’
appointed an IIM graduate, Pawan Rai, specialised in
finance as Marketing Manager. On monthly
evaluation, it was found that Pawan Rai’s
performance was not up to expectations and he was
not able to meet the monthly targets of the
organisation. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of
the company asked for investigation into the matter.
The CEO was told that Pawan Rai has specialisation
in finance but was appointed as a Marketing
Manager. The CEO discussed this matter with the
General Manager and explained to him the
importance of putting the right person at the right job.
He further explained that it would not only lead to
higher performance but would also provide many
other benefits. Besides the benefits of putting the right
man at the right job, state the three other benefits
which the CEO might have explained to the General
Manager that are not given in the above para.
