Scenario 1: Our client is Pamela To, the CEO of Amica Widgets.
Ms. To feels that there are some redundancies in her company. So,
she wants to find out the following:
• Where are the people?
• What are they doing? •
What are their skill sets?
To help with this, she has engaged you as a consultant to make a
spreadsheet survey that will contain all this information for all
the company’s employees. She also got you to write an instruction
sheet on how to fill up the spreadsheet survey. There are 9 layers
in Amica Widgets:
Layer 1: CEO
Layer 2: VPs
Layers 3-8: Other Managers
Layer 9: Employees
There are 10 VPs and 1,800 people in all in the organization.
Assume it takes 30 minutes to read the instruction sheet and 3
minutes to fill information about each person in the spreadsheet
survey.
There are three options for the CEO to conduct the redundancy
survey:
A. Send the survey and instructions to the 10 VPs who will
complete the surveys and send back to the CEO.
B. There are 360 people with people management roles in the
organization. These 360 people will fill up the survey for all
their direct reports.
C. Choose 60 managers who will fill up the information for 30
people each
