, 1.
The major problem for HGC is asset management and the absence of a strategy to
deliver the business goals. The long-term objectives and goals are well defined, but the
company lacks a plan to accomplish them. Top managers have failed to adjust their
thinking and strategy to fit the new business needs, including increased project budgets.
As the business grows, asset management needs to be adapted to ensure that they
meet the demands of the different departments in the organization.
Another problem is the lack of proper project management and supervision, which have
resulted in wrong budget projections and inaccurate timelines. The business needs close
supervision of the projects to ensure that only those that meet the criteria for proper
project management get approved. The employees in the company require training in
project management to ensure that the projects meet their deadlines and that their
budgeting is accurate.
The employees seem to compete with one another, and there is a need to ensure that
the company fosters teamwork and celebrates group success other than encouraging
individual success. The projects should be allocated to several people to ensure that
collaborative efforts are put into completing the projects to enhance performance.
Unity and collaborative efforts should be fostered in the business now that it plans to
bring in 15 more employees. Creating a healthy working environment will result in
employees' loyalty to the business, and the company will no longer have to worry about
losing its best talents to its competitors.
