Recall the Augmented Reality Exercise System (ARES) scenario: Scott Essex sat at his desk looking through the roster of employees he managed. As he flipped through the pages, he felt a sinking feeling in his stomach. Upper management had directed him to cut his team of software developers by nearly 75 percent. This directive came as a result of a recent initiative to reduce costs by outsourcing IT department projects. As he flipped back and forth between the pages, Scott didn't know how to identify which employees to retain and which employees to let go. All the employees brought value to the team—if they didn't, Scott wouldn't have hired them in the first place.
Scott flipped to the beginning of the roster and started putting stars next to the names of employees he would consider letting go. Some had worked for the company for many years. But, in spite of their time on the job, they honestly didn't add as much value as they should relative to their pay. Conversely, there were more recent hires who had tremendous potential and were low-cost relative to other employees. Scott paused and looked up from the roster—he wasn't sure how he was going to look these people in the eye when he told them the bad news. But he would have to do it. It was part of his job.
Then it got worse. Scott's boss sent him a portfolio of new development projects that had to be completed in the next 3 to 6 months. How could upper management expect the usual turnaround time for these projects when 75 percent of his staff was going to be replaced with new outsourced employees—working on the other side of the planet? These new employees would know nothing about the "vibe" of his team or the intangibles that made the team run smoothly. Letting employees go was one thing. But if he didn't get these projects completed on time, his own position could be in jeopardy.
As the manager of this project, would you approve the decision to use an offshore contractor to outsource the development of AR headset applications? Why, or why not?
