Introduction by Natalia Jiménez
The purpose of this document is to address the situation of the company generated in
Google when Sundar Pichai was CEO, through the research of a bibliography related to
leadership that supports the answers to the different questions required.
In general, it is important to know that the results of the multilevel analysis reveal that only
differences in transformational and transactional leadership styles, as well as the size of the
work team, are connected to the performance of the workforce. (Vignoli, 2018). In the case
of a company like google, the size of the teams is very large, however in the results of the
graphs of the case study, over the years can be evidenced by excellent management,
continuous improvement, and focus on the result. This can be taken as a success story in
managing Google administrators.
On the other hand, there is a connection between the resistance of the leaders and the
intentions to oppose the change was reduced by the characteristics of transformational
leadership of the followers. (Oreg, 2011). From that perspective, the personal qualities of
leaders and transformational leadership practices could help explain why people want to
oppose meaningful organizational change. In that order of ideas, Google might have
experienced this kind of behavior for some employees during leadership changes.
For the analysis to be made, it can be taken into account that studies show that leaders who
adopt participatory and transformative leadership are more likely to foster a motivating
environment among their workforce. Employees can usually choose transformational rather
than transactional leadership. Managers who want to be more effective should encourage,

help and improve the skills of their staff. (Alghazo, 2016). With this, a good path to take for
a leader is there as a key factor of success when leading teams is to have motivational tools.
Supporting the above, a study examined the impacts of job motivation, leadership style, and
competence on job satisfaction, as well as the effects of these factors on performance, the
effects of job satisfaction on performance, and the effects of these factors on performance
through job satisfaction. The results showed that job satisfaction is negatively and
significantly affected by job motivation. (Hajiali et. al., 2022). So, if you want to prevent an
employee from quitting, he must really feel motivated.

Answer to question number 1 by Natalia Jiménez
It is a worrying factor that an important group of executives leaves a company and even
more so that one of the reasons is the style of leadership according to the case study, it may
have been related to the management of Should Pichai.
Then the possible reasons that could have generated a massive defection of the managers of
the subsidiary of the company Google, Alphabet are abhorred:
Communication management Studies analyze leadership style and communication skills, finding that they may affect
employee job satisfaction and communication, supported in a significant correlation
between the task of supervisors and relational leadership styles and their communicator
competence, resulting in a connection between leadership, communication, and employee
satisfaction with work and communication. (Madlock, 2008 An internal communication
strategy could be a good way to approach the Pichai team towards the team of directors
who are thinking of quitting the company, sharing tools that they can use to make
suggestions about opportunities to improve leadership style or some gaps that Pichai needs
to work on, could prevent similar future situations.
6
Lack of autonomy and engagement
With a transactional leadership style, employees are not even granted freedom, but rewards
are a source of motivation for them. The transactional leadership style is successful because
it makes people happy to work for the company and because employee satisfaction is
crucial in customer service centers. A transformative leadership style is more adaptable and
encourages individual autonomy and innovation, employee performance improves, and a
transformative leadership style improves employee performance. (Hafeez, et. al., 2012).
According to the above, a style transformative is a good option for Pichai to create an
atmosphere related to autonomy that is exposed in the study case some directors feel that
need more and less bureaucracy.
On the other hand, when investigating the factors that affect employee engagement,
particularly the role that leadership style plays. The results show that employee engagement
and leadership styles have important correlations. It is important that the company achieves
the commitment of employees, as well as the impact that leadership styles because they
have a close relationship in the creation of work culture (Popli, 2016). So, for the case
study, it is important to highlight that if the employee has lost commitment to the company,
effective HR procedures and proper leadership philosophies in Google are required to
increase participation, sense of belonging, and reviewing leadership style because it can
affect these factors exposed in employees.
Likewise, studies support that managers who tend to lead in a participatory manner,
workers expressed more happiness with criteria that include the nature of the work, co-

7
workers, and the type of supervision, while showing less satisfaction with wages, benefits,
working conditions, progress and communication (Rad, 2006). Therefore, the importance of
the directors who took the decision to leave the company is highlighted, they are marked by
the need to participate, for example in making decisions in the company. In the case study,
it is mentioned that the purchase of companies such as Spotify and Twitter was suggested,
however, these proposed strategies were not accepted, a fact that could have had
repercussions on the subsequent events.
Feedback
Studies conclude that there is a need to place equal value on leadership and monitoring. It
serves as a reminder of the enormous responsibility that all leaders, including those deemed
effective, have as a tool to reduce staff turnover. This is because the impact of leadership
style on employee turnover is caused not only by poor leadership but also by good
leadership that has blind spots when considering its own leadership style. (Alkhawaja,
2017). Thus, proper feed back in both directions can mitigate the shortcomings in the
leadership style I have the leader and both employees and leaders will know in what to
work to improve.
The idea of evaluating how employees feel about their managers and supervisors and how it
affected how they felt about organizational policy, results that confirm that organizational
policy plays an important role in how people perceive their work. (Ram, 2010). Perhaps
this strategy of knowing in time how employees felt and taking action in time could have
prevented the resignation of a group of managers in the company. This is very important
8
because the impact on the company of this situation affects several aspects, such as
organizational culture, the costs associated with training high-level profiles, costs of hiring
processes for new managers and the time it takes to achieve synergy in the operation with
what was previously expected is relevant to be taken into account within the consequences
of the facts.
Motivation
Supported by a study, job satisfaction was significantly influenced by leader satisfaction.
Due to the lack of strong intrinsic motivation, it is expected that the happiness of the
employees' work may decrease before the satisfaction of the leadership. (Mardanov, et al.
2008). According to the above, it is important that the employee’s motivation level is
monitored to predict dissections. Programs aimed at maintaining employee motivation and
identifying factors by which employees may experience demotivation may be another
strategy to consider.
Likewise, a study supports the idea that effective leadership influences the performance of
workers. Employee involvement, on the other hand, acts as a mediator in the interaction
between factors. This connection suggests that transformative leaders foster productive
habits within their workforce, motivating them to perform well. In addition,
transformational leadership practices motivate and inspire workers to go further for the
benefit of the company. According to the results of the study, employee engagement
strategies have a favorable impact on the performance of the organization’s employees.
9
Therefore, leaders who act in a way that helps followers grow could anticipate gaining
followers who exhibit a higher degree of participation. Employees who are very committed
to time provide excellent results. (Al-Amin, 2017). Thus, a motivational factor that can be
taken into account is the participation of managers in the decision-making of the company
so that they are given the opportunity to participate in the development of senior
management strategies as a contribution to business creation, in the case study could
generate a different scenario.
Each organization will inevitably experience disagreement. To establish strong
relationships with subordinates, leaders must comprehend and put into practice a variety of
conflict management techniques and dispute resolution philosophies. Unresolved
disagreement may have negative repercussions for an organization's success. So, leaders
must learn how to approach and manage conflicts depending on the circumstances and the
parties involved. Conflicts at work may lead to absenteeism and have an impact on
employee loyalty. (Lim, 2012). The effect of the desertion of Employees on Google.

Answer to questions number 2 and 3 by Liza Lutfun
Leadership styles relate to specific behavior and will be influenced by the leader’s
aims and personality as well as their relationship and interaction with the team (Simpson,
2013). With Google during enormous expansion and transition, Sunder Pichai is primarily
regarded as a strategic leader. His focus on innovation and customer-centricity, as well as
his ability to balance immediate objectives and long-term vision, have won him
recognition. Pichai is also known for being a capable and influential leader who uplifts and
encourages his team to accomplish great things. The significance of individual
characteristics and personality features in developing leadership skills has been highlighted
by a recent study on leadership. A recent study has highlighted the role of personality in
influencing leadership style and effectiveness, in contrast to older ideas that placed more
emphasis on pinpointing specific behaviors and acts that characterize a good leader.
Google
has now embraced Mr. Pichai's dedication to unwavering ethics due to his impressive
display of restraint. Work has consequently grown more demanding, concentrated, and
disciplined among employees (Ghoshal, 2022).
James Burns stated that “leaders and followers help each other to advance to a
higher level of moral and motivation” is transformational leadership (Simpson, 2013). The
term "charismatic leadership" describes a leader's ability to inspire and encourage people
via their personal qualities and attributes. These leaders can inspire a sense of commitment
and shared purpose among their followers by living up to their organization's values and
principles, boosting motivation and productivity. The technology sector regards Sundar
Pichai as a revolutionary leader. He serves as the CEO of Alphabet Inc., which owns
11
Google. Pichai has won praise for his leadership approach, which strongly emphasizes
giving people autonomy and cultivating an innovative culture. Pichai has shown his
dedication to employee empowerment, among other things, by decentralizing decision-
making and giving subordinate managers more control. This strategy has been linked to
increased staff productivity and job satisfaction. Sundar Pichai's management style has been said to have fueled innovation and
expansion at Google and Alphabet. His focus on employee empowerment and encouraging
an innovative culture has contributed to developing a highly engaged and motivated staff.
One of the four elements of transformational leadership, which is a leadership style
characterized by the leader's capacity to inspire and drive their subordinates to realize their
full potential, is idealized influence. The admiration, respect, and trust followers have for
their leader is called idealized influence. Idealized influence is exhibited by
transformational leaders who can inspire their followers and establish a bond of trust and
fidelity with them. As it forges a deep bond between the leader and their followers, this
element of transformational leadership is frequently viewed as the cornerstone of the other
elements. Sundar Pichai's leadership style has received accolades for emphasizing
employee empowerment and fostering a supportive workplace environment. Pichai has
created a culture of trust and respect within his company by providing his staff with the
tools and resources required to thrive. Higher levels of staff productivity and job satisfaction have been linked to this
leadership style and various other advantages. Employee engagement and willingness to go
above and beyond in achieving organizational objectives are more likely when they
perceive their leaders to value and support them.
12
Also, Pichai's team members firmly believe in the company's mission, which has aided
in forging a sense of direction and purpose. Team members may be more motivated and
committed when leaders can successfully convey their vision and motivate workers to
strive towards a common objective. Sundar Pichai's leadership style seems to be very
successful in fostering a pleasant workplace culture and generating organizational success.
He has successfully built a highly motivated and effective team dedicated to accomplishing
the company's goals by empowering his employees and encouraging a culture of trust and
respect.
His approach to product development is just one of the prime instances of Sundar
Pichai's collaborative leadership style. Pichai pushes his staff to come up with fresh
concepts and solutions rather than depending entirely on his own ideas. He is a firm
believer in equipping his staff with the tools they require for success. For instance, Sundar
Pichai didn't merely hand his team a set of specifications and tell them to get to work when
Google decided to create a new messaging app. Instead, he urged his team to collaborate
and develop a concept for what the app might be. Pichai then gave his group the tools they
required to make that idea a reality. His emphasis on inclusiveness and diversity is another
aspect of Pichai's transformative leadership style. He has prioritized increasing diversity at
Google and Alphabet and has taken action to foster a more welcoming workplace
environment. For instance, he has introduced efforts to help underrepresented groups in
technology and given employees training on unconscious prejudice (Kushan, 2023).
Sundar Pichai is an excellent illustration of how collaboration can be a potent
instrument for success. He leads collaboratively. As a result of his emphasis on
collaboration, diversity, and inclusion, Google has been able to develop ground-breaking

13
technologies that benefit society as a whole and has been able to foster a healthy and
inclusive workplace atmosphere.
Should Pichai operate and innovate at both Alphabet and Google:
As Alphabet's head, Sundar Pichai has other roles in addition to day-to-day
management of Google, including overseeing the company's "Other Gambling" division,
which spans futuristic initiatives like self-driving cars, Internet balloons and science. life
research. He also has a responsibility to find a balance between the interests of Google's
many stakeholders, which include workers, advertisers, regulators and users. In this essay, I
will argue that Pichai should continue to operate and develop at both Alphabet and Google,
where working at both companies allows him to use the strengths of both organizations and
create new opportunities for growth.
The main reasons why I think he should continue in his position are:
The continuous improvement between companies, since I consider that since Google shares
the information with Alphabet it has fully benefited, since it is well known that to have
autonomous vehicles it is completely dependent on artificial intelligence and automation,
which is provided by Google. Achieving as a result that both companies can achieve new
and better discoveries, since one challenges the other and achieves true continuous
improvement.
Develop synergies that drive the growth and innovation of both companies, for example,
Google search data can be used to inform the Alphabet health study because it contains a
large amount of information about the concerns and behaviors of people's health. Similarly,
Alphabet's investment in renewable energy technology can help Google reduce its carbon
14
footprint and position the company as a leader in environmentally friendly business
practices. Pichai can help Alphabet and Google unlock new sources of value by identifying
these areas of overlap and leveraging them to develop new products and services.
Finally, I believe that by continuing to work in this way, you can develop both a short- and
long-term vision in both companies, from a financial point of view and seek to solve the
needs of users.
Of course, there are risks involved with Pichai's dual role, especially in terms of potential
conflicts of interest and favoritism toward Google. As Alphabet's CEO, Pichai is
responsible for ensuring that all of the company's companies are treated fairly and have
equal access to resources. If he shows too much favoritism to Google, it could undermine
trust within the company and lead to divisions. Furthermore, Pichai's concentration on
Google may limit his ability to lead Alphabet's Other Bets division, which necessitates a
different set of skills and expertise.
Pichai must be transparent about his decision-making processes and ensure that all
subsidiaries are given equal treatment when it comes to resource allocation and strategic
planning to mitigate these risks. He must also delegate authority to trusted managers within
each division and empower them to make choices that are consistent with Alphabet's
overall objectives. Pichai can guarantee that both Alphabet and Google thrive under his
leadership by adopting a collaborative and inclusive approach to management.
Finally, Pichai should continue to operate and innovate at both Alphabet and Google,
as his dual role allows him to leverage both organizations’ strengths and generate new
opportunities for growth. Pichai can help both businesses unlock new sources of value by
15
sharing resources and expertise, balancing short-term and long-term goals, and creating
synergies between subsidiaries.

Recommendations Based on the analysis given above, my recommendations for Sundar Pichai regarding
Alphabet and Google operations and innovation are as follows:
1. Streamline operations: Pichai should prioritize streamlining operations across
Alphabet and Google to increase efficiency, reduce redundancies, and cut expenses. This
can be accomplished by improving resource integration, sharing expertise and information,
and reducing duplication of effort by simplifying processes wherever possible which will
also lead to reduce complexity and increase efficiency. This would allow Alphabet and
Google to collaborate more efficiently and maximize their potential. 2.
Promote innovation at Google: Pichai should promote innovation at Google, which
is the company's main income generator. To accomplish this, he should foster an
environment of experimentation in which new ideas are welcomed and failure is viewed as
a chance to learn. This would enable Google to maintain its position as an industry leader
and remain ahead of its competitors. Added to this, user experience should remain to stay
as a top priority across all Google products, Pichai should ensure that the company is
continually looking for ways to improve and enhance the user experience
3. Prioritize Google Cloud investments: Google Cloud has the potential to become a
major revenue source for Alphabet. Pichai should prioritise investments in Google Cloud to
strengthen the company's market position and expand its market share. This can be
accomplished through collaborations, identify potential and strategic acquisitions to
evaluate the benefits and risk of each opportunity, and R&D expenditures.
17
4. Realign Other Bets: Pichai should assess Other Bets' performance and realign
companies that are not producing significant revenue or have limited growth potential. This
would enable Alphabet to concentrate its resources on businesses with greater growth
potential and higher returns on investment.
5.
Manage the graveyard: To prevent a loss of innovation and income streams, Pichai
should carefully manage the Google Product Graveyard. He should assess each product's
potential and consider the cost-benefit of discontinuing it. Pichai should make sure that
resources are allocated to more promising projects and that teams working on discontinued
goods are reassigned to new projects.
6. Promote openness: Pichai should promote transparency throughout Alphabet and
Google. Pichai should encourage open communication and feedback, so the employees
would be able to express their thoughts, opinions, and concerns without fear of retaliation.
Pichai should create regular communication channels with employees to keep them
informed of the company's objectives, performance, and strategic initiatives. This will also
reduce the perception that decisions are being made slowly and increase confidence in the
decision-making process.
7.
Effective talent management: Pichai must effectively manage talent across Alphabet
and Google to keep high-performing employees and attract new talent. This can be
accomplished through competitive pay packages; clear job development chances, so
collaborators can see that there are opportunities for career growth in the company by the
hand of continuous learning so the employees can feel encourage and supported to develop
and acquire new skills; recognize and reward high-performing employees and a positive
work environment.
18
8.
Teamwork and collaboration based on a better prioritisation: Sundar Pichai should
stablish clear priorities for both companies, Alphabet and Google, and ensure that all team
members understand them. This will foster a culture of collaboration and teamwork in the
company to assure that important decisions are made in an informed and careful manner
and also to be made in a more quickly in specific areas and reduce the need for all decisions
to be made at the executive level.
9.
Ethics and social responsibility: Pichai should ensure that Alphabet and Google are
ethical and socially responsible in all their operations, including data privacy, with growing
concerns about online privacy, it is important the Google stays at the forefront of this issue
and take adequate measures to protect user privacy and communicating the company’s
privacy policies and practices clearly. Also, the implementation of clear policies and
adoption of sustainable practices throughout the company is important.
Sundar Pichai faces a range of challenges and opportunities as CEO of Alphabet and
Google. To succeed he should prioritise streamlining operations across Alphabet and
Google in order to improve efficiency and reduce expenses. He should promote innovation
at Google, prioritise investments in Google Cloud, realign Other Bets, manage the Google
Product Graveyard, cultivate a transparent culture, and effectively manage talent. These
measures will allow Alphabet and Google to collaborate more efficiently, maximise their
potential and remain industry leaders.

Answer to question number 4 by Rodrigo Jasso
Pichai's leadership style emphasizes balancing risk and return. He has earned a
reputation for being willing to take calculated risks, carefully weighing the pros and
drawbacks of various scenarios, and adhering to the principle of data-driven decision-
making. Pichai has used this kind of decision-making in several high-profile circumstances.
It's vital to keep in mind that such acts might have big repercussions, even while some may
argue that Pichai should be more aggressive in taking chances and acting quickly. Google
and Alphabet will follow Pichai's leadership style to make strategic, long-lasting decisions
that are best for their users, staff, and shareholders.
Sharma and Writer (2019) claim that
"individuals' efficacy" in a range of mindsets, including communication, decision-making,
behaviour, and much more, can define a leading nation (Schmidt et al., 2019a).
By launching "Google Chrome" and making it a big success, Mr. Pichai showed his
perseverance. Two more of Pichai's important skills are cooperation. Individually
productive people make appropriate use of their own skills and techniques rather than waste
them (Carter, 2018)
. The effectiveness of Pichai's management style will ultimately depend
on several variables, including the market environment, the stakeholder needs of Google,
and Alphabet. As a result, it is up to Pichai to consider these issues and decide what is best
for the business. Even Google execs who disapproved of Pichai's management style could
recognize and respect his more sympathetic approach. They pointed out that since Pichai
became CEO, Google had expanded into a more prominent, more established company
with more discipline. Pichai's leadership style deviates from the conventional charismatic
and extroverted leadership model. For instance, the prevalent belief is that being
extroverted motivates leaders to complete tasks and fulfill their mission (
Management:
20
Leading & Collaborating in a Competitive World
, 2020). Pichai is known to exhibit
referent and expert authority in his argument. Siddharth Pichai, for example, is admired by
Google employees for his success, knowledge, vision, and humility on (Lebowitz, 2016).
His expert strength is further derived from his expert knowledge of the business and
technology of the corporation. He can persuade workers to support his ideas through his
expert power while giving them the freedom to contribute.
By giving his staff more freedom, Sundar Pichai has promoted the success of others,
which has been linked to increased output and job happiness. Also, his team members share
his vision, as seen by their tremendous regard and trust for him. However, taking on too
much risk and making decisions too quickly can also have drawbacks, such as making bad
choices that could cost the organization money or harm its reputation. As a result, it is
crucial to establish a balance between taking calculated risks and acting quickly while
carefully weighing all the facts and possible results. A thorough assessment of Kolb's traits
will be provided as a result of this investigation of "Kolb's reflective model." A person's
"personal efficacy" is, therefore, truly remarkable. Pichai supported the gradual
advancement of Google's exclusive goods.
Ultimately, Pichai's ability to take more calculated risks and act fast will depend on
Google's particular situation and position in the company. Before making any modifications
to his decision-making process, he must take into account several variables and balance the
advantages and disadvantages.
21
Conclusions Organizational engagement has a favorable impact on job satisfaction, which is related to
organizational engagement and leadership style and which by not achieving followers'
specifics, may generate the employee’s desire to leave the company.
Sundar Pichai should continue to operate and innovate at both Alphabet and Google. This is
because working at both companies allows him to leverage both organizations' strengths
and create new opportunities for growth. He can help both businesses unlock new sources
of value by sharing resources and expertise, balancing short-term and long-term goals, and
creating synergies between subsidiaries. However, there are also potential risks involved
with Pichai's dual role, such as conflicts of interest and favoritism towards Google. To
mitigate these risks, Pichai must be transparent about his decision-making processes and
ensure that all subsidiaries are given equal treatment when it comes to resource allocation
and strategic planning. He should also delegate authority to trusted managers within each
division and empower them to make choices that are consistent with Alphabet's overall
objectives. Overall, I recommend that Pichai streamline operations, promote innovation at
Google, prioritize Google Cloud investments, realign Other Bets, manage the Google
Product Graveyard, promote openness, and effectively manage talent across Alphabet and
Google.
