Mr Sandhu worked as a manager in a company manufacturing stationery items for 10 years. Later he thought of starting his own business as he acquired the skills and expertise in past years. He started his own venture. He divides the organisation into six major departments Production, Purchase, Marketing, Legal, Human resource and Finance. After a month, he called upon the meeting of all the department heads in his office and told and production marketing and finance department managers to be very vigilant as their departments are critical to the success of the business.
