Q1. Rank in order the new actions according to how employees will react-for example, from that’s fine to that’s overkill to that’s insane??
Answer: - Thermostats protected by locked boxes, will set at 80* in the summer and 70* in winter. It represents these temperatures are the allowed ranges, not the actual set points. We usually set the temperature between 76 and 80 during the summer and between 66 and 68 in the winter when in heating mode. So, I would have opinion that employees would have find it ‘’OVERKILL’’. Few suggestions that would make a company to energy oriented usage. a. Keep the air conditioner not cooler then 78* and the heater not warmer than the 68*, set the AC temp higher or the heat temp. Lower when you are away, or turn it off completely if no required. b. Microwaves, personal refrigerators, and fans will be banned if any electrical cord found to be cut, THATS SEEMS TO BE INSANE. As it cannot be considered as the fault of all employees, it make occur by default as well. c. Use the ceiling fans found in all the rooms to stay cooler and to help AC do its job. As well as computers turned off after 7pm would make me feel THATS FINE, as it helps to save energy. d. Recycling barrels availability throughout the building seems to be impressive idea. So employees will consider it THATS FINE

Q2. Then think about any actions that you and the local managers may be able to take that will offset some of the resistance of employees. For example, can you change the dress code seasonally to make the office environment more comfortable? What changes can employees themselves make to minimize the negative effects of the changes?
Answer: - To minimise negative effects of employees’ local managers will do many efforts to achieve success in this work. What they do to make environment comfortable:
1. They will give permission to each employee of company that they can wear any dress on Saturday’s.
2. Apart from that rewards and recognition to workers who have participated to save the environment after certain interval of time.
3. Incentives will be given to each worker who is involved to save the electric power because this saved power can be given to slum areas or we can say that the power saving directly assist to raise economy of the country.
4. Every Saturday lunch will be freely provided by company to employees.
5. In case of any injury to employees all of the medical facilities will be provided by the industry like medical expenses, full salary of worker whether he/she worked or not.
6. Regular promotion of each employee after regular interval of time.
Q3. What questions can you anticipate? What excuses can you expect for not complying?
Answer: When employees going to receive notice about the changes inside the organization they surely going to ask so many questions regarding changes made.
They perhaps going to ask these questions: 1. Why is it necessary to ban electronic items like microwaves, refrigerators, fans which were used by every single person? 2. Why should computers turned off automatically at 7 p.m. daily and what if someone is doing some important work and at 7p.m. his/her computer goes turned off automatically? Who is responsible for any data losses? 3. Is there any fine for not using recycling barrels ? 4. How employees going to survive to give their fullest in summers without fans?
To incite the employees some relaxations will we given to them so that they do work efficiently with less resources and affectively.
They may try many excuses to not implement those ideas inside organization. Some of the excuses are as following: 1. I can’t eat food without heating it. 2. I have asthmatic problems I can’t breathe without fans or maybe they say they feel suffocation without fans. 3. They can’t use refrigerators how they are going to preserve their food. 4. Computers should not be automatically turned off because data could be lost in automatic shut downs 5. How we are going to survive in low and high temperatures if thermostats could be changed.
These kind of excuses they are going to made to confront the implementation of those ideas.

Q4. To minimize the negative effect on morale, should you deliver this news in person at a meeting or in writing?
Answer: To minimize the negative effect on morale we will deliver this news in person at a meeting because no matter how carefully you've tried to make a case for your change, some people won't get it. It's not that they're trying to give you a hard time. They just don't yet understand the implications of the change you're proposing.
Some people may agree with you without hesitation. That may seem ideal, but you need to be sure they understand the implications of the change we are championing. We have to engage people in genuine dialogue. Otherwise we risk their swallowing our message whole without fully digesting it, realizing only later that it gave them heartburn. So, meeting in person is good where we can answer all the problems, misunderstandings about new ideas can be solved.

Q5. Outline your presentation, showing a balance of managerial behaviour and empathy with employees?
Answer: “Managerial behaviour (Power) properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose. It is the strength required to bring about social, political, and economic change, and one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of Empathy (love) and power have usually been contrasted as opposites – polar opposites – so that love is identified with the resignation of power, and power with the denial of love. Now we’ve got to get this thing right. What we need to realise is that power without love is vague and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anaemic. It is precisely this collision of immoral power with powerless morality which constitutes the major crisis of our time.” Now, it is very significant to consider the feedback of the employees towards managers that how they are being successful to maintain the balance between the managerial behaviour and empathy with the work environment.
