    HCF now is very confusing to make decision but based on the problems they have to make accurate decision. According to these problems they have to deeply make consideration of their short term and long terms decision. As far as I am concerned, the short term problem is HCF may lose their big major loyal customers which is Kiki and Houida. For long term, they may face a very big loss and no wonder if their company will go for bankruptcy as Kiki and Houida may become the benchmark for other customers that are rely on HCF’s company. Other customers may assume that HCF does not maintain its reputation and that is why Kiki and Houida are quit from keep doing “contract manufacture” with HCF. As it shows a bad benchmark to other customer, it may cause other customers quit from HCF.…

    My preferred style of leadership is to treat an organization as if it is a flowering plant; that is, provide support and nurturing from the top of the hierarchy all the way down to low-level managers and employees (“trickle-down” management, if you will.) This does not necessarily mean that I favor an authoritarian style of ruling, but rather that I believe a good manager should realize the impact of any single managerial action on each and every level of the organization. To provide some context, my mother grew her own tomato plants when I was in High School; she explained that you must constantly monitor and nurture each level of the plant in order for it to thrive as a whole. For example, you must always consider the appropriate height at which to suspend the lights above your plants: if they are too high, the lower layers of the plant won’t receive adequate light for necessary photosynthesis; if the lights are too low, however, the top layers of the plant will wither under the intensity. There are many other factors that must be considered before and during the growth process: what type and intensity of light bulb to use; which variety of soil or compost to utilize; which nutrients should be added at specific times to foster ideal growth conditions; what temperature should the water be as well as when & how often to water; what the costs are versus the benefits; and finally, should you utilize economies of scale by continuing to grow tomatoes after covering the costs of your first batch. Before I continue with this metaphor, I must emphasize that I am not a botanist nor do I have a degree in agriculture; regardless, the metaphor aptly relates to my style of leadership.…
