Answer to Question 1

Answer: He needs to make some organizational and personal changes to improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of his time. (See complete list in text; a partial list includes remedying the problems listed below.) Also necessary is a list of priorities and effective use of goals.

Span of control too wide No formalized reporting
Little delegation No supervisors over unit foremen
No planning time Office manager needs authority
Excessive plant tours Centralized decision making
Upward delegation No staff coordinating meeting

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Answers may include that he sincerely wants to help others (which can contribute to his failing to delegate matters), that he overestimates his ability to accomplish tasks at hand, that he gets easily distracted, that he tends to handle problems himself (upward delegation) instead of making people do their own job.
