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.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
