TOP LEVEL MGMT.

Senior management, executive management, or management team is generally a team of

individuals at the highest level of organizational management who have the day-to-day

responsibilities of managing a company or corporation, they hold specific executive

powers conferred onto them with and by authority of the board of directors and/or the

shareholders. There are most often higher levels of responsibility, such as a board of

directors and those who own the company (shareholders), but they focus on managing the

senior or executive management instead of the day-to-day activities of the business. The

executive management typically consists of the heads of the firm's product and/or

geographic units and of functional executives such as the chief financial officer, the chief

operating officer, and the chief strategy officer. In Project Management, senior

management is responsible for authorising the funding of projects.

10
Top Management and Key Personnel Positions in a Business
As you develop your business plan, a “management team” needs to be pulled together,

with serious thought given to the key positions that need to be filled and who should fill

them.

The path of least resistance should be avoided - that is, placing close friends and relatives

in key positions simply because of who they are. There are two criteria to justify placing

someone in a position on your management team. First, does the person have the training

and skills to do the job? Second, does the person have the track record to prove his/her

talents?

Often, a management team evolves over time. Members of your team may wear several

hats until the company grows and the company can afford the additional team members.

A large business may have some or all of the following positions.

Top Management Positions

1. Chief Executive Officer (CEO) or President -- This person will be the driving

force behind the company; he or she will make things happen, put together the

resources to support the company and take the product to the market place.

2. Chief Operating Officer (COO), Whether called an organizer, an inside manager

or an operations person, this person is the one who will make sure company

operations flow smoothly and economically. He or she is responsible for making

certain that necessary work is done properly and on time. An understanding of

details of the business and an enjoyment of handling details are necessary.

11
3. Marketing Manager -- Few businesses can be successful without marketing their

products to the customer. The individual in this slot must have both marketing and

industry experience.

4. Chief Financial Officer (CFO) You may wish to establish two positions or

combine both roles into one. The responsibility of one role is to seek money; that

is, to look for investors and deal with banks, lenders, etc. This function also could

be assigned to another team member, such as the CEO or the General Manager.

The responsibility in the Controller role is to manage money and watch over the

assets of the company. It is not uncommon to have the same individual seek

money and manage money.

5. Production Manager -- Good production managers with specific industry

knowledge and experience are sometimes difficult to find.

The term “Levels of Management’ refers to a line of demarcation between various

managerial positions in an organization. The number of levels in management increases

when the size of the business and work force increases and vice versa. The level of

management determines a chain of command, the amount of authority & status enjoyed

by any managerial position. The levels of management can be classified in three broad

categories:

1. Top level / Administrative level

2. Middle level / Executors

3. Low level / Supervisory / Operative / First-line managers

12
Managers at all these levels perform different functions. The role of managers at all the

three levels is discussed below:

MIDDLE LEVEL MGMT

Comprises of managers who head specific departments (such

as accounting, marketing, production) or business units, or who serve as project

managers in flat organizations. Middle managers are responsible for implementing

the top management's policies and plans and typically have two management levels

below them. Usually among the first to be slashed in the 'resizing' of a firm, middle

management constitutes the thickest layer of managers in a traditional (tall pyramid

shaped) organization.

LOWER LEVEL MANAGEMENT

The organizational tier for supervisors positioned directly above non-

managerial employees. Lower management in a business generally oversees

the performance of employees working on line tasks in managerial positions such

as foreman, line boss, shift boss, section chief, head nurse or sergeant.

Also called supervisory personnel or first level managers.

CHAPTER-4: FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS OF THE COMPANY

4.1. DATA ANALYSIS

This section of the chapter 4 of the project consists of the analysis of the data collected

and presented by the trainee on the topic of the project- Job Satisfaction in Pioneer

eSolutions Private Limited.

The data has been collected on the tasks done by different functional areas of the

company, i.e. in Business Development, Human Resources, Accounts, Operations and

Information Technology.

The data has also been collected to study the level of job satisfaction of the employees

working in the Company through the use of a questionnaire framed on Likert Five Point

Scale.

The sample size taken for the research is 25. Thus, the questionnaire was filled up by 25

employees of different departments of the Company.

The analysis of the data collected and presented through pie charts in the chapter 3 is as

follows-

1. Out of the 25 employees of the Company more than half of the employees belong

to the age group of 20-30 and the remaining employees belong to the age group of

30-40.

2. Almost all the employees of the Company have completed their post graduation

except the few ones who are either pursuing their post graduation or have only

done their graduation.

3. The ratio of male and female employees of the Company is 5:3.

43
4. The key functional areas of the Company are Business Development, Human

resources, Accounts, Operations and Information technology.

5. All the employees of the Company agree that they feel encouraged to come up

with new and better ways of doing things, i.e. they are keen on adopting new and

innovative ideas of doing their work so that their work does not become

monotonous and leads to boredom. Also, if the company goes along with the

concept of change and innovation in its technology, HR practices and strategies

and brings change in the workplace in a positive manner then people will not

resist to changes as they will understand that the change is for their betterment.

This mutual co-operation between the Company and its employees leads to job

satisfaction among the employees of the company.

6. Majority of employees agree that their work gives them a feeling of personal

accomplishment. And if this is the case, it indicates that the employees are

satisfied with their work and are able to cope up with work stress thus, leading to

job satisfaction among the employees of the Company.

7. Majority of employees of the Company agreed that they have required tools and

resources to do their job well except the few employees who gave neutral

response which indicates that some employees of the Company might not be

satisfied with the work related facilities provided to them by the Company or

might not be having adequate amount of resources to perform their task well.

Provision of at least basic work related facilities to the employees is a must to be

followed by the Companies so that they can perform their work properly and

produce good results of their work to the Management. Provision of work related

44
facilities to the employees by the Company is a must and affects the job

satisfaction level of the employees.

8. Employees of the Company must be well aware of the Company’s vision and

mission. If the employees are well informed about their job description as per the

goals and objectives of the Company then the employees will be able to perform

better as they would be clear of their work-related goals and will determine on

their own in what ways is their performance going to affect the Company and

their level of job satisfaction in the long run. As per the analysis on the data

presented, maximum employees of the Company feel that they have clearly

defined quality goals to perform their roles and responsibilities well.

9. According to the data presented, many of the employees of the Company feel that

their Company does an excellent job of keeping its employees informed about the

matters affecting them. The ratio of the employees opinion on the same is 3:1, i.e.

majority of employees feel that they are being informed about the matters

affecting them by the Company and in concern with the rest of the employees

who gave neutral responses, the Company should improve its communication

process and take steps to inform their employees about the matters relating and

affecting to them which will help them to perform better and will increase their

level of job satisfaction.

10. Employees of the Company agree that they are able to correct the problem up to

their client’s satisfaction, when their clients are dissatisfied which increases their

level of job satisfaction and motivation as well. The clients of the Company are

NIC and Government Ministries.

45
11. Employees of the Company understand that it is important for the Company to

value diversity in their workplace as the employees working in the Company

differ in their age, gender, race, culture, etc. In every workplace across the nation,

people have are different with each other in one or the other aspect. Especially if

we talk about India, people here belong to different states and regions possessing

different culture, background, experiences, values, etc, thus, these factors need to

be considered by the Companies when dealing with their manpower so that they

do not feel offended by the Company on any of the above mentioned grounds.

12. A job with such job description where employees are able to show their skills and

abilities to the Company increases the motivation level of the employees as they

feel that their knowledge and skills are of use and relevance to the Company and

the Company values their potential to work effectively and efficiently. Making use

of one’s skills in performing the tasks efficiently is one of the factors which

motivates employees and leads to job satisfaction among them. Thus, many

employees of the Company feel that their job makes good use of their skills and

abilities except the few who needs to be given more challenging tasks so that they

become satisfied with their work and do not leave the Company.

13. Employees of the company feel that they are informed by the Management about

the activities going on in the Company so that they know what is to be done by

them and do not feel alienated from the Management of the Company. this feeling

of belongingness makes them feel attached to their Company and they perform

well understanding that their work is directly or indirectly going to affect the

performance of the Company in a positive or a negative manner.

46
14. As mentioned in the above analysis, many employees of the Company feel that

their Company does an excellent job of keeping its employees informed about the

matters affecting them. The level of satisfaction of the employees of the Company

with the level of their involvement in the decisions that affect their work also

affects their level of job satisfaction in the Company as they are the ones who

have to do their part of job and they have the right to speak for their rights. Both

the points are inter-related and fulfillment of both of them will increase the level

of job satisfaction of the employees of the Company.

15. The ratio of the satisfaction level of the employees of the Company in context

with their opportunity to get a career advancement option available in their

present Company is 3:2. Employees usually look for more challenging work

related activities so that they can wider their scope of career advancement and

enhance their performance in the Company. They either look for increments in

their salary or promotions. Thus, the Company should provide its capable

employees with career advancement opportunities so that it increases their

motivation level and sense of responsibility to do their work better. This leads to

job satisfaction among the employees of the company.

by providing them with more challenging jobs to enhance their skills and knowledge and

provide them the opportunity to show their hidden caliber.

2. The job related facilities provided to the employees should be improved so that their

work is not hampered and for those who do not feel satisfied with the tools and resources

provided to them, the Company needs to identify and fulfill their wants because if the

employees are satisfied only then they will be able to put in their hard work and best

efforts to accomplish their assigned task and goals.

3. The communication process should be improved as there are few employees who feel

that the Company does an average job of keeping its employees informed about the

matters affecting them and their communication flow should be improved so that the

employees are aware of the matters affecting them.

4. The level of involvement of the employees in the decisions that affect their work

should be increased as they have the right to ask for their necessary work-related

requirements from the Company.

5. The career advancement opportunities of the employees in the Company should be

enhanced so that the employees do not become job hoppers as a result of job

dissatisfaction.

If the employees feel that they do not have any further growth prospects in their present

56
will provide them career growth opportunities in future, thus, increasing their job

satisfaction level from the new job.
