Instruction: read the following case carefully and provide adequate analysis by addressing the questions provided at the end.
The case:
You used to be the star marketing manager for Hilton Electronics Corporation. However, for the past year, you have been out-paced again and again by Jason, a new manager in the design department, who has been accomplishing everything expected of him and more. Meanwhile your best efforts to do your job well have been sabotaged and undercut by Maria-your and Jason's manager. For example, prior to last year's international consumer electronics show, Maria moved $60,000 from your budget to Jason's despite your best efforts, your marketing team could not complete all the marketing materials normally developed to showcase all of your organization's new products at this important industry show. And Maria has chipped away at your staff and budget ever since. Although you have been able to meet most of your goals with less staff and budget, Maria has continued to slice away resources from your group. Just last week, she eliminated two positions in your team of eight marketing specialists to make room for a new designer and some extra equipment for Jason. Maria is clearly taking away your resources while giving Jason whatever he wants and more. You think it is time to do something or soon you will not have any team or resources left.
Discussion question 1: From the two competing managers, you and Jason, who do you think was effective and who was efficient?
Discussion question 2: What skills might be necessary for you to convince Maria that you are still important to the organization?
