a. Company ‘R’ employs managers believes in Theory X. Sound / valid logics to this choice are:-

(1) Work/ activities of the people is being very closely controlled/ monitored by appointing at least one supervisor at each office.

(2) The people/ worker are not trustworthy and uncooperative, therefore not only the work target is set on daily basis but also the proper record of their completed work is maintained on daily basis.

(3) As in Theory X people are irresponsible and untrustworthy, that is why the manager (X-Type) of company ‘R’ have broken down the process / task into different tasks and have then been assigned to individual employees to complete.

b. Company ‘S’ employs managers believes in Theory Y. The sound / valid logics for the choice are as under:-

(1) As in Theory Y, managers thinks that people are naturally responsible, growth oriented and self motivated, therefore, instead of appointing one dedicated supervisor at each office, only few group supervisors have been nominated. Their job is to help the other staff in case of any barriers/ problem occurs due to more burden of work.

(2) The works are always interested in being productive and self motivated, therefore, as per their capabilities the employees are encouraged to complete what they can do at the best of their abilities.

(3) Managers of Company ‘S’ (Y- Type manager) always have confidence in their people who are cooperative and growth oriented. That is why if the employees require more time to complete a particular work then they are granted extra time.

(4) Company ‘S’ managers (Y-Type) believes that their workers are growth orientated and capable and therefore, they are told the complete / whole task at once instead of broken down into sub-tasks.
