Question 1: What is the key learning for you as leader? Answer: All 12 jurors had their own understanding and rationale behind their actions. Information sharing and consensus building is important to make the decision. Every member is a potential contributor to the process of decision making, which involves understanding the problem, breaking it down to meaningful components, formulating a general strategy in terms of a sequence of action steps, generating alternatives, providing and pooling the required information, generating favourable and unfavourable points for each alternative, coming to a shared understanding, making a final choice, and getting the commitment of all members to the choice made. The commitment of the jurors to the implementation of the solution is thus assured. In this case, the decision making style of the group was mainly a participative style. All the jurors proceeded through the entire decision making process. The role of leader (Juror 1) was that of a process facilitator. As the consequence of the decision made by the jurors was very serious (conviction of murder), it was very important for the decision to be made after ‘Deep Deliberation’. In this style, the person spends large amounts of time and attention weighing out all possible options before deciding on one. A person places great time and importance on the decision. There were some factors which hindered consensus building like dominating nature of few jurors (Juror 3 and Juror 10: they forcibly tried to put their

Movie Review

...An Analysis on Ek Ruka Huwa Faisala from Communication Perspective Submitted to: Course Instructor Managerial Communication Apex College Submitted by: Laxman Aryal Roll no. 8 Manikkya Apex College 2012 Ek Ruka Hua Faisala is a Bollywood movie directed by Basu Chatterjee inspired from Hollywood film 12 Angry Men. We the student of MBA are shown this movie to learn some lesson of Managerial Communication. Altthough this is a movie about different organizational behavior, it also gives a strong example of effective communication. This is a movie about 19 year old boy who was a suspect for murder of his father. There was a committee of 12 people assigned to decide whether boy was culprit or not. All 12 jurors must agree whether a young man is guilty or not of murdering his father. In this movie we observe the entire decision making process. Where each individual had different perception and different behavior in particular situation. Their personal opinion leads them to one wrong decision first but later on with just one leading, convincing, neutral and practical individual, they were able to think on the other side of the case and finally they reached to right conclusion. A switch from 11-1 to 0-12 is very rare in real life juries, but Ek Ruka Hua Faisla very convincingly depicts the switch. It achieves this by staying true to the realities of group dynamics through effective and proper communication. Once the objective of the group is established, they start...

Ek Ruka Hua Faisla Report

...CASE STUDY ASSIGNMENT EK RUKA HUA FAISLA GROUP - 3 Group Members:- Amit Pandit Mittal Shah Ramachandran Ravi Kumar Saleem Ali Shaman Singh PLOT SUMMARY: In this movie, the jury of twelve men is entrusted with the power to send an uneducated, teenage boy to the Death Penalty. The crime that the boy is accused of is killing his father with a knife. The jury is locked into a small, claustrophobic room, on a hot summer day, until they come up with a unanimous decision. The decision that is to decide a boy’s life is to be either guilty or not guilty. The film is particularly important as it examines the twelve men's deep-seated personal prejudices. These are reflected in the perceptual biases and weaknesses, indifference, anger, personalities, unreliable judgments, cultural differences, ignorance and fears, that are in a position to mar their decision-making abilities, and subsequently cause them to ignore the real issues in the case. This can potentially lead them to a miscarriage of justice. What are the key learning for you as leaders? First and foremost, we learn that every decision should be based on reasonable evidence and it can be dangerous to rush to conclusions. In the movie, most of the Jury members were initially in a hurry to shut the case and pronounce the accused guilty even when they know it’s a matter of someone’s life. Only Mr. Raina stands against such a decision and demands that the jury should give appropriate time to the issue and have a healthy...
