Page 1 of 4 Assignment
You are working as a business consultant and your office is located in Gulberg, Lahore. One day
your friend Mr. Akhtar working in an auto rickshaw manufacturing firm, came to meet you and
started talking on an issue he is facing.
Akhtar: I am not satisfied with my job as I do not see further growth in my job.
You: You are an R & D manager and still you are not satisfied with your job! I think it is your
interest to work in an R & D department where you can conduct research on your own
innovative ideas and develop unique products related to auto industry which give benefits to your
firm. Secondly, you have degrees in mechanical engineering and MBA then this firm suits you as
per my observation.
Akhtar: Yes, you are right but I have now plenty of experience of my current job and took my
firm at the leading position in the market by working on different innovative ideas so, I don’t
think that any learning is left on my part.
You: My dear, current environment is very hostile so I don’t advise you to leave your job until
you have some contingency plan.
You: Then why are you going to make your life difficult? You are the bread earner of your
family and your family depends on you.
Akhtar: Yes, and this thing compels me to do job and nothing else. You: Well, I have some good
option for you if you are interested?
Akhtar: That sounds good but I don’t have experience of any type of business and it seems risky
to start business without any experience.
