Minpunten
- Main problem lies with the CEO, who creates a state of perpetual chaos. He displayes poor understanding of the company's real challenges and tends to prioritise unimportant details over critical issues. He places little to no trust in most employees, including subject matter experts and department heads, resulting in micromanagement, and rash and uninformed decision-making. At the same time, there is favouritism towards a few select people, whose opinions are followed unquestioningly. The CEO never admits, or even recognises, his own mistakes and always finds scapegoats for any major issues that crop up due to poor leadership. - Overall strategy changes every three months and previous strategy becomes obsolete before there is time to determine whether it was actually effective or not. Goals set are often unrealistic and policies are not followed through. - Company is small (20 people) and lacks resources, but management attempts to compete head-on with much larger companies with thousands of employees. This usually results in overworked employees who are blamed for not reaching the unrealistic goals set to them. It also results in low employee morale and high turnover.
