Story
Sohan is an engineer who was appointed as a project engineer in a consulting firm. The company was
not doing that well and the project that was assigned to Sohan was crucial for the survival of the
company. On assuming charge, Sohan made a detailed plan and discussed it with his core team of
three others. What I saw in the picture was that Sohan is in some serious discussions with his co-
workers and resolving all the differences through his logical arguments. This approach of Sohan was
liked by every one in the organization and the team started functioning in a very cohesive manner.
This resulted in successful execution of the project and the company gradually came out of financial
difficulties. The outstanding leadership shown by Sohan was appreciated by the company’s top
management and he was promoted to a higher position.
Note: The above story has three parts. The past: The company where Sohan has been appointed is
not doing well and was in urgent need of a good and committed professional to execute a
crucial project. Sohan, the main character of the story, was appointed to head the project. The
present: Sohan is discussing all the details of the project with his team, takes them into
confidence and his style of functioning is appreciated by the co-workers. This leads them to
work in a better way and successful execution of the project. The future: Sohan’s leadership
pulls the company out of financial trouble and his efforts are appreciated by the top
management and he gets a promotion.
