Read the following scenario and answer the three questions that follow.
Himaja was among the top ten students of her Business Management batch. She got placed in a reputed strategy consulting firm during campus placements. She was delighted to work under Nirmal, her superior, who was known for grooming many stars in the organisation. Nevertheless, he was also regarded as a hard taskmaster. Though she was a fresh recruit, she longed to be in a client-facing role.
Due to her constant pleading, Nirmal assigned Himaja a client-facing role in his project. Nirmal instructed her that he would do all the talking during meetings, and she would diligently listen and take notes. However, in the first meeting, Himaja made a comment which contradicted Nirmal. In the next, she interrupted the client while he was making a point. This offended the client, resulting in Nirmal apologising to the client to save the project.
Which of the following is the MOST appropriate action that Nirmal should take against Himaja’s behaviour?
Since Himaja is a fresh recruit so she is in a learning phase and even though she has made a few mistakes but still Nirmal should not be rude or harsh to her. So option B, C and D can be eliminated. Now between option A and E, option A is a better choice as Nirmal should is just warning her so that she be careful in the future meeting while Option E says that Nirmal is blaming Himaja for the situation she has put him in.
