A strategy of growth indicates growing sales, increasing demand, and expanding operations for the organization. When the organization is growing and expanding, it most likely needs to hire new employees in the future. In some cases, the organization may be able to hire employees readily without additional work. If, for example, a firm is currently receiving 100 qualified applicants per month but has only been hiring 5, the firm may be able to meet any targeted growth by simply hiring 10 people per month. In many ways, a stability strategy may be the easiest for the HR manager to implement because the organization presumably must do what it has been doing all along.

The plant was located in an industrial area that had several pipelines in the general geographic area including a crude oil pipeline leading to a refinery, and a pipeline carrying pesticides to be processed and redistributed to local farms in the area. In July 2014, Ajay Patel, the logistics general manager received notification that there were some minor leaks along the pipeline that were being fixed. Workers in the area had experienced sudden headaches and lightheadedness and the company immediately moved to investigate the leak and address faulty seams that had eroded and weakened. The flow of naphtha was temporarily stopped for 72 hours so two portions of the pipeline could be removed, and the eroded portions replaced. Patel put enormous pressure on the repair team to get the repair done quicker than the usual time…arrow_forwardPatel sat down with the head of public relations, the CEO, and a few Board members to weigh options. On the one hand, they knew there had already been problems along their pipeline causing health concerns a few months before. Apparently, there were substandard materials used in some of the pipeline sections that eroded which they had addressed quickly as soon as they knew there was an issue. This information was public and is one of the reasons why the media was jumping on the story. On the other hand, their pipeline was not the only one in the area. At least two other pipelines moved materials that were dangerous if released in the environment. Was the problem HFC's or another company's or maybe both or ALL? At the present moment until hazard investigation crews could investigate on- site at all the pipelines, there were more questions than answers. Patel had the accident investigation team dispatched to the area. He was debating whether he should call the other companies to jointly…arrow_forward
