KUNDIMAN COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION:

Mr. Lonely 
The Kundiman Communications Corporation (KCC) is a local company with more than 2,000
persons in its payroll. The company's top management is composed of the President, the Vice
President for Marketing, the Vice President for Operations, and the Vice President for
Administration.

A member of the staff, Engineer Lorenzo de Guzman, an electronics engineering graduate, has
just received an order from his immediate superior, the VP for Operations, to head the newly
built telecommunication facility in Antipolo, Rizal. So far, he is the only company personnel
identified with the new facility. He was given three months to make the facility operational.

Engineer de Guzman appraised that for the Antipolo unit to operate, it will require the services of
a number of persons skilled in the various activities that will be undertaken.

As he has been working with KCC for ten years (five years in the field and five years in the head
office), Engineer de Guzman is familiar with many aspects of the firm's operation. Some of the
supervisors and three of the key officers are his friends.

Engineer de Guzman felt that the various trainings KCC provided him had really prepared him
well for the technical aspects of his new job. His exposure to the different units at the head office
will also be useful in some ways to the administrative aspects of his position. However, his
trainings and experiences have not provided him with the expertise to recruit qualified persons to
occupy the various positions that will be created. To begin with, he does not even have
information on the number and nature of the positions to be created

As he was inspecting the building in Antipolo where he will hold office, Engineer de Guzman
wondered if he could convince top management to transfer some of his acquaintances in the head
office to his new assignment.

Engineer de Guzman knows that his next promotion will depend much in the success of the new
facility under his direction. He thought that if he could only get the right persons, his job would
not be too difficult. With this in mind, he pondered on what his first move must be.
Your Answer here:

Engineer Lorenzo de Guzman really needs to think systematically and plan what could
be the best possible solution. First, Engineer de Guzman should ask some help coming from
employment management part of their company for him to hire legitimate and functional
group of people to help him out on the new facility. Second, spread the work to each
specialization of every individual and Engineer de Guzman should supervise them in early
part of operation. Third, Engineer de Guzman and the newly hired employees should be as
one functional machine for them to be successful and everything as plan will follow like the
promotion. Lastly, company is not just a one man show and Engineer de Guzman should keep
it on mind.
