Read the case given below and answer the questions:
Having done well as a staff accountant in the accounts payable section of a major
industrial firm for several years since his graduation from college, Faisal felt that he had
learned much about the “ins” and “outs” of survival in an intensely bureaucratic
organization. It is thus not surprising that he was relaxed and unconcerned about his
circumstances at the company as he entered the employee lounge to attend the lateafternoon welcoming reception for his new supervisor.
The new manager of accounts payable, Amina, had been transferred to Faisal’s division
from a similar position in another subsidiary of the company because of her proven talent
for organizing and improving the efficiency of operations there. A no-nonsense type of
manager, Amina was experienced and determined to perform her new assignment with
the same vigour that had brought her so much success throughout her career.
At the reception, Amina circulated through the room, introducing herself to her new
subordinates and asking each of them if they had any suggestions that would help make
the payables section a better place to work. When she approached Faisal, he told her
about something that had been on his mind lately: that people seemed to him to gain
promotions and be given opportunities to work overtime based on who liked them, and
not on the quality of their work. In reply, Amina politely stated that she would do
everything that she could to see that whatever it was he was referring to would have no
place in the team she would lead.

Upon his arrival at work the next day, Faisal received a phone call from Amina’s
secretary asking that he meet with his new boss later that morning. He had barely
entered her office for the meeting when she looked him straight in the eye and said, “I
will not tolerate individuals in this organization who are not good team players.
Yesterday afternoon you led me to believe that there are people in this office who are not
acting in the best interests of the company, and I want to know who. I want you to tell me
the names of the managers you were referring to note and keep me informed if you see
anyone hurting this company, or I’ve got to think that maybe you are part of the problems
around here.” Stunned by both the tone and content of her statement, Faisal quickly tried
to think of a way to respond.
