Answer to the Question No. 1
Helen Bower’s new plan isn’t deemed to be much successful. Helen doesn’t consider
her employees more just than workers. Due to this approach of hers, she hasn’t been
able to negotiate with her employees in the right manner to get efficient performance.
Even the consultant appointed by her is concerned about her approach and advices her
to employ the same methods of dealing with employees, as her father did in the past.

Even then, she fails to understand and accept this and decides to make a new plan that,
any worker who fails to improve productivity by 10% will have to face an equal pay cut.
This new plan of Helen isn’t going to help or solve the situation anyhow and would only
lead to resentment amongst the employees. These employees won’t be at all happy
with this decision as they are expected to do more strenuous hard work even though
nothing is being done for their welfare and improvement in their working condition;
rather all their benefits are being actually curtailed.

As a result, the overall productivity would suffer and Bower’s Co. would be unable to
compete with the Japanese firms.

Answer to the Question No. 2


The biggest challenge that Helen faces is to retain the support from her employees.
Helen’s approach of considering her employees as just ‘Hire Help’ isn’t paying her well
as all the policies she creates go against the welfare of her employees and thus, the
productivity of the organization is getting compromised. If the employees aren’t look
after, they would feel alienated which would ultimately lead to lower levels of
productivity and thus, Helen would find it difficult to cope up from the external
competition from Japanese firms and thus, the business won’t be able to sustain for
long.
Answer to the Question No: 3
If I were Helen’s consultant, I would make her realize the gravity of the situation which is
more alarming than what she might be expecting. I’ll try making her realize the
repercussions of her policies which are in complete contrast to the welfare of her
employees. I’ll advise her to change her approach towards more liberal methods which
focus on the welfare of her employees. Also, I’ll recommend her to apply the same
techniques which her father applied and make her understand the importance of
maintaining cordial relations with the workers and how it would help the Bower’s Co.
