Thats It!

Industrialist Jeyapal had his brows frowned. He was deeply concerned, which itself was rare. One of his most profitable plants had been the cause. There were many problems there, right from manufacturing goof-ups to labour issues to even local political threats. With the power and influence he had, he thought that they were nothing. But things moved in a different direction which he too did not expect.

They were expanding their manufacturing unit and got all the approvals and lands necessary. Only that a local outfit started spreading a false news that they had actually bought cultivable lands at first and then, accusing that they paid too less an amount for each acre, later. Besides, the plant itself was not fully operational, due to lack of raw materials [logistics issue] as well as labour strikes for increased wages per day. His 'right arm man' Sundaram was not able to handle things there. Just then, he was reviewing the profile of an ace management consultant, Parasuraman. Parasuraman had vast experience in many domains and had been fairly successful.

Given the opportunity, he grabbed it with both hands and went about working on it, on one condition - that he should be given a free hand in managing them. One by one, he fixed the issues, by various ways, some as per the book and some otherwise. After 8 long months, the plant started functioning. Within a week, Parasuraman sacked Sundaram. Knowing this, Jeyapal was agitated and shouted over the phone to Parasuraman, asking him to come to his office.

All he got was a resignation letter, a bunch of documents and a short note which just read, "Sundaram was the prime culprit. Thanks for the opportunity."
